Concentration Of Acid-Base Titration

Titration is the slow adding of one solution of a known concentration (called a titrant) to a known volume of another solution of unknown concentration until the reaction reaches neutralization which is indicated by color change (1). We take the solution of known concentration and carefully mix it with unknown concentration until the solution is concentrated. The main goal of this experiment was to prepare a standard solution of oxalic acid and use it to standardize an unknown sodium hydroxide solution. And finally to determine the molar mass of unknown solid acid by titration with standardized NaOH solution. By weighting a sample prepare a solution of an acid of known concentration. Make it up to a known volume in a volumetric flask. We use

Titration is a technique where a solution of known (acid or base) concentration is used to determine the concentration of an unknown (acid or base) solution.

The results showed the molarity of the NaOH solution. This experiment was completed twice and a new average molarity

In 2 and 7 I added 50 mL of .1 M NaCl. I added sodium acetate to the rest of the beakers: 1 gram to 3 and 8, 5 grams to 4 and 9, and 10 grams to 5 and 10. I then filled the beakers that contained the solid sodium acetate with 50 ml of .10 M acetic acid. Specifics can be found on page 84 of the lab manual. Though the lab manual instructed to use a pipet, we did not have an accurate 1 mL pipet or a graduated pipet, so we instead prepared two graduated burets with 1 M Sodium Hydroxide and 1 M hydrochloric acid. Using a standardized pH probe with a Lab Pro to measure changes in pH, we added 1 mL of HCl at a time and recorded the changes. The same was done for the NaOH.

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to use the three equations of solution chemistry to determine the molarity and percent composition by weight of a solution.

During a titration the pH of the solution will be monitored using a pH meter from that we get a titration curve. The titration curve is then used to determine the equivalent molecular weight and Ka value of the unknown weak acid, from that we are

Therefore, the initial moles of acid and base were expected to be of lower value than those referenced. The dV uncertainty shown in the sample calculations page +/- 0.44 mL displayed this source of error between the calculations of moles of acid, the half equivalence point and the pKa; accounting partially for the percent error in the molar mass and pKa of the unknown acid versus Maleic (C4H4O4). Both Figures 3 and 4 were used to identify unknown acid *B4QK as 3,5 Dimethoxybenzoic (C9H10O4). The titration curve only had one inflection point, thus one equivalence point as demonstrated in Figure 3; showing that the acid was monoprotic. The

The purpose of experiment ten was to collect data on an unknown weak acid by watching and measuring the weak acid being neutralized. This was done by using a Vernier Probe and using the data to figure out the identity of the unknown acid. A weak acid will have a strong conjugate base. The pKa of a weak acid can be taken from the – log (ka) or by using pH. To find the pKa using the graph of the pH in the experiment the equivalence point was found and ½ of this point is the pKa of the unknown weak acid. To determine the molar mass of the unknown acid the moles of base has to be determined along with the mass of the acid (Westfield, n.a). The equivalence point needed to determine the pKa is the point of the titration curve where the pH begins

We also verified the data using a stoichiometric ratio and other molar equations. We completed the lab in this way in order to receive the most accurate results we could, despite experimental errors. In sample A of vinegar, the

By using acid-base titration, we determined the suitability of phenolphthalein and methyl red as acid base indicators. We found that the equivalence point of the titration of hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide was not within the ph range of phenolphthalein's color range. The titration of acetic acid with sodium hydroxide resulted in an equivalence point out of the range of methyl red. And the titration of ammonia with hydrochloric acid had an equivalence point that was also out of the range of phenolphthalein.. The methyl red indicator and the phenolphthalein indicator were unsuitable because their pH ranges for their color changes did not cover the equivalence points of the trials in which they were used. However, the

The purpose of a titration is to discover the concentration of the unknown acid or base. In this case, the experiment uses a strong base to titrate the unknown acid. Once the titration is complete, the data is plotted to create a graph that shows the equivalence point as well as the change in pH with each volumetric addition of NaOH. The equivalence point in the graph is the point where the moles of acid equal the moles of base added, which can be expressed as the equation MaVa = MbVb. On any titration graph involving a monoprotic acid and a strong base, the equivalence point is the center of the steepest part of the graph, also known as the inflection point. This point will be at pH 7 or above, since the titrant is a strong base and the unknown

Conclusion: The purpose of this lab was to find the missing molarity of HCl with the use of titration formula. The molarity of HCl was concluded to be 0.468M. Through the lab experiment it is seemingly shows a neutralization of acid and base creating water and salt in the solution from double replacement reaction. It also presented the relationship of neutralization between an acid and base molarity is equal in terms of volume/ratio of 1:1 in a titration equation.

Titration is a method used to determine an unknown concentration of a known solution. Through this, we may know the chemical that can be dissolved, but not how much of the chemical could be in a specific solution. The purpose of this lab is to be able to determine the concentration of a hydrochloric acid solution using acid base titration in where hydrochloric acid solution is a strong acid and sodium hydroxide is a strong base. In experiment 1, I perform a coarse titration. A coarse titration is a method not very accurate in identifying the end point in the solution, but it does identify the range of titrant volume in which the endpoint happen. In the coarse titration experiment I took a certain amount of sodium hydroxide and added to the

It is believed that a strong acid that is titrated with a strong base will produce a resultant solution has a pH that is slightly over 7. This is because strong acids have a lower pH and solutions that are less basic than weak acids that have been titrated with strong bases. When a weak acid is titrated with a strong base it will produce a resultant solution that is well above 7 because it starts off with a higher pH. Acids and bases with high concentrations result in large changes in pH, while acids and bases with low concentrations result in smaller changes in pH. 1. The titration curve would stop at the equivalence point. This is because the indicator changes the solutions colour at this point.

An acid-base titration is the determination of the concentration of an acid or base by exactly neutralizing the acid/base with an acid or base of known concentration. This allows for quantitative analysis of the concentration of an unknown acid
