standard solution Flashcards
These solutions are termed volumetric solutions or standard solutions
They are made as accurately and precisely as possible using three decimal place balances and volumetric flasks to reduce the
impact of measurement uncertainties
step one weigh out
precise mass of solute use weighing boat calculate weighing boat mass first
step 2 add to a ……….. with a small amount of ……….. to help dissolve and stir with a
beaker
water
glass r
step 3 transfer to a …………… using a …………
volumetric flask using a funnel
step 4 add water to fill flask until hits bottom of the……… then add ……… and ………. contents
meniscus
bung
mix
after transfering solution clean with distilled water to make sure no
solid / solution still on apparatus
Calculate the mass of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, required to prepare 250 cm3 of a 0.200 mol dm-3 solution
Answer:
Step 1: Find the number of moles of NaOH needed from the concentration and volume:
number of moles = concentration (mol dm-3) x volume (dm3)
Step 2: Find the molar mass of NaOH
1
Step 3: Calculate the mass required
mass = moles x molar mass
