Q

What is a standard solution

A

•A solution of accurately known solution.

•They are often prepared and used in titrations as the reactant of known concentrations.

Q

Standard solution

A

•dissolve required substance into small volume of deionised water

•make up solution until graduation mark with de-ionised water, stopper and invert to mix evenly

•transfer solution into volumetric flask with washings

Q

2 pieces of accurate glassware for accurate measurement

A

Burette

Pipette

Much more accurate than measuring cylinder

17
Q

2 types of Pippetes

A

Volumetric and graduated

18
Q

Graduated pipettes

A

•Measure any whole volume up to their maximum volume

19
Q

Volumetric pippetes

A

Have no scale on the side of them and can measure the set volume they are designed for

So if made for 25cm3 they can only measure a volume of 25cm3

20
Q

Burrtte

A

Used to accurately add small volumes of substance to a reaction

•unlike pipette a burette will allow you to add decimal point volumes to a reaction as it has 0.1cm graduation marks on scale
