Experiment No: 01
Name of the experiment:
Determination of the concentration of a solution of NaOH by titration with a
primary standard matter.
Introduction:
Determination of the concentration of one solution by addition of a stoichiometric
amount of a second solution from burette is a volumetric analysis. By using the
two known volume and one concentration we can determine the another
concentration.
In this filtration, we will use oxalic acid as primary standard and NaOH as
secondary standard. An indictor will be used in this acid-base titration which is a
dye and charges colour over a specific pH range and indicate the ending point.
In this volumetric analysis, firstly we will take an accurate amount of pure
substance and dissolve it in a solvent to produce a solution of accurately known
volume and concentration. In this volumetric analysis we have to calculate the
analysis more precisely and accurately to make it more useful.
Principle:
In this experiment concentration of NaOH solution is determined by a standard
oxalic acid solution.The oxalic acid and NaOH react in a 1:2 ratio.The amount of
NaOH consumed is accurately known.The volume and concentration of NaOH is
also known.By using this information we have to determine the concentration of
NaOH.

Name of the Experiment:
Determination of the strength of Na2S2O3 by “Iodometric reaction”.
Principal:
Iodometric reaction is an oxidation and reduction reaction. In this reaction we will
use standard K2Cr2O7 solution to determine strength of Na2S2O2. Titration
involving with iodine or iodead are respectively known as iodimetric and
iodimetric titration because I2 is got from KI. The reaction of this experiment is
6KI+ K2Cr2O7 +14HCl=2CrCl3+8KCl+3I2+7H2O
(6I − +14H+ + CrO72- + 6e- =2Cr3++3I2 +7H2O)
2 Na2S2O3+ I2 = Na2S4O6+2NaI
(S2O32- + e- = S2O62- + I-)
In the second step of the reaction a specific indicator is used that is ‘starch’ which
has a significant effect on iodine.
Starch + I2 =Starch – Iodine (blue colour)
Starch- iodine +6 S2O32- =Starch + 6I- + 3S4O62-
If to a solution containing a little iodine ,some starch solution is added and
Na2S2O3 is run in from the burette ,the blue colour of the starch iodine complex
will disappear from the solution as soon all the iodine has been reduced to iodide
ion.

NaHCO3
HCl (concentrated)
Starch (indicator)
Procedure:
1. Firstly we have to take a dry, clean 250 ml conical flask and to which add 25 ml
of water followed by add 0.5g of NaHCO3 and shake the solution to dissolve it.
2. Then we have to add 0.5g and continue to shake.
3. At this point add 5 ml of 1M HCl followed by 10ml of 0.1N K 2Cr2O7 to the
conical flask. Then keep the conical flask in dark inside the locker.
4. Add another 50ml of water to the conical flask. Then add few drops of Na2S2O3
to the conical flask.
5. When most of the I2 liberated the solution turns into a yellowish green colour.
Then add few drops of starch into the flask and the colour will change to deep blue
colour.
6. Addition of Na2S2O3 solution continued drop wise until one drop change the
colour from blue to light green. The end point is sharp and observed in a good light
against a white back ground
Now we have to calculate the strength of Na2S2O3 using V1S1=V2S2
Calculation:
6KI+K2Cr2O7+14HCl=2Cr Cl3+8KCL+3I2+7H2O
2 Na2S2O3+I2=Na2S4O6+2NaI
According to the equation-
14 mole HCl ≡ 3 mole I2 ≡ 6 mole Na2S2O3
14 mole HCl ≡ 6 mole Na2S2O3
Or, 7 mole HCl ≡ 3 mole Na2S2O3
∴ 3 × 5 × 1 = 7 × 1.4 × 𝑆(Na2S2O3)
∴ 𝑆(Na2S2O3) = 1.53 M
Result:
The strength of Na2S2O3 is 1.53 M.

