Q

● 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
● The appearance of a color is more easily
observable than is the disappearance
○ Therefore, always titrate where possible
to the appearance of a color

A

ACIDIMETRIC ANALYSIS

35
Q

2 types of ACIDIMETRIC ANALYSIS

A
  • DIRECT TITRATION
  • RESIDUAL TITRATION
36
Q

A.k.a. BACK TITRATION

A

RESIDUAL TITRATION

36
Q

Used when ever the end point of a direct titration
deviates appreciably from the stoichiometric
points for some reason; e.g, when the basic
sample is insoluble in water and rate of its
reaction with the standard acid is relatively slow

A

RESIDUAL TITRATION

36
Q

Conducted by introducing a standard acid
solution gradually from a burette into a solution of the base being assayed until chemically equivalent amounts of each have reacted as shown by some change in properties of the mixture

A

DIRECT TITRATION

37
Q

When the substance to be assayed does not
give a distinct, sharp end point with an indicator by direct titration

A

RESIDUAL TITRATION

38
Q

ASSAY OF SODIUM BICARBONATE - DIRECT
TITRATION

A
  • METHYL ORANGE
39
Q

A macro method in which the ammonia is
distilled into excess boric acid solution.

A

METHOD I

39
Q

ASSAY OF ZINC OXIDE - RESIDUAL
TITRATION

A

● Freshly ignited zinc oxide, contains nlt 99% and nmt 100.5% of ZnO
● Methyl orange – indicator
● Titrant – 1N H2SO4 and 1N NaOH
● The equivalent weight is 40.68g, therefore each mL of 1N H2SO4
○ 1 mEq neutralized by ZnO is equivalent
to 40.68 mg

39
Q

Used as indicator because
phenolphthalein and most other
indicators are affected by the carbonic
acid liberated in the reaction, which
causes a change in color before the
reaction is complete

56
Q

The disadvantage of poor solubility and weak
reactivity with water were overcome
● Simplicity, speed, precision, and accuracy are equivalent to those of the classical procedures

A

ADVANTAGES of ALKALIMETRIC ANALYSIS

57
Q

● Moisture is to be avoided, since H2O, being
weakly basic, would compete with the weak nitrogen base for the HClO4 and the sharpness of the end point would be lost
● Greater care in the control of temperature during the standardization, and analysis procedures is necessary

A

Q

chloroform, benzene, dioxane,
or ethyl acetate are either
aprotic or amphiprotic in nature
and are used for their solvency
