Titration What are titrations used for
Finding concentration of acid or alkali solutions
36
Titration Method
2. Use a pipette and pipette filler to transfer 25.0 cm3 of known solution to a conical flask. 3. Add a few drops of indicator to the flask. 4. Using the funnel, rinse then fill the burette with the unknown solution and record initial 5. Titrate theknown solution with the unknown solution , with constant swirling, until the end point is reached . This is your rough titration. 6. Repeat your titration accurately until you have three concordant results. You may wish to keep the solution from your first accurate titration in order to achieve consistency by colour matching. 7. Ensure that you have recorded all of your results, with burette readings to the nearest 0.05 cm3. 8. Find titre by doing final-initial
37

41
Titration what colour does phenolphthalein indicate

42
Titration Why is universal indicator no use in titration

43
Titration What are titrations done with
Standard solutions
44
Titration What is an analyte
Unknown solution
45
Titration What’s a standard solution
A solution that has a precisely known concentration
46
Titration How do you make a standard solution
-Using a precise balance, carefully weigh out the required mass of solid onto a weighing boat. -Transfer this solid to a beaker. Use some distilled water to wash any bits of solid from the weighing boat into the beaker. -Add water to the beaker to completely dissolve the solid -Use a glass rod to stir the solution to help the solid dissolve. -Once the solid has dissolved, transier the solution into a volumetric flask. You'll need to use a volumetric flask that's the same size as the volume of solution you want to make up. -Rinse the beaker and glass rod with water, transferring this water into the volumetric flask. -Use water to fill the volumetric flask up to the graduation line. Use a pipette to add the final few drops to make sure you don't add too much water and overshoot the graduation line. -Put the lid on the flask and turn the flask over a few times to thoroughly mix the solution.
47
Titration What can you calculate from a titration
Concentrations
48
Titration How do you do a titration calculation
1. Balance equation 2. And in table write molratio, con, vol, mol for each of what you know *using the right units 3. Work moles of both using con=mol/vol then mol ratio 4. Using con=mol/vol to find concentration
49
Titration What is a polyproptic acids
Acids that donate more than one proton
50
Titration What is a diprotic acid
Acid that donates two protons
51
Titration Example of diprotic acid
Sulphuric acid H2SO4
52
Titration Example of triprotic acid
Donates three protons eg phosphoric acid H3PO4
53
Titration How does a polyproptic acid change calculating titrations
Need double or triple number of moles to neutralise acid
54
Titration How to convert from mol dm^-3 to g dm^-3
Times by Mr
55
Titration What is aback titration used for
Done to analys a chase or acid that does not treat easily or quickly with a base or acid
56
Titration What is done in back titrations
Base or acid is treated with and excess of acid or base hen left over is then titration which can be used to work back to find about original acid or base
57
Acids and bases How can an acid be both high concentration yet a weak acid
Molecules only partially ions in the solution but there is still lots of acid particle in the volume of solutions
58
Acids and bases How can and acid be a dilute solution of a strong acid
Molecules fully ionise in solution but only few acid particles in the volume of solution
59

63
Acids and bases What are spectator ions
Ions which don’t charge and aren’t used in a reaction
64
Acids and bases What type of reaction is acid + metal and why
Redox hydrogen ions in acid gain electrons so are reduced Metal lose electrons so are oxidised

70
Oxidation numbers Half equation for oxidation of magnesium
Mg —> Mg 2+ + 2 e-
71
Oxidation numbers Half equation for reduction of oxygen
1/2 O2 + 2e- —> O2-
72
Oxidation numbers What happens to atoms when they react or bond to other atoms
Lose or gain electrons
73
Oxidation numbers What dos the oxidation number tell you
How many electron an atom has donated or accepted to form an ion or to form part of a compound
74
Oxidation numbers Rule for elements
All uncombined element and elements bonded to identical elements have an oxidation number of 0 which means they haven’t accepted or donated any electrons
75
Oxidation numbers Rule for oxidation number of a simple monatomic ion
Oxidation number is the same as its charge Eg Na+ has an oxidation number of +1 and Mg2+ has an oxidation number of +2
76
Oxidation numbers Rule for molecular ions
Sum of oxidation numbers is the same as the overall charge of the ion so each of the atoms within the ion will have oxidation’s number which add up to the overall charge
77
Oxidation numbers Rule for a neutral compound
Overall oxidation number is 0and each elements have own oxidation number which add up to 0
78
Oxidation numbers Oxidation number of oxygen and exceptions
Nearly always 0 except in peroxides (O2 2-) where its -1 and molecular oxygen (O2) where its 0
79
Oxidation numbers Oxidation number of hydrogen and exceptions
Always +1 except in metal hydrides (MH x ) where its -1 and in molecular hydrogen (H2( where its 0
80
Oxidation numbers When are roman numerals used
If an element can have multiply oxidation number os isn’t in its normal oxidation state eg (l) = +1, (ll) = +2 and (lll) = +3
81
Oxidation numbers What is a reducing agent
Provides the electrons for another substance to be reduced and itself is oxidised
82
Oxidation numbers What is an oxidising agent
Accepts electrons from another substance fort hate to be oxidised and itself is reduced
83
Oxidation numbers Oxidation number for metals
Have positive values in compounds Value is normally that of group number Values can go no higher than the group number

Element had gained electrons and been reduced
90
Redox reactions Steps to balance a half equations
1. Work out formula before and after 2. Work out oxidation state of element for before and after 3. Add electrons to one side so oxidation’s states balance 4. If overall charge on both sides aren’t equal add H+ ions (protons) to one side to balance 5. If still don’t balance, add water molecules to one side
91
Redox reactions Steps to construct balanced redox equations
1. Write out two half equations 2. Multiply equation s so the the number of electrons balance in both equations 3. Add two equations together and cancel out electrons 4. Cancel our anything else which appears on both sides
