Part 1
Acid – base titration
Standard solution
Standard solution may be generally defined as “a solution of exactly
known concentration”
In titrimetric analysis the standard solution is often the titrating agent.
It is more usual to describe such standard solutions either as empirical;
molar or normal.
1.
Molar standard solutions:
A molar solution (M or M/1) is one, which contains the gram molecular
weight of the substance in one liter of solution.
The molar concentration or molarity of a solution is stated by a
number indicating how many moles or what fraction of a mole is
present per liter of solution.
2.
Normal standard solutions
A normal solution (N or N/1) is a solution, which contains one
equivalent of substance per liter of solution. Any convenient multiple
or fraction of the gram – equivalent weight may be used when a
normal is too weak or too strong for the purpose at hand.
5
3.
Empirical standard solutions
These solution are prepared in such a concentration that 1 ml of it
react with some definite, convenient quantity of another substance,
as for example with 5 gm. This often desirable when the solution is to
be used in the determination of only one substance, but different
empirical solutions bear no relation to each other
In the determination of zinc a standard solution of potassium
ferrocyanide is prepared so that 1 ml of which reacts with 5 gm of zinc
according to the following equations
3 Zn2+ + 2 K4 (Fe(CN)6) = K2Zn3[Fe(CN)6] + 6 K+
 2 K4(Fe(CN)6). 3 H2O = 3 Zn2+
i.e. 2 x 422.3 gm K4(Fe(CN)6). 3 H2O / 1 = 3 x 65.38 mg Zn/ml
And if 21.2 gm K4(Fe(CN)6). 3 H2O are dissolved in a liter of its solution,
1 ml = 5 mg Zn
It is evident that this relation does not hold well if the standard
ferrocyanide solution is used for the determination of substances other
than zinc.
Equivalent weight of acids and bases:
The equivalent weight is determined by “the number of replaceable
hydrogen atoms in the acid molecule”. Thus to make a normal
solution of the mono-basic hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic,
nitric or acetic acids, it is necessary to have a molecular weight in
grams (1mole) of the acid dissolved in a liter of solution. To make one
liter of normal solution of the diabasic sulphuric acid, only half mole of
the acid is necessary. Phosphoric acid has three equivalent weights
6
depending on the number of its hydrogen, which enter into the
reaction
H3PO4 + OH– = H2O + H2PO4–
equivalent weight =
H3PO4
1
H3PO4 + 2 OH– = 2H2O + HPO4–2 equivalent weight =
H3PO4
2
H3PO4 + 3 OH– = 3 H2O + PO4–3 equivalent weight =
H3PO 4
3
The normal weight of a base is determined by the number of
replaceable hydroxide in the base molecule. Thus of potassium
hydroxide, KOH, sodium hydroxide, NaOH and ammonium hydroxide,
NH4OH, 1 mole per liter makes a normal solution. Of barium hydroxide
Ba(OH)2, calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 and strontium hydroxide,
Sr(OH)2, only half mole per liter is required.
Salts of weak acids and strong bases have a basic reaction. The
equivalent weight of such basic salts, for example sodium carbonate,
is determined in terms of “the weight which reacts with one hydrogen”
with methyl orange as indicator, one mole of sodium carbonate
reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid, that is 2 hydrogen; hence,
the equivalent weight is half mole of sodium carbonate. With
phenolphthalein as indicator, however, the end point is reached with
1 mole of hydrochloric acid that is one hydrogen; in this case the
equivalent weight of sodium carbonate is its molecular weight.
Preparation of standard solutions:
There are two general methods for the preparation of a standard
solution:
1. Direct method: This method consists of dissolving the equivalent
weight, or a definite fraction or multiple of a substance of known purity
in the solvent, usually water, and making uniform after dilution to the
proper final volume.
7
2. Indirect method: By this method a solution of approximately the
desired normality is first prepared, then standardized against a
standard of exactly known concentration or purity.
The following are some important substances, which may be
obtained rather easily in a condition of suitable purity for the direct
preparation of standard solution, and are called, therefore, primary
standards: benzoic acid, potassium acid phthalate, sodium
carbonate, potassium bormate, potassium iodate, potassium
dichromate, arsenious oxide, iodine, potassium chloride, sodium
chloride and silver nitrate.
Primary standard should have the following characteristics in order
to be ideally satisfactory:1. easy to obtain, purity and dry without change in composition
2. Capable of being tested for impurities by simple qualitative tests of
known sensitivity.
3. stable in contact with air of average humidity over a long periods
4. Having a high equivalent weight in order that weighing errors may
have a small relative effect.
5. Readily soluble under the conditions in which it is employed.
6. React with the other substances rapidly and stoichiometrically.
Preparation of standard acid:
Hydrochloric and sulphuric acids are widely employed in the
preparation of standard solutions of acids. Both of these are
commercially available as concentrated solution; conc. HCl is about
10 to 12 N, and conc. H2SO4 is about 36 N. By suitable dilution, solution
of any desired approximate strength may be readily prepared.
Hydrochloric acid is more convenient, since most chlorides are soluble
in water. Nitric acid is rarely employed, because it almost invariably
contains a little nitrous acid, which has a destructive action upon
many indicators.
8
Preparation of 0.1 N HCl and standardization:
Measure, by means of a graduated cylinder or a burette, 9 ml of pure
conc. HCl, pour the acid into a liter measuring flask containing about
500 ml distilled water. Dilute to the mark with distilled water and mix.
This will give a solution approximately 0.1 N solution.
If 1.0 N HCl is required, use 90 ml of the conc. HCl. Approximately 0.1
N H2SO4 is similarly prepared from 3 ml. of pure conc. H2SO4.
Standardization with anhydrous sodium carbonate:
The sodium carbonate required for this purpose must be free from
chloride, sulphate and from insoluble impurities. Analytical reagent
quality (A.R.) sodium carbonate of 99.9 % purity is obtainable
commercially. This contains a little moisture and must be dehydrated
by heating at 260 to 270 oC. For half an hour and allowed to cool in a
desiccator before use.
Alternatively, pure Na2CO3 may be prepared by heating pure
NaHCO3 to 260 to 270 oC for 1 to 1.5 hours. The temperature must not
be allowed to exceed 270oC, for about this temperature the Na2CO3
may lose CO2. As small quantity, 3 to 4 g of pure NaHCO3 is placed in
a porcelain crucible and pressed against the walls of crucible so as to
form uniformly thick layer. Insert the crucible in a sand bath, immerse
the bulb of a 300oC thermometer in the sand bath with a free flame,
and maintain the temperature at 260 to 270oC for 1 hour; stir the mass
and allow the crucible to cool in a desiccator.
Procedure:
Weight out accurately about 0.1 gm of the pure Na2CO3 into 25 ml.
Erlenmeyer flask, dissolve it in about 25 ml of water and add M.O.
indicator. Titrate with the acid in the usual manner. Repeat the
titration with two other portions of Na2CO3. From the weights of
Na2CO3 and the volumes of HCl solution employed the strength (and
9
the normality) of an acid may be computed for each titration. The
results should agree to about 0.2 %. The mean of the results is taken as
the strength of the solution.

