5 (Not q18)

This document provides instructions for making a standard solution in a volumetric flask and questions to test understanding of the technique. It describes weighing a solid, dissolving it in water in a beaker, and pouring the solution into a volumetric flask to the graduation mark. The questions ask to suggest improvements to the instructions, state what a student must do to obtain an accurate average titration, and give the formulae of the main ions in a filtrate from a precipitation reaction between barium chloride and magnesium sulfate solutions.

Section C
These questions test your understanding of the skills and techniques you have
acquired during your AS course.
Answer all questions in the spaces provided.

17

Read the following instructions that describe how to make up a standard solution of a
solid in a volumetric flask.
Answer the questions which follow.
Take a clean 250 cm3 volumetric flask. Use the balance provided and a clean, dry
container, to weigh out the amount of solid required. Tip the solid into a clean, dry
250 cm3 beaker and add about 100 cm3 of distilled water. Use a stirring rod to help the
solid dissolve, carefully breaking up any lumps of solid with the rod. When the solid
has dissolved, pour the solution into the flask using a filter funnel. Add water to the
flask until the level rises to the graduation mark.

Suggest three further instructions that would improve the overall technique in this
