C4 - YEAR 11 Flashcards
What is titration ?
-Used to measure accuratley , what volumes of acid an alkali react together completely .
-It is ofn used to calcualte the concentration of an UNKNOWN SOLUTIOn by heating it witha s olution of a known concentration .
CONCORDNT VOLUMES - TWO VOLUMES WITHIN 0.1CM SQUARED (ignnore and nonconcordant volumes in your mean . )
S1 of titration rqp
-Why use concial flask .
Use a pipette , to transfer 25cm cubed of sodium hydroxide solution into a concical flask .
-Conical flask reduces the risk of splashing .
Why is is it mprotant you allow the liquid to DRAIN OUT , of the pipette , rather than blowing it out using the pipette filler .
-Blowng the liquid out , will you give an incorrext value .
S2 of titration rqp
-Add solutions of indicaor , such as methyl orange , to the alkali in the conical flask .
S3 of titration rqp
Place the conical flask on a whie tile , so we can see he colour change more clearly .
S4 of titration rqp
Fill a biurette with sulfuric acid .
S5 of titration rqp
Add acid to the alkali , until the solution is neutral .
-Weus need to add enoguh acid for this to happen .
S6 of titration rqp
-Once we see a colour change , we now add the acid dop , by drop until the solution is netural .
S7 of the titration rqp .
It is improtant to swril the solution , to mak sure the acid + alkali mix .
S8 of titration rqp
-We need to red the volume of acid ,a dded from the biurette .
IMPORTANT TO READ IT CORRECTY
-sO MAKE SURW , it is at eye level with the surfsce ofr the liquid .
-The surface of the liquid naturally cuvres ,
-Scientiss claal this MENISCUS .
-SO read tge yrette at tge BOTTON IF TGE NEBUSCYS ,
S9 of titration rqp
-We usually repeat thsi titration several times until we gget two readings wwithin cm cubed ,
-We then take a meanv alue of this for a final volume.
S10 of titration rqp
-So now we have the volume + the concenration of the alkali .
-+the volume of the acid , eeded to neturlaise the alkali , we can now use this o calculte their concentrations of the acid .
do practice questions on titration .
..
How do we calculate percentage yield ?
Work out the mass first.
What neeeds to occur for 100 % yield .
-ever single atom of the reactants must to react to produce the products .
