MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Before the acetic acid solution could be titrated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), the actual concentration of NaOH needed to be determined. By way of standardization, the actual concentration of NaOH was established, to account for the fact that the solid is not pure and for its tendency to react with carbon dioxide in the air.
A 50 mL burette (±0.01 mL, Kimax) was rinsed thoroughly, twice with reverse osmosis water, and then twice with approximately 5 mL of ~0.25 M NaOH solution (Fisher Scientific, Certified ACS Pellets, S318-3). A 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask (Fischer) was obtained and 0.999 g of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP, C8H5KO4) (Acros Organics, 99+%, Code: 417955000, Lot: A0358893) was added. A precision balance

Three drops of the indicator, phenolphthalein, was added to the flask containing the dissolved KHP. The burette was then filled with ~0.25 M NaOH, using a glass funnel, and a small amount was drained in order to remove the remaining air from the tip. The initial volume of the burette was recorded to the nearest hundredth milliliter. The flask was placed under the burette and slowly, the NaOH was drained into the KHP solution, with constant mixing. The burette continued to be drained until the KHP solution changed from a clear color, to a persistent light pink, indicating the end …show more content…
Exactly 10.00 mL of vinegar (Stop and Shop Distilled White Vinegar, All Natural, 5% Acidity) was added to a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask, using a 50 mL burette. Three drops of phenolphthalein indicator were mixed into the flask. The initial volume of the burette containing the NaOH was recorded to the nearest hundredth milliliter. The flask containing the vinegar was placed under the 50 mL burette and slowly, the NaOH was drained into the flask, with constant mixing. The burette continued to be drained until the acetic acid solution changed from a clear color, to a persistent light pink, indicating the end point of the titration. The final volume of the burette was then recorded to the nearest hundredth milliliter and the difference between the initial and final volumes was calculated; 31.35 mL or 0.03135 L. This volume in liters was multiplied by the concentration of the NaOH solution, 0.2838 M to determine the number of moles of acetic acid solution. This value was then divided by the volume of acetic acid solution originally added to the flask, 10.00 mL or 0.01 L, to obtain the molarity of the acetic acid solution; 0.8903 M. This process was replicated exactly a second and third time. The second titration required 31.39 mL of NaOH to be added, resulting in an acetic acid molarity of 0.8915 M. The third titration required 31.44 mL of
...ost likely to be battery acid. If it is water, it has a Ph level of around 7. For vinegar, the Ph level is approximately 2.4 - 3.4. Thus, once testing the liquid compare it with the Ph levels above to discover the mystery solution.
20.0cm3 of 0.10M ethanoic acid was pipetted into a conical flask. 3. 0.10M sodium hydroxide solution was titrated using phenolphthalein as indicator, until the solution was just turned pink. 4. A further 20.0cm3 of the same ethanoic acid solution was added to the flask and was mixed thoroughly.
Firstly, an amount of 40.90 g of NaCl was weighed using electronic balance (Adventurer™, Ohaus) and later was placed in a 500 ml beaker. Then, 6.05 g of Tris base, followed by 10.00 g of CTAB and 3.70 g of EDTA were added into the beaker. After that, 400 ml of sterilized distilled water, sdH2O was poured into the beaker to dissolve the substances. Then, the solution was stirred using the magnetic stirrer until the solution become crystal clear for about 3 hours on a hotplate stirrer (Lab Tech® LMS-1003). After the solution become clear, it was cool down to room temperature. Later, the solution was poured into 500 ml sterilized bottle. The bottle then was fully wrapped with aluminium foil to avoid from light. Next, 1 mL of 2-mercaptoethanol-β-mercapto was added into fully covered bottle. Lastly, the volume of the solution in the bottle was added with sdH2O until it reaches 500 ml. The bottle was labelled accordingly and was stored on chemical working bench.
