SYNOPSIS The purpose of this experiment is to use the back titration method to determine the percentage of calcium carbonate in toothpaste. Instead of using standard titration methods where an acid is titrated directly using a standard solution of a base‚ back titration is used because

Synopsis The objective of this experiment is to determine the percentage by mass of calcium carbonate‚CaCO3 in toothpaste using back titration technique. A known weight portion of toothpaste is obtained to react with known volume and concentration of standard acid solution. After completing the reaction‚ the resulting solution containing excess acid is back titrated with known volume and concentration of standard base solution. Determination of excess acid after reaction allow us to calculate the

The excess sulfuric acid is determined by titration with a 0.500 M sodium hydroxide solution. 300.00 mL of sodium hydroxide is required to neutralise the acid. What was the % purity of iron in steel wool? Question 2 A 3.145 g sample of a certain lead ore containing lead(II) carbonate‚ PbCO3‚ was heated gently with 25.00 mL of nitric acid of concentration

Chemistry 12 12/Oct/2011 Titration- Analysis of Aspirin Tablets Objective: Determine the percentage of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) present in two different commercial tablets by titrating the solution with a base. Also determine whether the aspirin is a strong or weak acid according to the Bronsted- Lowry and Lewis theories and deduce the formula of the acid- base reaction. Independent Variable: The amount of base (NaOH) in moles that are needed to neutralize the solution. Dependent Variable:

Discussion The acid neutralising capacity (ANC) of 3 brands of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) tablets was determined by reacting the tablets in excess standardized hydrochloric acid (HCl) and then back-titrating with a standardized sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution. Back titration was required for two reasons. Firstly‚ CaCO3 tablets are poorly water-soluble but dissolve rapidly in acid. Secondly‚ CaCO3 is a weak base so it is difficult to determine the end point of the reaction if titrated directly. Assuming

Reshmi Nair Title: Determination of Aspirin through back titration. Aim: To determine the concentration of Aspirin in a tablet using NaOH and Hcl. Research Question: What is the concentration of Aspirin in a normal tablet? Background: Aspirin is the general name for acetylsalicylic acid (ASA); it is also the trademark of the drug produced by Bayer in Germany. In eighty countries‚ aspirin is a registered trademark‚ but in other places the term aspirin refers to ASA by itself or as an ingredient

INTRODUCTION: Penicillin is the basis for most of the antibiotics in the world just as aspirin is the basis for many drugs. Therefore‚ if there had been only two drugs to invent‚ it would be down to penicillin and aspirin. Hippocrates‚ the father of modern medicine lived sometime between 460 B.C and 377 B.C. Hippocrates has left historical records of pain relief treatments‚ including the use of a powder made from the bark and leaves of the willow tree to help heal headaches‚ pains and fevers.

effects for some people‚ yet it is safe enough to be sold without a prescription. Because it is easy to prepare‚ aspirin is one of the most inexpensive drugs available. It is produced in vast amounts. In fact‚ industry makes 43‚000‚000 pounds of the drug every year. This microscale experiment will permit you to make an amount of aspirin equivalent to about 1/2 of that found in an aspirin tablet. Purpose: To synthesize acetylsalicylic acid on a microscale basis.
