ABSTRACT
Throughout the monographs in this book, the term “volumetric solution” is used to designate a solution prepared and

standardized as described in this section.
Two background references that the analyst may find helpful are ASTM E20008(2008) and the section on Volumetric
Solutions in United States Pharmacopeia (see the bibliographies on Analytical Chemistry [Part 6: List of Bibliographies;
Analytical Chemistry], and on Physical Properties [Part 6: List of Bibliographies; Physical Properties]). Various textbooks
on chemical analysis also deal with volumetric solutions and volumetric analysis on both a theoretical and a practical
basis.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The concentrations of volumetric solutions usually are expressed as N, normality (number of gram-equivalent weights in each
liter of solution), although concentration sometimes is expressed as M, molarity (number of gram-molecular weights in each
liter of solution).
The accuracy of many analytical procedures is dependent on the manner in which such solutions are prepared, standardized,
and stored. The directions that follow describe the preparation of these solutions and their standardization against primary
standards or against already-standardized solutions. Alternatively, in cases where suitable primary standard chemicals are
available, volumetric solutions may be prepared by dissolving accurately weighed portions of these substances to make an
accurately known volume of solution. All volumetric solutions, of course, must be thoroughly mixed as part of their
preparation. Stronger or weaker solutions than those described are prepared and standardized in the same general manner,
using proportional amounts of reagents and standards. Lower strengths frequently may be prepared by accurately diluting a
stronger solution. However, when necessary because of the accuracy requirements of the analysis being performed, volumetric
solutions prepared in this manner should be standardized before use against a primary standard or by comparison with an
appropriate volumetric solution of known strength.
Certain reagents, such as arsenic trioxide, reductometric standard, are designated as standards in this book. Certified
standards of a number of chemical compounds are available as standard reference materials (SRMs) from NIST.
It is desirable to standardize a solution in such a way that the end point is observed at the same pH value (or
oxidation–reduction potential) anticipated during subsequent use.
For example, a sodium hydroxide solution found to be 0.1000 N when standardized against potassium hydrogen phthalate to
phenolphthalein (pH 8.5) may behave like 0.1002 N when used for titrating a strong acid to methyl red (pH 5). Only a small part
of this difference is due to the NaOH required to bring pure water from pH 5 to 8.5. In this case, the error can be avoided by
titrating the strong acid to phenolphthalein (pH 8.5), the same indicator that was used in standardizing the sodium hydroxide.

ACS Reagent Chemicals Preparation
Storage
Glass containers are suitable for the storage of most volumetric solutions. However, polyolefin containers are recommended
for alkaline solutions. Volumetric solutions are stable for varying lengths of time, depending on their chemical nature and
their concentration. Dilute solutions are likely to be less stable than those that are 0.1 N or stronger. If there is any doubt
about the reliability of a solution, it should be restandardized at the time of use. Volumetric solutions should be stored
appropriately to avoid environmental interaction that may adversely affect the stability of the assigned normality or
molarity. Opaque containers and carbon dioxide or oxygen traps may be appropriate under certain conditions.
Temperature Considerations
If possible, volumetric solutions should be prepared, standardized, and used at 25 °C. If a titration is carried out at a
temperature different from that at which the solution was standardized, a temperature correction may be needed,
depending on the accuracy requirement of the analysis being performed. If the temperature of use is higher than the
temperature of standardization, the correction is to be subtracted from the standardization value; if the temperature of
use is lower than the temperature of standardization, the correction is to be added. For guidance with respect to
temperature corrections, consider that a 5 °C temperature change will alter the normalities of solutions approximately as
follows: For aqueous solutions 0.1 N or less, by 1 part in 1000; 0.5 N, by 1.2 parts in 1000; and 1 N, by 1.4 parts in 1000. For
nonaqueous solutions, based on the expansion coefficients of the solvents, by 5.4 parts in 1000 for glacial acetic acid; 5.5
parts in 1000 for dioxane; and 6.2 parts in 1000 for methanol.
Errors caused by temperature differences, as well as by improper drainage of burettes or pipettes, can be avoided if
measurements are made on a weight basis. With a sensitive direct-reading balance and the use of squeeze bottles,
titrations by weight have become very practical and precise.
Correction Factors
It is not necessary that volumetric solutions have the identical normalities (or molarities) indicated in this section or as
specified in many of the standardization and assay calculations in this book. It is necessary, however, that the exact value be
known because if it is different from the nominal value specified, a correction factor will have to be applied. Thus, if a
calculation is based on an exactly 0.1 N volumetric solution and the solution actually used is 0.1008 N, its volume must be
multiplied by a factor of 1.008 to obtain the corrected volume of 0.1 N solution to use in the calculation. Similarly, if the
actual normality is 0.0984 N, the factor is 0.984.
Replication
Because the results obtained by titrations depend on the reliability of the volumetric solutions used, it is imperative that
the latter be standardized at least in triplicate with particular care and preferably by experienced analysts. Triplicate
standardizations for solutions from 0.1 N to 1 N should agree at least to within 2 parts in 1000. Triplicates for 0.05 N
solutions may differ by as much as 10 parts in 1000. If deviations are greater than indicated, the determinations should be
repeated until the criteria are met.
