Titrations

Permanganate titration should be done in an acidic solution because permanganate ion (MnO4-) is most stable in acidic conditions. In acidic solution, permanganate ion is reduced to manganese(II) ions (Mn2+) during the titration. This reaction helps in accurately determining the concentration of the substance being titrated.

Some types of conductometric titrations include acid-base titrations, redox titrations, and precipitation titrations. Conductometric titration involves measuring the change in electrical conductivity as reactants are titrated against each other until an equivalence point is reached.

A titration in which the mass of the titrant is measured instead of the volume. Then you can express moles of reagent/ kg of titrant as it's concentration. How convenient. They are more accurate and precise because on most analytical scales you can measure out four or more decimal places. Where as in pipettes and burets you can only measure two.

AC current is used in conductometric titration because it eliminates problems related to polarization and electrode fouling that can occur with DC current. AC current helps to ensure a stable and reliable measurement of the conductivity changes during the titration process, leading to more accurate and precise results.

i.e one oxidized and other reduced.

In simple words " the principle involved in redox titration is accepting the electrons or donating the electrons simultaneously donating hydrogens or accepting the hydrogens."

Heating is performed in redox titrations to increase the rate of reaction between the analyte and the titrant, thus speeding up the titration process. It can help to break down complex molecules, improve solubility of reactants, or enhance the efficiency of the redox reaction.

The unknown quantity that can be calculated after performing a titration is the concentration of the substance being titrated. This is typically done by using the volume of titrant required to reach an endpoint and applying stoichiometry to determine the concentration of the unknown substance.

During titration, a standard base is slowly added to an acid solution until the equivalence point is reached. At this point, the moles of acid and base are stoichiometrically equivalent. An indicator is often used to signal when this point is reached, allowing for the determination of the acid concentration.

In a titration the pipette is used to transfer 25 cm3 (usually to ±0.05 cm3) of a solution into a conical flask. Another solution that reacts with the solution in the conical flask is carefully added from a burette until it has all exactly reacted. This is called the end point of the titration (or equivalence point of the reaction). There needs to be a way of knowing when the end point is reached. An indicator may be needed. Often a titration is repeated until successive titres are within 0.1 cm3.

Phenolphthalein is normally used for this reaction as it accurately displays the end point of the reaction, turning colorless as soon as it reaches the end point of the reaction. If carrying out this reaction, be careful, as the change is usually quite sudden. The color exhibited should be pink (or "fuchsia") at the beginning of the reaction. As it progresses, it should become lighter in color, until it becomes colorless suddenly.

Because sulphuric acid is non volatile and its sulphate ion is not interfering during the titration process while HCl is a volatile substance and its chloride ion interfere in the reaction as a reducing agent.

Weighing by difference involves weighing the sample before and after the titration to calculate the amount of substance used. This method is used to accurately determine the amount of substance added or reacted in the titration process, accounting for any losses or impurities that may have affected the final result.

The independent variable in a titration is the volume of titrant added to the analyte solution. It is controlled by the person conducting the experiment and is typically plotted on the x-axis of a titration curve.

Acidimetry titration is a chemical analysis technique used to determine the concentration of an acid in a solution. It involves adding a base of known concentration to the acid solution until the equivalence point is reached, indicated by a change in color or pH. By measuring the volume of the base required to reach the equivalence point, the concentration of the acid can be calculated.

Potassium permanganate undergoes reduction in acidic medium which generates a color change that can be easily observed, making it suitable for use as an oxidizing agent in titrations. Additionally, the acidic medium prevents the premature reaction of permanganate ions with reducing agents present in the solution before the titration is conducted.

In potentiometric titration, the change in the concentration of H+ ions are monitored based on the emf measurement with respect to Saturated calomel electrode ( a reference electrode having a standard reduction potential of 0.2422 V). H+ ions concentration in terms of pH change is measured using primarily by quinhydrone electrode.

Based on hydrogen electrode also it can be measured.

An electrochemical cell consists of H+ ions (acid to be titrated) in contact with hydrogen gas (1 atm) or quinhydrone/ quinone should be formed and the emf (potential difference) of the cell is measured with reference to saturated calomel electrode (SCE).

Then based on Nernst equation value of standard electrode potential of hydrogen ion is,

EH = Eo + 0.0591 log [H+]

or EH = - 0.0591 pH

since Eo = 0 V and -log [H+] = pH

So EMF of the cell is Ecell = ESCE - EH

Ecell = 0.2422 - EH

The Ecell value is plotted ( Y axis) against volume of base added (X axis).

The volume corresponds to drastic Ecell change gives equivalence point of the titration. At equivalence point all the free H+ ions are replaced as H2O and this is reflected and can be inferred in the Ecell values.

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to the titration of vitamin C to acidify the solution and provide a suitable acidic medium for the reaction between vitamin C and iodine to occur. The acid helps in the oxidation of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) by iodine, which is essential for determining the vitamin C content accurately through titration.

Upon swallowing such a solution, you would collapse almost immediately and lose consciousness within 10-20 seconds. Death would follow in a matter of minutes.

With such a massive dose taken, any medical assistance, no matter how aggressive, would prove futile.

A gram mixed in with about 4 to 8 oz water would render you unconscious within 15-45 sec (depending on your body) and without medical attention you would be dead within 30-45 min.

If you are looking at a iodide to iodine redox titration, the solution would turn yellow instead of blue/black. The blue/black color of the iodine-starch complex is very intense and so the end-point is sharper. Without the starch, the endpoint, when the first yellow from the formation of iodine I2, appears, is less sharp and is harder to see.

In indirect titration, a substance that reacts with the analyte is added first, and then the excess of this substance is titrated with another reagent to determine the amount used. This method is useful when the analyte does not directly react with the titrant.

The KB of ammonia (NH3) can be calculated from the half-titration point by using the expression for the equilibrium constant of the reaction: KB = [NH4+][OH-]/[NH3]. At the half-titration point, half of the ammonia has been converted to ammonium (NH4+). By knowing the initial concentration of ammonia and the volume of titrant added to reach the half-titration point, you can calculate the concentration of NH4+ and OH- to determine KB.

Phenolphthalein is commonly used as an indicator in the titration of hydrochloric acid (HCl) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Phenolphthalein changes color from colorless to pink at the endpoint of the titration when all the acid has been neutralized by the base.

Titration is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the unknown cocncentration of a known reactant. The word "titration" comes from the Latin word titulus, meaning inscription or title. The French word titre, also from this origin, means rank. Titration, by definition, is the determination of rank or concentration of a solution with respect to water with a pH of 7 (which is the pH of pure H2O under standard conditions).
