volumetric analysis Flashcards
what is volumetric?
using a known solution to determine an unknown solution
standards
- known chemical formula
- large molar mass to minimise errors
- do not react with surrounding environment
- cheap and readily available
- pure substance
neutralisation reaction produces
salt and water
washing equiptment
flasks washed with distilled water
burette and pipette with solution they will deliver
integrity of concentration
indicator use
acids and bases are colourless
equivalence point
the point at which the amount of each reactant is equal. the amounts in mol as equal to the stoich
end point
the reaction is over
how do you choose an indicator?
on acids and bases
strong
readily donates and accepts
weak
does not donate or accept readily
dissociate
seperate
ionise
form into ions- acids and bases