Preparation of standard alkali
The hydroxides of sodium, potassium and barium are used for this
purpose, since they are strong bases and are readily soluble in water
sodium hydroxide is most commonly used because of its cheapness.
None of these hydroxides can be obtained pure, a certain amount of
water and alkali carbonates being always present. A standard
solution cannot, therefore, be prepared by directly dissolving a known
weight in a definite volume of water. It is therefore, necessary to
prepare a solution of approximately the proper concentration and
then to standardize this alkali against hydrochloric acid of known
normality, or against any of the primary standards previously
mentioned, as, for example potassium acid phthalate.
Preparation of carbonate free sodium hydroxide:
Dissolve 50 g of sodium hydroxide in 50 ml. of water in a conical flask.
Transfer the solution to a 75 ml- test tube, and insert a well – fitting
stopper covered with the foil. Allow standing until the undissolved
Na2CO3 has settled. The clear solution is practically free from
carbonate, and is about 15 N. To prepare an approximately 0.1 N
10
NaOH carefully with draw 6.5 ml through a graduated pipette into a
liter flask and dilute quickly to 1 liter with CO2 – free water.
Standardization of the approximately 0.1 NaOH
If the sodium hydroxide solution contains carbonate, methyl orange
must be used in standardization against hydrochloric acid of known
normality. Phenolphthalein and similar indicators, which affected by
CO2 cannot be used. In the case of carbonate – free sodium
hydroxide, phenolphthalein or thymol blue may also be used as the
indicator, and standardization may be made with standard
hydrochloric acid or potassium hydrogen phthalate.

