Distilled water is the closest one can get with conventional methods to pure water, which would be ideal to create solutions. Tap water is typically not used because it contains minerals and other foreign materials that can affect the solution itself, and alter results.

1.5N NAOH solution preparation?

1. Weigh 60 g NaOH. 2. Put this NaOH in a 1 L volumetric flask. 3. Add slowly 200 mL distilled water and stir. 4. Put the flask in a thermostat at 20 0C and maintain for 1 hour. 5. Add distilled water up to the mark. Stir vigorously. 6. Standardize the solution by titration with oxalic acid, potassium hydrogen phtalate, etc. 7. Transfer the solution in a bottle and apply a label (date, name of the operator, name of the solution, normality).

How do you prepare 100ml 0.1M of oxalic acid solution?

Firstly you find how much solid oxalic acid you will need, via n = c/v, where: n= number of molesc = concentrationv = volume, in this casen=(.1/.25)=.4 molesNow, from this we can find how many grams of solid oxalic acid we will need, usingn=m/M, wheren= number of molesm = massM = molecular mass, in this casem = nM (through manipulation of the equation)= (.4)(90.03)= 36.012 gNow, you would need to take this pure oxalic acid and add it to a 250mL volumetric flask and fill to you reach the marker.


Hopkins cole reagent?

3.0 g Mg powder or thin ribbon cut in small pieces, cover with distilled water and cool in an ice bath. Slowly add with stirring 75 mL cold, saturated oxalic acid solution (about 8 g oxalic acid in 75 mL water). Filter, and 7.5 mL glacial acetic acid to the filtrate. Top up to 150 mL with distilled water.

How do you prepare standard solution of oxalic acid?

Oxalic acid (M.W.= 90 g/mol) is available in the lab as oxalic acid dihydrate crystals (M.W. = 126 g/mol). A standard solution of Oxalic acid or ethandioic acid can be used as a standard solution to standardise other alkali solutions because oxalic acid crystals are non-hygroscopic in nature. To prepare a 1 liter 1N solution of oxalic acid, follow these steps: 1. Carefully weigh 0.5 mol or 63 g of oxalic acid dihydrate crystals. This is because th n-factor of oxalic acid is 2 and so 1 mole of oxalic acid = 2 equivalents of oxalic acid. 2. Wash the 1 litre volumetric flask first with tap water (thrice), then with chromic acid solution (once but thoroughly) and finally with distilled water so as to remove any contaminants from the glassware. 3. Pour the crystals in the volumetric flask and add some distilled water. Shake the mix to dissolve the crystals in the solvent. 4. Make-up the volume to 1-litre by adding more distilled water.

Could you prepare oxalic acid by adding HCl to a solution of sodium oxalate cooling it to room temp and filtering the resulting mixture?

No we cannot prepare Oxalic acid by the given method. Solubility of Sodium Oxalate is less in comparison to solubility of Oxalic acid. So whatever oxalic acid is formed will remain in the solution and cannot be precipitated out in the form of solid


What is the normality of 1m oxalic acid?

The normality of 1M oxalic acid is 1N. This means that every mole of oxalic acid in 1 liter of solution has the capacity to donate or accept 1 equivalent of acid-base species.


How many milliliters of a 0.270 M solution are needed to react completely with 3.245 g of oxalic acid?

The answer depends on which compound is in the 0.270M solution to react with oxalic acid, and sometimes also at what temperature and pH value this reaction is taking place.


Why can MnO2 stains on glassware be easily removed by rinsing with an oxalic acid solution?

MnO2 gets reduced by the reducing agent (in this case oxalic acid). But i do think the solution needs to be acidified to provide a anion ion for the Mn2+ ions that will be produced.


Will the normality of an H2C2O4 solution increase or decrease if the solution is stored in a clear bottle in a lighted room?

Oxalic acid is a stable compound.
