Q

is a compound whose purity has been
determined by chemical analysis.
The _____________ serves as the working standard material for titrations and for many other analyses

A

secondary standard

23
Q

In a ____________, the concentration of a volumetric solution is determined by titrating it
against a carefully measured quantity of a primary or secondary standard or an exactly known volume of another standard solution.

A

standardization

24
Q

carefully determined mass of a primary standard is dissolved in a suitable solvent and diluted to a known volume in a volumetric flask

A

direct method

25
the titrant to be standardized is used to titrate (1) a known mass of a primary standard,(2) a known mass of a secondary standard, or (3) a measured volume of another standard solution.
standardization
26
A standardized titrant is sometimes referred to ______, which its conc is also subjected to a larger uncertainty than is the conc of a primary standard solution
secondary-standard solution
27
is the number of equivalents of reagent in the same volume.
normal concentration
28
differ from their volumetric counterparts in that the mass of titrant is measured rather than the volume
mass (weight) or gravimetric titrations
29
most common ways for mass titrations is
weight concentration (mole of solute/kg of solvent)
30
are plots of a concentration-related variable versus titrant volume.
titration curves
31
is a plot of some function of the analyte or titrant concentration on the y-axis versus titrant volume on the x-axis.
titration curve
32
the p-function of analyte (or sometimes the titrant) is plotted as a function of titrant volume
sigmoidal curve
33
measurements are made on both sides of, but well away from, the equivalence point
linear segment curve
34
TRUE or FALSE The sigmoidal type offers the advantages of speed and convenience.
TRUE
35
TRUE or FALSE The linear segment type is advantageous for reactions that are complete only in the presence of a considerable excess of the reagent or analyte.
TRUE
36
Advantages of Gravimetric Titrations
1. calibration of glassware and tedious cleaning ensuring proper drainage is completely eliminated 2. Temperature corrections are unnecessary because the mass (weight) molar concentration does not change with temperature 3. Mass measurements can be made with considerably greater precision and accuracy than can volume measurements. 4. Gravimetric titrations are more easily automated than are volumetric titrations.
37
2 most widely used signals to observe endpoint
(1) changes in color due to the reagent (titrant), the analyte, or an indicator and (2) a change in the potential of an electrode that responds to the titrant concentration or the analyte concentration
38
a titration error in acid-base titrations that occurs when the pH at which the indicator changes color differs from the pH at the equivalence point
determinate error
39
This type of error can usually be minimized by choosing the indicator carefully or by making a blank correction.
determinate error
40
a titration error in acid-base titrations that originates from the limited ability of the human eye to distinguish reproducibly the intermediate color of the indicator
indeterminate error
41
is performed by slowly adding a standard solution from a buret or other liquid-dispensing device to a solution of the analyte until the reaction between the two is judged complete.
titration
42
TRUE or FALSE It is sometimes necessary to add an excess of the standard titrant and then determine the excess amount by back-titration with a second standard titrant
TRUE
43
instruments that can detect end points
calorimeters turbidimeters spectrophotometers temperature monitors refractometers voltmeter current meter conductivity meter
44
TRUE or FALSE purity of such a secondary standard must be established by careful analysis
TRUE
45
ideal standard solution for a titrimetric method should do the following
be sufficiently stable react rapidly with the analyte react more or less completely with the analyte undergo selective reaction with the analyte
46
a titrant that is standardized is sometimes referred to as a
secondary-standard solution
47
TRUE or FALSE The concentration of a secondary-standard solution is subject to a larger uncertainty than is the concentration of a primary-standard solution
TRUE
48
TRUE or FALSE Many reagents lack the properties required for a primary standard and, therefore, require standardization
TRUE