Determination of Boric acids
Principle:
Boric acid act as a weak monobasic acid (Ka = 5.8 x 10-10), and,
therefore, produces no change in colour in methyl orange. If
phenolphthalein is used, the end point appears very rapidly owing to
hydrolysis of the sodium borate formed.
NaBO2 + 2 H2O ⇄
NaOH + H3BO3
If sufficient polyhdroxy compound, e.g. glycerol, is added the
reaction can be made quantitatively, presumably owing to the
formation of a much stronger complex acid of the form (C3H5O2OH)
B(OH). The correct end point is reached when the pink colour no
longer disappears on adding more glycerol.
Procedure:
1Pipette 10 ml sample solution (1 gm in 100 ml water)
2Add 10 ml glycerol previously neutralised and titrate with 0.1 N
NaOH using phenolphthalein as indicator
N.B.
 The quantity of glycerol must be 50 – 30% of the total volume of the
solution. At the end point the volume of glycerol must not fall below
1/3 of the total volume.
 Mannitol is more effective (solid). Dextrose and invert sugar can
also be used.

Determination of borax
Principle:
When borax is dissolved in water. It is hydrolyzed into
Na2B4O7 + 7 H2O ⇄4 H3BO3 + 2 NaOH
If the aqueous solution is titrated with 0.1 N HCl using M.O. as
indicator, it is the NaOH that is actually titrated; boric acid being of no
effect on the indicator, and the net reaction is;
Na2B4O7 + 5 H2O + 2 HCl ⇄ 4 H3BO3 + 2 NaCl
Na2B4O7 . 10 H2O = 2 HCl
The residual solution can be titrated for the remaining boric acid with
0.1 N NaOH after adding glycerol and using ph.ph as indicator. The
reaction would be:
Na2B4O7 + 5 H2O + 2 HCl ⇄ 4 H3BO3 + 2 NaCl
4 H3BO3 + 4 NaOH  4 NaBO2 + 8 H2O
 Na2B4O7. 10 H2O = 4 NaOH
In the other words, when a pure sample of borax containing no free
acid is titrated, the volume of standard alkali used would be exactly
double the volume of standard acid.
14
If the borax solution is treated directly with glycerol and titrated
against 0.1 N NaOH, the solution could be graded as boric acid that
is half neutralised.
Procedure:
A) To 10 ml sample (2.0gm in 100 ml distilled water) add 3 drops methyl
orange and titrate with 0.1 N HCl
B) To the titrated solution add an equal volume of glycerol and titrate
with 0.1 N NaOH using phenolphthalein as indicator. the volume of 0.1
N NaOH must be double that of 0.1 N HCl, if the sample of borax is
pure

(e.g. BaCl2 .2H2O)
Principle:
The alkaline earth metal (e.g. Ba2+) is precipitated as its insoluble

solution is then boiled, cooled to about 0oC and the excess sodium
carbonate remaining is titrated with 0.1 N HCl using phenolphthalein
as indicator, multiply the volume of acid by 2.

