burette
Acid
Conical flask
Alkali plus drops of
indicator
• The acid or any other solution is
placed in the burette and the alkali
plus drops of suitable indicator or
another solution is placed in the
conical flask.
• The acid or solution is added to the
conical flask until there is a colour
change inside the conical flask.
• The point at which the indicator
changes colour is called END-
POINT. At this point, the
reaction in the flask between the
two reactants has stopped.
• The titration is stopped.
Acid- base titration reactions are done using
the following expression.
n =c x v
Where n = number of moles
c = concentration in mol/dm3
v = volume in dm3
nB = c B x v B nA = cA x vA
mole ratio of base to acid:
n B = cB x v B
nA c A x vA
where
nB = moles of base (alkali)
cB = concentration of base(alkali)
vB = volume of base(alkali)
nA = moles of acid
cA = concentration of acid
vA = volume of acid
Example
Calculate the volume of sodium
hydroxide solution required to
neutralize 24.5cm3 of a 0.5mol/dm3
sulphuric acid given that the
concentration of sodium hydroxide is
1.5mol/dm3
Equation:
2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O
nB = moles of base = 2
cB = concentration of base = 1.5mol/dm3
vB = volume of base = VB
nA = moles of acid = 1
cA = concentration of acid = 0.5mol/dm3
vA = volume of acid = 24.5cm3 ( 0.0245dm3 )
1.5 x VB = 2

PERCENTAGE YIELD
• Percentage yield deals with calculations of
products obtained from limiting reactants.
• It is given by the expression:
• 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO
n = m
mm
Mols of Mg = 60g
24g/mol
= 2.5mol
From equation, mol ratio Mg: MgO
2→ 2
2.5 → X
X = 2 x 2.5

= 2.5mol of MgO
mass of MgO produced = 2.5 x 40
= 100g(theoretical yield)
percentage yield = 16.8g x 100
100g
= 16.8%

WATER OF CRYSTALLISATION
• Water of crystallisation is the
definite(fixed)amount of water a
compound needs to form a crystal.
• A hydrated salt is one which contains water
of crystallisation.
• An anhydrous salt is a salt which does not
contain water of crystallisation
EXAMPLES
NAME HYDRATED ANHYDROUS
• Sodium carbonate decahydrate Na2CO3.10H2O Na2CO3
• Copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate CuSO4.5H2O CuSO4
• Calcium nitrate hexahydrate Ca(NO3)2.6H2O Ca(NO3)2
• Zinc sulphate heptahydrate ZnSO4.7H2O ZnSO4
• DELIQUESCENCE
• Deliquescence is the process in which a solid
absorbs water from the air and forms a solution.
Such solids are said to be deliquescent.
Examples
• Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
• Potassium hydroxide (KOH)
• HYGROSCOPY
• Hygroscopy is the process in which a substance
absorbs moisture from the air. Such substances
are said to be hygroscopic.
Examples
• Concentrated sulphuric acid (H2SO4)
• Silicon dioxide (SiO2)
• Calcium oxide (CaO)
• Calcium chloride (CaCl2)
• EFFLORESCENCE
• Efflorescence is a process in which water of crystallization
is lost into the atmosphere. Substances which lose water
to the atmosphere are said to be EFFLORESCENT.
Examples
• Sodium carbonate decahydrate
Na2CO3.10H2O
• Copper(II) sulphatepentahydrate
CuSO 4.5H2O
• Iron(II) sulphateheptahydrate
FeSO4.7H2O
• Sodiumsulphate decahydrate
Na 2SO4.10H2O
• Sodium carbonate decahydrate loses 9 moles of
water when exposed to heat and forms sodium
carbonate monohydrate.
• Na2CO3.10H2O → Na2CO3.H2O + 9H2O
• The terms hydrated and anhydrous mean
containing water and without water respectively.
• Hygroscopic substances are used as drying
agents.