neutralize 35ml of our base. Once we weighed out the KHP we then dissolved it
Then, I added 8 drops of concentrated phosphoric acid to the mixture. swirling it a few times. Then, I carefully took the flask to the station as I avoided trying to breath the vapors of the acetic anhydride. I put the e-flask into the beaker of water sitting on the hot plate in order to heat it for seven minutes. Once the seven minutes was up, my partner carried the e-flask to the fume hood, and added 3 mL of de-ionized water to the flask. She swirled it for a couple of minutes there. She brought it back tot he station where I gradually added 60 Ml of de-ionozed water to the mixture while my partner stirred the mixture constantly. I was able to see some of the aspirin beginning to form. In order to complete the crystallization process we cooled the flask in an ice-water bath from 4:00 until 4:20. As we waited I began to set up our filtration system. I used a ring stand, right angel clamp, three finger clamp, Buchner funner, filtering flask,rubber tubing, and filter paper in the Buchner funnel. I turned on the aspirator and pored some water over the filtering paper in order to create a good
Furthermore, when phosphoric acid was added during the experimental process, the solution was turned into bright orange. The purpose for pouring the reaction mixture into sodium acetate solution is to raise the PH value and precipitate the product. In addition water and sodium bicarbonate solution is used in this reaction in order to remove the remaining acid from the organic layer. The organic layer also must be dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The product was looked like red-brown solid when evaporator was used in order to remove the solvent.
Titration of sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide I was asked to find the concentration of a solution of sodium
Neutralization Experiment AIM:- To investigate how heat is given out in neutralizing sodium hydroxide (NaOH) using different concentrations of Hydrochloric Acid. Background Information:- Substances that neutralize acids are called alkalis. An acid is a substance that forms hydrogen ions (H+ ) when placed in water. It can also be described as a proton donor as it provides H+ ions. An example of an acid is hydrochloric acid (HCl), Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) etc.
The sample was subjected to steam distillation as illustrated in Figure 1. A total of 50ml of distillate was collected while recording the temperature for every 5.0 ml of distillate. The distillate was transferred into a 250ml Erlenmeyer flask and 3.0 g of NaCl was added. The flask was cooled and the content was transferred into a 250-ml separatory funnel. Then 25.0ml of hexane was added and the mixture was shaken for 5 minutes with occasional venting. The aqueous layer was discarded and the organic layer was left inside. About 25.0ml of 10% NaOH was then added and the mixture was shaken as before. The aqueous layer was collected and then cooled in an ice bath. It was then acidified with enough 6.00 M HCl while the pH is being monitored with red litmus paper. Another 25.0 ml of hexane was added and the mixture was shaken as before. The hexane extract was saved and a small amount of anhydrous sodium sulfate was added. The mixture was then swirled for a couple of minutes then filtered. A small amount of the final extracted was tested separately with 1% FeCl3 and Bayer’s reagent.
Acid-Base Titration I. Abstract The purpose of the laboratory experiment was to determine equivalence. points, pKa, and pKb points for a strong acid, HCl, titrated with a. strong base, NaOH using a drop by drop approach in order to determine. completely accurate data. The data for this laboratory experiment is as follows.
Some improvements to the experiment might be using Na Acetate or Na Citrate as buffers instead of KHPO4. The pH ranges are 4.5-5.5 and 4.7-5.5, respectively. This range falls closer to the ideal pH of 5, then KHPO4 (pH
vii. This would allow the determination of the percentage of citric acid in the lemon juice specifically, rather than the total acidity. The results of this could have been compared to those of the titration, and the contribution of citric acid to the overall initial acidity could have been determined.
Pour 1.40g of NaOH into florence flask and add 350ml distilled water, then swirl it and invert flask five times with parafilm on the top of it. Next, obtained a vial of KHP from the instructor, and poured about 0.408g into three different Erlenmeyer flasks by measuring with analytical balance. Then, fill up about 25ml of distilled water, add 3 drops of phenolphthalein into it and mix them well with a glass rod. Label all solutions to prevent mixing them up. Before the titration began, the buret should be rinsed with NaOH solution and recorded the initial buret reading.
For this experiment we used titration to standardize the exact concentration of NaOH. Titration is the process of carefully adding one solution from a buret to another substance in a flask until all of the substance in the flask has reacted. Standardizing is the process of determining a solutions concentration. When a solution has been standardized it is referred to as a standard solution. To know when a solution is at its end point an indicator is added to acidic solution. An indicator is an organic dye that is added to an acidic solution. The indicator is one color is in the acidic solution and another color in the basic solutions. An end point occurs when the organic dye changes colors to indicate that the reaction is over (Lab Guide pg. 141).
