Basic Questions for everyyone
Q1. What is the principle of volumetric analysis?
Answer. The concentration of a solution is determined in volumetric analysis by allowing a
known volume of it to quantitatively react with another solution of known concentration.
Q2. What is titration?
Answer. Titration is the process of adding one solution from the burette to another in the titration flask in order to complete the chemical reaction.
Q3. What is an indicator?
Answer. A chemical substance that changes colour at the endpoint is known as an indicator.
Q4. What is the endpoint?
Answer. The endpoint of the titration is the point during titration when the reaction is nearly complete.
Q5. Why are the burette and the pipette rinsed with the solution with which these are filled?
Answer. If you rinse the burette with the solution to be used, any tiny amounts of liquid remaining are the same as the solution used to fill the burette, and they will not affect the solution’s concentration in any way.
Q6. Which indicator is used in the titration of oxalic acid vs sodium hydroxide? Can the titration be performed by using some other indicator?
Answer. In the titration of oxalic acid and sodium hydroxide, phenolphthalein is used as an indicator because it changes colour in the titration pH range (8.3 – 10).
Any indicator with a pH range of 3.5 to 10 will detect the equivalence point. As a result, either phenolphthalein or methyl orange could be used as an indicator.
Q7. Why should one read the lower meniscus in the case of colourless and transparent solutions and the upper meniscus for solutions of dark colour?
Answer. When measuring the volume of colourless or transparent liquids, the lower meniscus must be read, but the upper meniscus must be read when measuring the volume of coloured liquids because the phase boundary in the colourless liquid is clearly visible and easy to read.
Q8. Which indicator is used in this titration?
Answer. In this titration phenolphthalein (HPh) is used as an indicator.
Q9. What do you mean by a 1.0 M solution?
Answer. A 1.0 M solution contains one mole of solute per litre of solution.
Q10. Why should the last drop of the solution not be blown out of a pipette?
Answer. This is due to the fact that the drops remaining in the jet end exceed the volume measured by the pipette.
Q11. Explain the term basicity of acid and acidity of a base?
Answer. The basicity of an acid is defined as the number of hydrogen ions produced by one molecule of the acid upon complete dissociation, whereas the acidity of a base is defined as the number of hydroxyl ions produced by one molecule of the base upon complete dissociation.
Q13. What is meant by the term, ‘concordant readings’?
Answer. Concordant readings are volumetric analysis readings that differ by less than 0.05 mL.
Q14. Can one take oxalic acid solution in the burette and sodium hydroxide solution in the titration flask? Point out the limitations of doing so if any.
Answer. No, because when a sodium hydroxide solution is added to the titration flask, the endpoint colour changes from pink to colourless. The precision in noting this change may be reduced as the compound changes from colourless to pink.
Q15. How can the molarity of the solution be calculated?
Answer. The molarity of the solution can be calculated by using the formula-
a1 M1 V1 = a2 M2 V2
where a1, M1, V1 are respectively basicity, molarity and volume of acid used and a2, M2 and V2 are acidity, molarity and volume respectively of base used in the titration.
Q16. What is a standard solution?
Answer. Any solution whose strength is known is called a standard solution.
Q17. What is a molar solution?
Answer. A molar solution is one that contains 1 mole of solute in one litre of solution.
Q18. What is acidimetry?
Answer. The method used to determine the strength of acid by titrating it against a standard alkali solution using a suitable indicator is known as acidimetry.
Q19. What type of reaction is an acid-alkali titration?
