Post Lab Report 6
Introduction
The purpose of this lab is to determine the concentration of HCl when titrated with a standardized NaOH solution, through means of the titration method. My hypothesis is When an unknown concentration of HCl is titrated with a known volume of standardized NaOH solution, one can gather enough data to determine the concentration of the unknown (HCl). My prediction is If an unknown concentration of HCl is titrated with a known volume of NaOH, then one can gather enough data to determine the concentration of the unknown which is HCl.
Procedure
Standardization of ~0.10M HCI

1- Weigh duplicate ~0.15 g samples of previously dried standard Na2CO3 Dissolve samples in ~100-ml distilled water; if it does not dissolve quickly, you may warm the solution.
2 - Cool the solution to room temperature and add ~ 0.5 to 1 ml of bromocresol green indicator,solution turns into blue. Titrate it with HCl until green color is reached. (DO NOT OVER TITRATE) 3 - Heat and boil out CO2gently. You should obtain a blue color again at the end of this step. Cool to room temperature, and continue titration until yellow color is reached. (DO NOT OVER TITRATE)
4 - Calculate the molarity of HCI, it should agree to about two parts per thousand. If they do not agree,repeat the procedure for the third time and take the avg. of the two closest results.

Standardization of ~0.10M NaOH

1- Weigh duplicate samples of 0.50-0.60 g of previously dried standard potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) into 250- ml flasks. Dissolve each sample in ~100- ml boiled distilled water.
2 - Cool to room temperature, add 2-4 drops of phenolphthalein indicator. Titrate it with NaOH until the first appearance of a permanent, pink color.
3 - Back titrate with your standard HCl if you miss the end point. Calculate the molarity of NaOH solution.
4 - If runs do not agree to about two parts per thousand, repeat for the third time

    The results for example 2 might have been off, when titrating the solution we added too much HCl and turned the solution yellow instead of green. So instead of boiling the solution until it turned blue again, we had to boil the solution to evaporate the water. That may have thrown off the amount of NaCl that was supposed to form after the water…

    Titration is a method, which is meant to find the concentration of either an acid or a base by adding a measured amount of it to a known volume and concentration of an acid or base1. Titration starts with a beaker or Erlenmeyer flask containing a very precise volume of the known concentration solution and a small amount of indicator, which is put underneath a burette containing the solution with unknown concentration1. Small drops of the titrant are then added to the known solution and indicator until the indicator changes which means the endpoint has been reached. Single drops of the titrant can sometimes make a permanent or temporary change in the indicator2.…

    Used a pipette to measure accurately the volume of this solution. For example, 25cm3. Safety pipette filler will be used to draw solution into the pipette. then it will be emptied into a conical flask add three to four drops of an indicator of methyl orange solution to the conical flask and note it will show a colour change. After that record the initial reading of the burette and making sure that all your burette readings must be to an appropriate precision.…

    7.46 X 10-2 moles of HCl X 2 = .1492 moles of HCl used and the molarity would be .1492 moles HCl/ .05 liters HCl = 2.984 molarity. The amount of unreacted HCl in the solution is shown here: 0.1492 moles used - .0746 moles needed = 0.0746 moles unreacted. The amount of NaOH moles needed to completely react with this excess HCl is .0746 moles of HCl and .0746 moles of NaOH. To titrate the excess HCl you would need a molarity of 2.984 NaOH. In the equation Zn(s) + 2HCl (aq) = H2 (g) + ZnCl2 (aq) ZnCl2 is soluble. When using NaOH the equation would be ZnCl2 + 2NaOH = Zn (OH)2 + ZnCl and Zn(OH)2 has a low solubility.…

    1. By exhaling out carbon dioxide into the straw on top of the bromothymol blue indicator, the solution will turn the color blue into a yellowish-green color. When there is a presence of something that is acidic the BTB indicator changes its color into yellow/green. So in this case, the water with BTB and carbon dioxide exhaled into the flask creates a carbonic acid. As an aerobic activity increase than the carbon dioxide rate increases as well.…
