3.) Place 5mL of vinegar in a 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask. Dilute the vinegar with 25 mL of water and add two drops of phenolphthalein.
4.) Fill the buret with NaOH. Record the initial volume of the buret in your data table.
5.) Titrate the vinegar sample until the first faint pink color does not disappear.
6.) Record the final volume of the buret in your data table.
7.) Repeat steps 3 through 6 until you have three trials that agree within five percent.
Equipment:
Ring stand, goggles, buret, 125mL Erlenmeyer flask, 150mL beaker, excess vinegar and NaOH.

The pH indicator, phenolphthalein, turned a light shade of pink when it was in a solution with a pH of 7. Neutralization reactions occur when an acid is mixed with a base. The product of this reaction is a salt and water. These reactions are double displacement reactions, because the cation of the base mixes with the anion from the acid, forming a base, and the hydrogen from the acid mixes with the anion from the base, forming water. In this reaction, the sodium ion from the sodium hydroxide attracts to the acetate ion from the acetic acid, and the extra hydride ion bonds with the negative hydroxide ion to form water. The water produced by the reaction had a pH of seven, and so when the whole solution was light pink, we knew the reaction had fully

    A titration is a technique used to find the solution of known concentration in the concentration of another unknown solution. Typically, the known solution is added from a known quantity of unknown solution until the reaction is complete. Titrations are also often used to determine the pH of a solution. This is important because without knowing how acid or basic a solution is people could hurt themselves and others but mixing chemicals together that are lethal. The objective of the is lab is to develop familiarity with the concepts and techniques of titration and to determine the concentration of an acidic acid solution. It was necessary to add Phenolphthalein because it acts as an indicator, that is a weak acid, so it is easier…

    In order to determine the concentration of an unknown acid and base, a method called acid-base titration is used. The end of the titration has been reached when the moles of acid equals the moles of base. This is called the equivalent point. However, end point os the actual point that is reached in neutralization reaction. End point is signalled by the change in color of the solution because of the presence of pH indicator. The common used indicator is phenolphthalein; it is colorless in acidic solution and pink in basic solution.…

    Titration is a method, which is meant to find the concentration of either an acid or a base by adding a measured amount of it to a known volume and concentration of an acid or base1. Titration starts with a beaker or Erlenmeyer flask containing a very precise volume of the known concentration solution and a small amount of indicator, which is put underneath a burette containing the solution with unknown concentration1. Small drops of the titrant are then added to the known solution and indicator until the indicator changes which means the endpoint has been reached. Single drops of the titrant can sometimes make a permanent or temporary change in the indicator2.…

    The equilibrium between acids and bases during a titration can be used to determine several characteristics of the acid or the base. Sodium hydroxide was standardized to 0.1035 M in three acid-base titrations of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP). This standardized NaOH solution was then used in a series of other titrations with acids in order to gain information about those acids. The first acid tested was hydrochloric acid. This titration showed that the equivalence point occurred at a pH of 7.0. The second acid tested was the polyprotic phosphoric acid. This titration resulted in two equivalence points, one at pH 5.01 and the second around pH 9.25. The pKa1 of this acid was 2.25 and pKa2 was 6.90, compared with the known values of 2.16 and 7.21, respectively. Three titrations with the unknown acid “O” showed that the molecular weight of the acid was 76.09 g/mol. This is approximately one-half the known molecular…

    Acid Base Titrations

    The acid-base titration curves help to find the pKa, Ka, and pH at equivalent point. At the beginning pH for HCl is 1.90 which is lower than the 3.28 for acetic acid; thus, strong acid (HCl) means lower pH and weak acid (acetic acid) means higher pH. Then at the equivalent point for the titration HCl-NaOH the pH is 7, which mans that is neutral, in other words there are enough NaOH mmol to neutralize the HCl mmol present; also, the solution contains only water and NaCl the salt derived from the titration made. On the other hand, at the equivalent point for the titration acetic acid-NaOH the pH is 8.67; consequently is more basic. This is something that it was expected because for a weak monoprotic acid (acetic acid)-strong base (NaOH) titration the pH at equivalence point is always grater than 7 because the anion of the weak acid is a base. Next beyond the equivalent point, the curves for the acetic acid- NaOH and HCl-NaOH titrations are identical because the pH in both cases is determined by the concentration of OH from the excess NaOH., getting all this data the pKa is determined by estimating the pH at the volume point which is 16 divided by two which is 8 (the halfway to the equivalent point), so when the volume is 8, pKa is 4.76, taking the antilog of 4.76 the answer gives a value of 1.74 * 10 ^-5 that is very accurate to the theoretical one. The indicator plays an important role for determining the equivalence point based on the color change. Phenolphthalein is an excellent indicator for the acetic acid-NaOH titration because the pH at equivalent point (8.67) falls within the pH range (8.2-9.8) in which phenolphthalein changes…
