Since each student prepared their own thiosulfate solution, the students. Precision of
[S2O32-] was analyzed, but their accuracy was not considered. Students precision was
compared using COVPPT based on ≥ 3 replicate titrations. As part of a multi-week lab project
in our quantitative analysis course, second and third year undergraduate chemistry and
biochemistry students determined the mass percent of Co (%Co) in a coordination
compound of unknown (to the student) stoichiometry by performing an iodometric redox
titration using thiosulfate that they standardized. The procedure to determine %Co was
independent of the oxidant used to standardize thiosulfate, but the value of %Co
depended on the accuracy of students (S2O32–) (Randall, 2014: 1332-1333).
Discussion
In this experiment iodine distribution constants have been carried out in the water
chloroform system, where the determination of the distribution coefficient is done through
iodine solutes in chloroform and water solvents. Certain substances are more soluble in
certain solvents compared to other solvents. So iod is far more soluble in carbon disulfide,
chloroform or carbontetrachloride than in water (Svehla, 1990: 139). The basic principle of
this experiment is batch extraction or solvent extraction, this extraction is useful in the
separation of a substance that uses other intermixed solvents (Analytical Chemistry Lecturer
Team, 2017: 5). While the principle of work in this experiment is pengcokan, separation and
titration.
In this experiment, the iodine solution was titrated with 0.1 N sodium thiosulfate
standard solution, where the sodium thiosulfate solution as the primary standard solution
whose concentration was known and the concentration remained in storage. The iodine
solution needs to be standardized so that the concentration can be known as a comparison
with the concentration in water or chloroform.
Titration is done until the color changes from brown (iod color) to clear. Titration is
carried out 3 times in order to obtain more accurate data. At three times the titration, the
volume of sodium thiosulfate solution used was 5.5 mL, 5.2 mL, and 5.3 mL with an average
volume of 5.33 mL. From these results iodine concentrations of 0.106 N. were obtained. The
reaction:
In this experiment, iodine solution was put into three separating funnels after which
chloroform was added and shaken, while the shaking function was to get iod perfectly
distributed into two solvents namely chloroform and water and accelerate the distribution of
iodine caused by collisions between mixed particles is also fast, more lam and powerful way,
shakes iod that is distributed many more. Furthermore the mixture is allowed to stand until
the solution is completely separated into two layers where the lower layer is purple
chloroform while the top layer of water is brown, the formation of these two layers due to
differences in density of water and chloroform where water has a density of 1 gr / ml and
chloroform of 1.48 gr / ml. The two layers are then separated and housed in a sharpened
Erlenmeyer.
The two layers are then titrated using 0.1 N Na2S2O3 standard solution. The
chloroform layer is titrated until the color changes from purple to clear, in the chloroform
penetration process it does not use starch because in chloroform there is an iod where iod is
an autoindicator (can be an indicator for himself). Na2S2O3 0.1 N volume used in
erlenmeyer 1 was 18.5 mL, Erlenmeyer 2 was 18.3 mL, and Erlenmeyer 3 was 18.5 mL so
that iodine concentrations in chloroform were obtained respectively 0.0,074 N, 0.0, 0732 N,
and 0.074 N.
The water layer is then titrated with 0.1 N Na2S2O3 standard solution until the color
changes from brown to clear. In this titration the starch indicator is used to determine whether
all iodine has reacted or not. Na2S2O3 volume of 0.1 N used in erlenmeyer 1 was 6.8 mL,
Erlenmeyer 2 was 8.5 mL, and Erlenmeyer 3 was 8.2 mL to obtain iodine concentration in
water respectively 0.0272 N, 0.034 N, and 0.0328 N.
3. Determination of the Iod Distribution Setting (KD)
From the concentrations obtained in both the aqueous and chloroform layers, the iod
distribution constant (KD) can be obtained by the formula
C 1 [I ¿¿ 2]kloroform
K D= = ¿
C2 [ I 2 ] air
Where KD is the ratio between the concentration of solutes in the organic phase with
the concentration of solutes in the aqueous phase. So from the formula above, KD is obtained
on Erlenmeyer 1 as much as 1.0277 on Erlenmeyer 2 is 2.1470 on Erlenmeyer 3 is 2.3125.
These results indicate that KD> 1 which means iod is more distributed into the chloroform
layer than the water layer. Based on the results of experiments already in accordance with the
theory which states that if the value of KD> 1 then the solute will tend to be distributed into
organic solvents compared to water solvents (Seobagio, 2000).