Name of the experiment:
Determination of the change of enthalpy of a chemical reaction by using
calorimeter.
Introduction:
There are mainly two kinds of chemical reactions in thermochemistry. These are
exothermic and endothermic reaction. In exothermic reaction, the energy or heat
increases so that the temperatures increase and in endothermic reaction, the energy
or heat is absorbed so that the temperatures decrease.
Generally, we use calorimetric process to determine the change of enthalpy which
is defined by ∆𝐻 which is positive for endothermic reaction and negative for
exothermic reaction and measured in Kilo Joule (KJ) unit.
In calorimetric process, a calorimeter is used to measure the change of enthalpy. A
calorimeter is any well insulated apparatus that can hold the reactants and products,
so the amount of heat, that is absorbed or released by a reaction, can be measured.
The heat is necessary to raise the temperature of the calorimeter and its content can
be calculated from the following equation:
Q= m× Csol × ∆T + Ccal × ∆T
Here, Csol= heat capacity of the solution
m= mass of solution
Ccal= calorimeter heat capacity
∆𝑇= change of temperature
Since the reaction is carried out at constant pressure (because the calorimeter is
open to air), by definition the heat associated with the reaction is equal to the ∆𝐻.
Thus-
∆𝑯 = −(𝒎 × 𝑪𝒔𝒐𝒍 × ∆𝑻 + 𝑪𝒄𝒂𝒍 × ∆𝑻)
Hess’ law states that enthalpy change for chemical reactions equals the sum of the
enthalpy changes for any series of reactions which can be combined to give the
reaction of interest.
NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) = NaCl(aq) + H2O(aq) (A)
NaOH(s) + HCl(aq) = NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) (B)
NaOH(s) NaOH(aq) (C)
Methods:
7. Now we have to graph the result on the graph paper and extrapolate the line to
the time of mixing 6 min and determine the change in temperature as shown on the
graph.

8. Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction by completing out the
calculations.
Concentration of HCl(aq) = 1M
Concentration of NaOH(aq) = 1M
NaOH(aq) = 32ºC
HCl(aq) = 32ºC
Mixture = 37ºC

[HCl]/molL-1 =1M
[NaOH]/molL-1 =1M
From the calculation, it has found that final solution is basic as excess solution is
NaOH(aq).
1. Using the total volume of solution and its density to calculate the
2. By using the mass of the final solution, ΔT and the heat capacity of the solution
to calculate the heat absorbed by the solution:
Cp = 4 Jg-1K-1
= 112.2 × 4 × 5

= 2244 J
3. By using calorimeter constant and ΔT, we will calculate the heat absorbed by the
calorimeter:
= −47.88 𝐾𝐽
1. First we have to take 1.9-2.1 g of solid NaOH pellets into a dry sample tube and
cap immediately and record the masses of NaOH.
3. Measure and record to 1 decimal place of temperature of HCl solution at 0.5 min
intervals for a total of 6 measurements.
4. At time = 3.5 mins, we will mix the NaOH pellets to the HCl solution in the
calorimeter.
6. Now, we will use red & blue litmus to ensure if the solution is acidic or basic.
7. Extrapolate the line to the time of mixing and determine the change in
temperature.
8. Finally, we will calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction by completing out
the calculation.

1. Firstly we have to weight 1.9-2.1 g of solid NaOH and then dissolve it into 100
ml of water.
2. Now we have to measure and record 1 decimal place of the temperature of the
water at 0.5 intervals for a total of 6 measurements.
3. At time = 3.5 mins, we will add the solid NaOH pellets to the water in the
calorimeter & stir it properly.

4. At time = 4 mins, we will start to measure and record the temperature until time
= 11 mins.
5. Then we will use red & blue litmus to determine if the solution is acidic or basic.
6. Finally we will rinse the temperature probe on the thermometer and dry it.

2. By using the mass of the final solution, ∆𝑇 and the heat capacity of the solution,
we can calculate the heat absorbed by the solution:
Mass of the final solution= 101.8 g
Cp= 3.9 jg-1K-1
Heat absorbed by the solution=m× Cp ×∆T
=101.8 × 3.9 × 4.7
=1865.99 J
3. Calorimeter constant= 3o JK-1
Heat absorbed by calorimeter= Cp × ∆𝑇
=30× 4.7
=141 J
4. Heat associated with reaction= - (heat absorbed by the calorimeter + absorbed
by the solution)
= - (1865.99 + 141) J
= - 2006.94 J
5. The enthalpy change equals to the heat associated with chemical reaction.

= - 40.14 KJ
According to Hess’ law:
∆𝐻B = ∆𝐻A + ∆𝐻C
Here, the value of ∆𝐻B = - 92.48KJ
So, the value of (∆𝐻A + ∆𝐻C) = (-47.88) + (-40.14) KJ
= - 88.02 KJ
So, the reaction approximately follows the Hess’ law.