7. Determination of Potassium Persulphate
(e.g. K2S2O8)
Principle:
When a salt of potassium persulphate is boiled in presence of a
suitable catalyst, the salt decomposes as follows:
2 K2S2O8 + 2 H2O = 4 KHSO4 + O2
the resulting KHSO4 may be titrated with standard alkali using methyl
orange as indicator.
Procedure:
To 20 ml sample (4.0 gm in 50 ml cold water) add methyl orange and,
if the indicator goes red, bring back the yellow colour with 0.1 N
NaOH. This is a measure of KHSO4 in K2S2O8.
Now add about 5 drops 0.1 N AgNO3 and boil for 30 minutes, cool,
add methyl orange and titrate with 0.1 N NaOH.
K2S2O8 + 2 H2O = 4 KHSO4 + O2

8. Determination of mixture of Carbonate and Bicarbonate
(e.g. Na2CO3 and NaHCO3)
Principle:
Two methods may be used:
A) The total alkali (carbonate and bicarbonate) is determined by
titration with standard acid, using as indicator methyl orange, or
bromophenol blue.
The carbonate content is determined by a similar titration but using
phenolphthalein as indicator. The volume of standard acid used in the
titration is multiplied by two to correspond to the carbonate content
in the aliquot taken.
B) The total alkalinity is determined as in method (A). the bicarbonate
content is determined by transforming into carbonate by addition of
a very slight excess of standard NaOH, the total carbonate
precipitated with BaCl2, and the residual NaOH titrated with standard
acid, using phenolphthalein as indicator.
Procedure (A)
120 ml samples (1 gm in 200 water) diluted with 50-ml water and
titrated with 0.1 N HCl using methyl orange as indicator.
This is a measure of carbonate and bicarbonate.
2Another 20 ml sample diluted with water and titrated with 0.1 N
HCl using phenolphthalein as indicator. Multiply the volume of
standard acid by two, and this would be a measure of the carbonate
content in 20 ml.
3Subtract volume of standard acid equivalent to carbonate from
that used in first step and this would be a measure of the bicarbonate
content in 20 ml.
26
Procedure (B)
1the total alkalinity as under procedure A
2Measure 20 ml sample solution and add 0.1 N NaOH (free from
carbonate) equivalent to ml of 0.1 N HCl used in step 1 (assuming that
the solution contains NaHCO3 only). Dilute with water to about 150 ml,
heat to about 70 oC, and precipitate the carbonate original and
produced- by adding BaCl2 solution (about 0.1 N) in slight excess. Boil
for 2 min. cool to room temperature and immediately titrate with 0.1
N HCl using phenolphthalein as indicator (or thymol blue) as indicator
until the pink colour is almost discharged (or the blue colour changes
into yellow).
The difference between ml 0.1 N HCl used in 1 and that used in 2 is a
rough measure of the bicarbonate or, in other words, of the volume
of 0.1 N NaOH required to transform the bicarbonate into carbonate.
3The process is repeated until the volume of 0.1 N NaOH added
to transform the bicarbonate into carbonate is reduced to a
minimum, indicated by the fact that when the pink colour produced
on addition of phenolphthalein after precipitation with BaCl 2 solution
is discharged by not more than 3 – 4 drops of 0.1 N HCl.
40.1N HCl used to discharge the pink colour after addition of
phenolphthalein is subtracted from ml 0.1 N NaOH added, and the
difference is a measure of the NaHCO3. subtract that difference from
total 0.1 N HCl used in 1 and the balance is equivalent to Na2CO3

9. Determination of mixture of calcium oxide and calcium
carbonate
Principle:
The estimation is based on the facts that:
1CaO suspended in water is alkaline to phenolphthalein.
2Phenolphthalein loses its colour when (H+) is lower than that
required attacking the precipitate of CaCO3.
3CaO is more soluble in sucrose solution than in water, the
complex calcium saccharate being equally alkaline as CaO.
Procedure:
1- To 20 ml sample solution (0.5 gm of mix., 2ml alcohol add 100 ml
10% sucrose solution) add 10 drops phenolphthalein and titrate with
0.5 N HCl solution.
The number of ml of 0.5 N acid ia a measure of CaO
2- To another 20 ml sample in beaker add known excess of 0.5 N HCl
sufficient to convert all carbonate to oxide. Boil off Co 2, cool and
titrate the excess acid with 0.5 N NaOH using phenolphthalein as
indicator.
3- Subtract the volume of 0.5 N HCl used in steps 1 from that
consumed by the mixture in step 2, the difference is equivalent to
CaCO3 in 0.5 gm of the sample.

