a.k.a. as Volumetric Analysis
Titrimetric Methods of Analysis
analytical method in which the volumes of a
solution of known concentration consumed during an analysis is taken as a measure of the amount of active constituent in a sample being analyzed
Titrimetric Methods of Analysis
Types of Chemical Reactions in
Titrimetric Analysis
- Neutralization (acid-base) in aqueous and
nonaqueous solvents. - Oxidation-reduction
- Precipitation
- Complexation
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
Titrimetric Methods of Analysis
are complex organic compounds used
to:
* determine the end point in neutralization
process,
* determined hydrogen-ion concentrations pH, or
* indicate that a desired chance in pH has been
affected.
INDICATORS
Requirements of Titrimetric Methods of Analysis
- Reaction must proceed to completion, that is, the chemical equilibrium constant K must be equal to or greater than 108
- The reaction must proceed in a stoichiometric manner
- A suitable end-point-directing device must be available
- For direct titrimetric methods the reaction must be rapid so a sharp end point is desirable.
used to sharpen up the color
change.
MIX INDICATORS
Rules for the Use of Indicators
- Use 3 drops of indicator test solution for a titration unless otherwise directed.
- When a strong acid is titrated with a strong alkali, or a strong alkali with a strong acid, methyl orange, methyl red, or phenolphthalein may be used.
- When a weak acid is titrated with a strong alkali, use phenolphthalein as the indicator.
- When a weak alkali is titrated with a strong acid, use methyl red as the indicator.
- A weak alkali should never be titrated with a weak acid, or vice versa, since no indicator will give a sharp end point
