EXPERIMENT 2 – ACID-BASE TITRATIONS, CHEM 240
Titrimetric analysis of polyprotic acids
AIM: The aim of this experiment was to study acid-base titrations using the potentiometric end point detection. First we standardized the sodium hydroxide solution necessary for titrations and determined the content of citrate in a sample of Enerlyte powder for rehydration.
PROCEDURE: The experiment is done by following the procedure given for the EXP. 2: Acid-Base Titrations, CHEM 240.
Enerlyte:
Expire: 11/16
Batch number: LoTF03L81
Label claim sodium acid citrate 0.53g
Mass Sachet = 5.1268 ± 0.0001 g
Citric acid mass = 0.60739 ± 0.0001 g
Disodium citrate mass = 2.5850 ± 0.0001 g
c(HCl) = 0.1015 mol/L
Errors:
5mL pipette ± 0.01
10mL pipette ± 0.04
RESULTS:
All titrations were performed using autotitrator Metrohm 785 Titrino system. The change of pH is detected by the Metrohm combined glass electrode.
I Strong Acid (HCl) Titration / Standardisation of NaOH titrant
The solution of NaOH is standardized using the standard solution of HCl.( c(HCl) = 0.1015 mol/L). The aliquot of 5.00 mL of HCl standard solution was transferred using a pipette into a titration vessel, diluted with approximately 65 mL of deionized water and titrated using the NaOH solution of unknown concentration.
