Exp. 4 Standard Base solution and Stoichiometric

Cards (13)

  • Standard substance: The substance that we know concentration and quantity
  • Standard solution: Prepared solution
  • Standard substance
    1)Primary standard: High stability, low volatility, not absorb moisture, minimal change upon heat/light/oxygen
    ex: Na2CO3, KHC8H4O4
  • Standard substance
    2) Secondary standard: Not stable, volatile, absorb moisture, prove to oxidation, sensitive to light and heat
    ex: HCl, NaOH, H2SO4, HNO3
  • Standardization: titrate standard solution against primary standard substances to determine their exact concentration beforehand
  • NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) absorb water from air and reacts with CO2 (acidic)
  • Standard NaOH may not have actual weight and inaccurate concentration.
  • To make NaOH concentration accurate we should use acid primary standard substance
    1. Potassium Hydrogen phthalate KHC8H4O4 (KHP)
    2. Potassium Hydrogen Iodate (KHIO3)
  • KHP: High purity, stable, mild acidic properties, react quickly with NaOH
  • Structure of KHP
  • Phenolphthalein: colorless -> pink (base)
    Methyl orange: Yellow -> red (acid)
  • Decomposition of sodium bicarbonate
