Could you prepare oxalic acid by adding hcl to a solution og sodium oxalate?

Yes, oxalic acid can be prepared by adding hydrochloric acid (HCl) to a solution of sodium oxalate. The reaction that occurs is double displacement reaction where sodium chloride and oxalic acid are formed. Oxalic acid can be obtained by precipitating it out of the solution by adjusting the pH.


Which indicator is used in titration of oxalic acid with HCl?

Both HCl and oxalic acid are acids. Therefore, since there is no alkali present, these compounds do not undergo neutralization. So there is no suitable indicators for the addition of these two reagents.


Is it necessary to know the exact concentration of oxalic acid to determine the concentration of the base?

No, it is not necessary to know the exact concentration of oxalic acid if you are titrating it with a base. You can determine the concentration of the base by measuring the volume of the base solution required to neutralize the acid solution.


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

Can oxalic acid be used for standardization of strong base?

Yes, in fact it is the only acknowledged acid (DIN, ASAC, NEN) to be used with standardisation in analytical titration chemistry (volumetrics > > titrimetrics > acidimetry). By the way, it is also used in oxidimetric standardisation.


Is oxalic acid a strong acid?

No, oxalic acid is considered a weak acid. It dissociates partially in water to release hydrogen ions.
