Experiment No. (1) :-Preparation and Standardization of 0.1 M (HCL) Hydrochloric Acid Solution

Uploaded by

Faisal Nawaz

This experiment involves preparing a 0.1M hydrochloric acid solution by diluting concentrated HCl and standardizing it using a 0.1M sodium carbonate solution, where the acid-base neutralization reaction is monitored using methyl orange indicator which changes color at the endpoint. The concentration of the prepared HCl solution is then determined through titration calculations based on the reaction stoichiometry and volumes added during the titration process.

Experiment No.(1):- Preparation and standardization of 0.

1
M(HCl) hydrochloric acid solution
Theory:- Hydrochloric acid is produced in solutions up to 38% HCl
(concentrated grade). Higher concentrations up to just over 40% are
chemically possible, but the evaporation rate is then so high that storage and
handling need extra precautions, such as pressure and low temperature.
Laboratory grade hydrochloric acid is not sufficiently pure to be used as a
primary standard, because it evaporates easily. In this experiment, a standard
solution of sodium carbonate is used to determine the exact concentration of
a hydrochloric acid solution. The neutralization reaction that occurs is as
follows:

Na2CO3 + 2HCl  2NaCl + H2O + CO2

Methyl orange indicator solution is used. At the end-point – when


neutralization just occurs – the indicator changes color from yellow to peach-
pink.

Procedure:-

1. Preparing (50 ml) 0.1 M HCl Solution:38 % HCL shows density


1.19 g/mL and we can find M by next : -

sp.gr * % * 1000
M=
M.wt

Calculate the volume of HCl (conc.):- We must dilute it to preparing 0.1 M


HCl in 50 ml from next: (M* V) conc. = (M * V)
dilute

M * V ml = 0.1 * 50 ml
Transfer V ml by cylinder to clean and dry beaker containing 30 ml D.W,
transfer the solution to volumetric flask capacity 50 ml, and complete the
volume to the mark by D.W.

2. Preparing (50 ml) 0.1 M Na2CO3 Solution:-calculate amount from


sodium carbonate for prepare 0.1 M in 50 ml -
Wt.(gm)
M= * 1000
M.Wt. V(ml)

0.1 = Wt.(gm) * 1000


106 50

Wt. =0.53 gm

Weigh 0.53 gm. from Na2CO3 in clean and dry beaker and dilute in 30 ml
D.W, transfer solution to volumetric flask capacity 50 ml and complete the
volume to the mark by D.W.

3. Transfer known volume of 5 ml the sodium carbonate solution, with a


pipette, to a conical flask then add one or two drops of methyl orange to this
solution.
4. Add the acid unknown solution from the burette gradually with continuous
swirling of the solution in the conical flask and
near the end point, the acid is added drop by
drop. Continue the addition of the acid until the
color of the solution passes from yellow to faint
red.
5. Repeat the experiment three times and
tabulate your results then take the mean of the
three readings.
Calculations: Calculate the molarity of HCl:-

m mol HCl = m mol Na2CO3

(M * V) HCl = (M * V) Na2CO3 * 1
2

( M * V burette) = ( 0.1 * 5) * 12

Discussion:-

1. What the difference between primary and


secondary standard substances?

2. Calculate the volume of conc. HCl required for preparing 250 ml 0.1 M?
3. Calculate the weight of Na2CO3 required for preparing 100 ml 0.1 M?
4. Why is sodium carbonate primary solution?
5. Why standard solution should be colorless?
6. Why is HCl not primary solution?
7. What is the titration?