Determination of mixture of boric acid and borax
Principle:
Solutions of alkali borate may be titrated with standard acid using
methyl orange as indicator. They react towered this indicator as if they
were solutions of alkali hydroxides. They behave as dinormal bases
when titrated with acids.
Na2B4O7. 10 H2O + 2 HCl = 4 H3BO3 + 2 NaCl + 5 H2O
While the liberated boric acid consumes 4 molecules of NaOH when
titrated with alkali, using phenolphthalein as indicator in presence of
glycerol.
29
Procedure:
1. Titrate 20 ml sample solution with 0.1 N HCl using methyl orange as
indicator. (this is a measure of the borax)
2. To the same solution add glycerol previously neutralised to
phenolphthalein (equivalent to the bulk of the solution) and titrate the
boric acid –original and resultant – with 0.1 N NaOH, using
phenolphthalein as indicator.
3. Multiply the number of ml 0.1 N HCl used with methyl orange by two
and subtract the product from ml of 0.1 N alkali used with
phenolphthalein. The difference corresponds to boric acid originally
present is the free state

Precipitmetric determination
1. Determination of Zinc salts (e.g. ZnO)
Principle:
Zinc ions in neutral or acid medium react with ferrocyanide forming
a precipitate of potassium zinc ferrocyanide:
2 K4Fe(CN)6 + 3 Zn2+ = K2Zn3(Fe(CN)6)2 + 6 K+
The end point is detected by an external indicator such as uranyl
acetate, ammonium molybdate or ferric chloride. An internal
indicator is preferentially used, e.g. diphenylamine
Procedure:
1- To 10 ml sample add 1 gm NH4Cl and dilute with 50 ml water.
2- Add 1 drop of ferric sulphate solution and 2 - 3 drop
diphnylamine indicator
3- Awit till the blue violet colour develops and titrate with 0.05 N
potassium ferrocyanide solution with vigorous shaking till the blue
colour changes to a permanent pale green.
Calculation
2 K4Fe(CN)6 + 3 Zn2+ = K2Zn3(Fe(CN)6)2 + 6 K+
2 K4Fe(CN)6 + 3 Zn
K4Fe(CN)6 = 3/2 Zn

2- Determination of mercuric chloride
Principle:
when HgCl2 solution is added drop by drop to a KI solution, a red
precipitate of HgI2 mercuric iodide is formed when the two liquids first
come in contact with one another, but on stirring it redissolves in
excess KI owing to the formation of soluble complex iodide.
HgCl2 + 2 KI = HgI2 + 2 KCl
(red ppt.)
HgI2 + 2 KI = K2HgI4
(soluble)
The total reaction is, therefore:
HgCl2 + 4 KI = K2HgI4 + 2 KCl
37
After all the potassium iodide has been converted into potassium
mercuric iodide, the addition of a drop excess of HgCl 2 produces a
permanent brilliant red colour, due to the formation of the insoluble
HgI2, which even in the smallest quantity communicates its tint in the
liquid.
HgCl2 + K2HgI4 = 2 HgI2 + 2 KCl
Procedure:
To 10 ml 0.1 N KI in conical flask, titrate with HgCl2 sample (in burette)
drop by drop with constant stirring till brilliant red colour.
Calculation
HgCl2 = 4 KI
1ml 0.1 N KI =
HgCl2
4x10x1000
= 271.52 = 0.006788 gm HgCl2

3 Determination of mixture of chloride iodide
(e.g. KCl and KI)
Principle:
These two ions differ in the ease which they are adsorbed on the
corresponding silver halide. This makes it possible to select adsorption
indicators, which will permit of the estimation of chloride and iodide
in the presence of one another. Thus, the iodide may be determined
with eosin by titration with standard AgNO3, and the total iodide
chloride by similar titration with fluorescein; chloride is obtained by
difference.
Procedure:
1- 20 ml sample + 50 ml water + 1 ml fluorescein indicator, titrate
with 0.05N AgNO3 solution - the end point red colour on the
precipitate (Total)
2- New 20 ml sample + 50 ml water + 1 ml eosin titrate , with 0.05 N
AgNO3 until red colour is formed on the precipitate
e.p.1 - e.p.2 = Cl
