Estimation of Hydrochloric Acid
Aim : To estimate the amount of Hydrochloric Acid present in 250ml of given
solution by using 0.1M NaOH solution.
Apparatus and Chemicals required :
Burette, Burette stand, Pipette, Conical flask, Methyl orange Indicator,
Glazed tile, given HCl solution, 0.1M NaOH solution
Principle : HCl reacts with NaOH by the following equation.
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H 2O
1mole 1mole
Here, 1 mole HCl reacts with 1 mole NaOH
Procedure : The solution taken in burette is given HCl solution. 20ml of given
0.1M NaOH solution is transferred into a conical flask with the help of a pipette.
solution taken in burette. At the end point colour of the solution changes from
yellow to pale pink colour. Then, the volume of HCl solution run down from
burette is noted. The titrations are repeated till consecutive readings are obtained

V1 = Volume of HCl solution = ____________________ ml
M 1 = Molarity of HCl solution =?
n1 = No.of moles of HCl in the equation = 1 mole
V2 = Volume of NaOH solution = 20 ml
M 2 = Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.1M
n2 = No.of moles of NaOH in the equation = 1 mole
