    Double Titration

    This experiment aims to determine the composition of a sodium carbonate mixture sample through titration. Sodium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid in two stages, first forming sodium hydrogen carbonate and then sodium chloride. The student will titrate the sample solution with hydrochloric acid using phenolphthalein and methyl orange indicators to find the volumes of acid needed for each reaction stage. From these volumes and some given constants, the student can then calculate the composition of sodium carbonate and sodium hydrogen carbonate in the original sample.

    Chemistry Experiment
    Double Indicator Titration 1

    Aim
    The purpose of this experiment is to find the composition of a sample of sodium 
    carbonate mixture by titration.

    Introduction
    The reaction between sodium carbonate and hydrochloric acid occurs in 2 stages, with 
    the formation of hydrogen carbonate ion as the intermediate product.

    Na2CO3(aq)  +  HCl      NaHCO3(aq)  +  NaCl(aq)
    NaHCO3(aq)  +  HCl(aq)     NaCl(aq)  +  H2O(l)  +  CO2(g)

    Requirements
    Hydrochloric acid (0.5M), watch glass, spatula, 250 cm3 beaker, wash bottle of distilled 
    water, glass rod, 250 cm3 volumetric flask, filter funnel, dropper, burette, stand, beakers 
    X 2, 100 cm3 pipette, 25 cm3 pipette filler, sodium carbonate mixture, 250 cm3 conical 
    flasks X 3, white tile, phenolphthalein, methyl orange indicator

    Procedure
    Part I

    1. Transfer 10.00g of the sample onto the watch glass and weigh it to the nearest 
    0.01g.

    2. Prepare a solution of the sample in 250 ml volumetric flask.

    3. Using the funnel, rinse the burette with the hydrochloric acid and fill it with the 
    same acid. Do not forget to rinse and fill the tip. Record the initial burette reading 
    in the ‘Trial’ column of the Results Table.

    4. Using a pipette filler, rinse the pipette with some of the sample solution and 
    carefully transfer 25.00cm3 of the solution to a clean 250cm3 conical flask.

    5. Add 2–3 drops of the phenolphthalein indicator solution.

    6. Run hydrochloric acid from the burette into the flask, with swirling, until the solu­
    tion just turn color (Pink to colorless). 
    Recor d the final burette reading.

    7. Refill the burette with the hydrochloric acid, and again record the initial burette 
    reading to the nears 0.05 cm3 (one drop).

    8. Add 2–3 drops of the Methyl Orange indicator solution.

    9. Run hydrochloric acid from the burette into the flask, with swirling, until the solu­
    tion just turn color (Yellow to Orange).  Record the final burette reading.
    (The first flask may be used as a trial run, because you will probably overshoot the 
    end­point.)

    10. Repeat steps 4–9 at least three times more.

    11. Empty the burette and wash it carefully immediately after the titration, especially 
    if it has a ground glass tap.

    Results and Calculations 
    Using your data, you can fill in the Results Tables.
