**********NEED HELP WITH 2.3 ESPECIALLY PLEASE ******** AC 2.2
Perform calculations based on results of titrations to obtain a valid result.
(a) Suppose you carried out a titration experiment in which you recorded an average volume of 26 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) by titration with 0.05 moldm-3 and 25 cm3 of potassium hydroxide (KOH). Calculate the concentration of the hydrochloric acid.
Write a balanced formula equation using the word equation given below, for the reaction:
hydrochloric acid + potassium hydroxide -> potassium chloride + water
Equation: .............+.............->................+.............
(b) Suppose the laboratory Technician carried out the same titration experiment in which he/she recorded an average volume of 24.5 cm3 of the dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) by titrating with 0.05 mol dm-3 and 25 cm3 of potassium hydroxide (KOH). Calculate the concentration of hydrochloric acid from the Technicians experiment.
Write a balanced formula equation using the word equation given below, for the reaction:
hydrochloric acid + potassium hydroxide -> potassium chloride + water
Equation: ............+................->...............+............
Summary of steps involved in the above calculation of the concentration of the acid solution:
Complete a balanced equation for the reaction.
Calculate the amount (moles) of potassium hydroxide in 25.00 cm3.
Use this to find the amount (moles) of acid used to react with the potassium hydroxide
Calculate the concentration of the acid using the amount (moles) of acid and the average of your concordant results.
AC 2.3
Analyse the results of an acid base titration & review the method used.
1. Subtract the concentration of hydrochloric acid obtained using your results in (a) above from the concentration obtained using the Technicians results in (b) above:
2. Compare the two values of concentration of the acid and calculate the percentage difference between them using the relationship below:
% difference = difference between 2 concentration values x 100
Technicians concentration value
3. Calculate systematic (apparatus) error.
% Error = error of equipment x 100
amount measured
Standard errors in apparatus are as follows:
25.0 cm3 pipette: \pm 0.06 cm3
Burette (use 24 cm3): \pm 0.1 cm3
