Aim of the experiment:
The aim is to determine the water of crystallization of a diprotic acid by titration against a base.

Background:
Many substances that we use are either acidic or basic. Because acids and bases can neutralize each other, that gives us a strategy for finding the unknown concentration of an acid or base when we react with bases in a stoichiometric process we call neutralization. Generally the products of these reactions are some type of salt and water.

H+(aq) + OH-(aq) H2O(l)

Hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide shown by this equation:
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H2O

Safety: * Oxalic acid is naturally occurring, therefore is not an environmental hazard. * Disposable of all chemicals can be down the sink * Take care not to splatter the solutions of your skin or eyes. * Wear safety gear throughout the experiment.

Apparatus and chemicals: * Oxalic acid crystals [(COOH) 2. xH2O] * 1.0M sodium hydroxide solution * Phenolphthalein indicator * DI water * Volumetric flask (250 ml) * Conical flask * Burette * Burette stand * Pipette * Measuring cylinder * White tile * Beaker * Safety goggles and gloves
Method:
1. Weigh out exactly 1.50g of oxalic acid crystals and dissolve with water and make up its volume in a 250ml volumetric flask. Fill this in the burette and attach to a burette stand. 2. In a clean conical flask, pipette out 25.00ml of sodium hydroxide solution and add 1-2 drops of the phenolphthalein indicator. 3. Titrate against the

    Metals are mined from ores, considering yield to see if it is economically viable for a business to mine at a particular site. However, due to environmental damage and global warming, recycling has increased globally to create a sustainable future. By examining the cost and energy expenditure of recycling and extracting aluminium we can understand why recycling is a better choice than extracting metal from its ore.…
