1. Use the pipette to measure 25cm' of sodium hydroxide into the conical flask
2. Place the conical flask on a white tile
3. Fill the burette with sulphuric acid using a funnel
4. Record the initial reading of acid in the burette
5. Add a 5 drops of indicator in this case phenolphthalein to the conical flask
6. Slowly open the burette tap while swirling the conical flask
7. Add acid drop-by-drop near the endpoint
8. Close the burette when a colour change occurs in phenolphthalein
9. Record the final reading of acid in the burette and calculate the titre
10. Repeat until you have concordant results
11. Present results in a table and calculate the mean titre discarding any anomalies
12. Calculate the number of moles of sodium hydroxide used in the titration
13. Divide the moles of sodium hydroxide by 2 to find the moles of sulphuric acid
14. Use the formula [concentration= moles/volume (mean titre volume)] to work out the concentration of sulphuric acid
