VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS
=============================================================================
Chemical analysis is kept under two heads
i) Qualitative ii) Quantitative
1.Qualitative:- Which involves the detection or identification of the constituents in
the given substance or mixture of substances.
2.Quantitative:- Which deals with the actual estimation of an element or a com-
pound or a radical present in the given sample. Of the various methods of quantitative
estimations, volumetric is one of them. It involves the measurement of volumes of the
solutions of reacting substances. From the measured volumes of solutions of the two
and knowing the concentration of one, the concentration of the other can be calcu-
Y
lated using appropriate mathematical formulae.
EM
Titration:- The process of adding one solution from the burette to another present in
the conical flask until the reaction is completed.
Titrant:- The solution taken in the burette.
Titrate:- The solution taken in the conical flask.

Note:- Chemical reactions are represented by means of balanced chemical equations.
In a balanced equation the number of moles of the reacting substances might differ,
but the number of equivalents of reacting substances will remain the same. i.e. one
equivalent of one substance completely reacts with one equivalent of another

Equivalent Mass:- Equivalent mass of a substance depends upon the nature of the
D
chemical reaction in which the substance takes part. The equivalent mass of sub-
a
stance expressed in grams is known as gram equivalent mass. One gram equivalent

Solution:- A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components. If there
are only two components it is said to be a binary solution. The one which is relatively

Secondary standard substance:- Any substance that doesnt satisfy the above condi-
tions is treated as a secondary standard substance.Different substances will have
different reasons for not being considered as primary standard substances
Ex:-
KMnO4 - cannot be used as a primary standard since.
a) it is difficult to get it absolutely free from MnO2
b) Also solutions of KMnO4 get contaminated with MnO2 over a period of time.
NaOH is not a primary standard substance since it is hygroscopic. Like wise

The mass percentage of MnO 2 in the given sample of pyrolusite was determined by
reacting it with As2O3 in acid medium. A sample of 0.3g was ground and boild with 75
mL of 0.0125M As2O3 solution. On completing the reaction the solution is cooled and
titrated against 2.4 102 M KMnO4 and it required 12.5 mL of the solution to reach
the end point (At mass of As = 75, Mn = 55)
