Materials

 Burette
 Burette Clamp
 Ring stand
 Small funnel
 125mL Erlenmeyer Flask

 Beaker/flask of titrant
 Beaker/flask of analyte
 Indicator
 Reading card
 Sheet of white paper

IV. DATA and OBSERVATION (can be in narrative or table form)

In an acid – base titration, the titration curve reflects the strengths of the
corresponding acid and base. If one reagent is a weak acid or base and the
other is a strong acid or base, the titration curve is irregular, and the pH shifts
less with small additions of titrant near the equivalence point. An acid-base
titration is a quantitative analysis of acids and bases; through this process, an
acid or base of known concentration neutralizes an acid or base of unknown
concentration. The titration progress can be monitored by visual indicators,
pH electrodes, or both. When chemicals are introduced to an acidic solution,
they turn a different color. The indicator used in the experiment or film is
phenolphthalein. An unknown concentration (1.0 solution) and the other
reactant (Hydrochloric acid) and the result is 25ml of 1.013M HCI and 21.5ml
of NaOH. The concentration of the original NaOH solution is 1.17M.

V. QUESTIONS FOR ANALYSIS


1. What are the notable laboratory procedures that is shown in the
experiment or video?

The notable laboratory procedure that is shown in the experiment is setting


up where preparing the burette for titration which is a laboratory practice to
rinse it thoroughly with deionized water then with a small amount of titrant.
After each rinse open the stop cock to allow the liquid to drain at the bottom.
If there is a lot of liquid clinging to the walls of the burette then thoroughly
clean your burette and repeat the rinse process. The accuracy of this
technique is dependent on the titrant flowing into the flask and not sticking
to the burette. Mount the burette in the clamp, making sure it is positioned
vertically and there is enough room to position your flask underneath the tip.
Check to see that the stopcock is in the close position. Check the column for
the air bubble and gently tap to free them from the sidewalls. It is important
to accurately read the volume on the burette. Read from bottom of meniscus
at eye level. Read the volume to the correct number of significant figures.
Record Volume to one decimal place beyond smallest graduation. Use
average volume of titrant required for calculation.

2. What are the reactants of the reaction?

A burette is used to mix the reactants together. The analyte is a reactant with
an unknown concentration (1.0 solution) that is placed into an Erlenmeyer
flask. The other reactant (Hydrochloric acid) is kept in a burette and will be
given during the process. The titrant is the name for it.

3. What are the products of the reaction?

The endpoint is the point at which the indicator changes color. In an acid-
base titration, adding an indicator to the analyte solution allows us to clearly
recognize the equivalence point. In an acid-base titration, the endpoint is the
point at which the indicator changes color. We either add acid to the base or
the base to the acid in acid-base titrations. In both cases, the titration tests
result in the production of salt and water.

4. Describe what would have happened in one of the titrations if you had
forgotten to add phenolphthalein to the sample flask.

There would be no chemical reaction or color change if the phenolphthalein


was not added to the Erlenmeyer flask. As a result, the pH of the solution will
not change, and you will not be able to determine the equivalence point.

VI. CONCLUSIONS

Titration is the process of gradually adding a basic solution to an acidic


solution until complete neutralization is achieved. The titration's 'end point' is
identified using an indicator which the experiment uses phenolphthalein as
the color of the solution changes upon neutralization. Titration is a frequently
used analytical technique in the food industry. It enables food makers to
calculate the amount of a reactant present in a sample. It can be used to
determine the amount of salt or sugar in a food, as well as the concentration
of vitamin C or E, which affects the color of the product. A titration is a cycle in
which a known amount of a material is allowed to react with a subsequent
arrangement having an unknown grouping of another chemical that will react
with the main ingredient in a predictable and repeatable manner. The
principles of titration were enforced during the experiment, which is a
technique for estimating either the concentration of an unknown molarity
solution or the number of moles of a material in a given sample, both of
which were determined in this experiment. Other important principles
reinforced during the experiment included standardization, which is
determining the exact concentration of a solution; primary standard, which is
a pure and stable reagent; end-point, which is the completion of a reaction;
and indicators, which are substances that give observable signs when
something is present or absent.
