Lab Report #1 Acid- Base Titration of Acetic Acid in Vinegar with Sodium Hydroxide
Le 1 Joanna Le Professor Dr. Gray Chemistry 1A - Section 3 16 November 2023 INTRODUCTION : Titration is used to determine the molar concentration of an unknown solution by slowly adding a solution of known concentration to a known volume of a solution of unknown concentration. When the two solutions mix and undergo a chemical reaction, an indicator present in the solution will reveal a sudden physical change called the End Point. In this experiment, the acetic acid (CH 3 COOH) in commercial vinegar will be titrated with a solution of known concentration of standardized sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The balanced chemical reaction (CH 3 COOH (aq) + NaOH (aq) → CH 3 COONa (aq) + H 2 O (l) ) demonstrates that exactly one mole of NaOH must be added to one mole of acetic acid to complete the reaction; this point when equal amounts of acid and base are present is called the Equivalence Point. The indicator added to the acid, Phenolphthalein, will remain colorless until the equivalence point has been crossed; this is when the solution turns basic and the phenolphthalein becomes light pink. To remain as close to the equivalence point as possible, the base will be added drop by drop via a microburette, and the titration will be stopped at the appearance of the first permanent light pink color. PURPOSE : To calculate the concentration of acetic acid in vinegar through an acid- base titration. MATERIALS : Please refer to page 5 of the lab handout. PROCEDURE : Please refer to pages 6-8 of the lab handout.
