Authenticity of evidence
Teachers must manage authenticity for any assessment
from a public source, because students may have access
to the assessment schedule or student exemplar material.
Using this assessment resource without modification may
mean that students’ work is not authentic. The teacher
may need to change figures, measurements or data
sources or set a different context or topic to be
investigated or a different text to read or perform.

Teacher guidelines
The following guidelines are designed to ensure that teachers can carry out valid and
consistent assessment using this internal assessment resource.
Teachers need to be very familiar with the outcome being assessed by the
Achievement Standard Chemistry 91161. The achievement criteria and the
explanatory notes contain information, definitions, and requirements that are crucial
when interpreting the standard and assessing students against it.
Additional information
The teacher should carry out the procedure prior to the student practical assessment
to determine the expected titre for the vinegar sample used.
Context/setting
This activity requires students to carry out a volumetric acid-base analysis to collect
primary data, and to process primary and secondary data to solve simple quantitative
problems.
The students will use volumetric analysis to determine the concentration of ethanoic
acid in a diluted vinegar solution. They will then use provided data relating to oxalic
acid (found in rhubarb) to solve simple quantitative problems.
You may change the pipette size used depending on what is available. 20 or 25 mL
is preferable. The concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution should be
approximately 0.100 mol L-1 and must be accurately known.
Conditions
This individual assessment task is made up of one practical part and one written part.
The suggested time allowed is 1 hour for the practical part and 1 hour for the written
part.
You may choose where to split the assessment resource time-wise and alter the
student instructions accordingly. One possible stopping point could be after the
experimental results have been obtained, leaving all calculations to the second
period.
Resource requirements
Students require access to:

20.0 or 25.0 mL pipette (the task and schedule is based on a 25.0 mL pipette)

Introduction
This assessment resource requires you to carry out a volumetric acid-base analysis
by titrating a diluted vinegar solution. You are also required to use provided data
relating to oxalic acid (found in rhubarb) to solve simple quantitative problems.
There are two parts to the task: a practical part and a written part. You will be
assessed on both parts. Record your results and calculations.
This is an individual assessment. You have one hour for each part.
Make sure you:

show all working

give your answer to three significant figures

use appropriate units.
Task
Vinegar has been known since ancient times. It is produced when wine goes sour
and is often used as an ingredient in salad dressings and pickles because of its
acidic nature. The active ingredient is ethanoic acid.
Ethanoic acid is one of the simplest carboxylic acids. It is an important chemical
reagent and industrial chemical, used in the production of soft drink bottles, PVA
glue, and synthetic fibres and fabrics. In the food industry, ethanoic acid is used
under the food additive code E260 as an acidity regulator.
Oxalic acid is another commonly occurring carboxylic acid which is found in leafy
plants such as rhubarb. Oxalic acid is toxic to humans in large amounts and can
cause kidney and bladder stones.
Part A: Practical activity
Purpose
You will need to carry out a titration to analyse the diluted household vinegar solution
provided by your teacher. You will need:

vinegar solution.

Part B: Written activity
Rhubarb plants contain 1.36% oxalic acid. Oxalic acid is 26.7% carbon, 2.22%
hydrogen and 71.1% oxygen, and has a molar mass of 90.0 g mol1. Use the
following molar masses to calculate both the empirical formula and the molecular
formula of oxalic acid:
M(C) = 12.0 g mol1 M(H) = 1.00 g mol1 M(O) = 16.0 g mol1 M(Na) = 23.0 g mol1
Leave sufficient space for students to write their answers.
Rhubarb also contains 2.15% malic acid, formula C4H6O5. Calculate the percentage
composition of malic acid.
Leave sufficient space for students to write their answers.
Malic acid reacts with sodium hydroxide. The equation for the reaction is:
C4H6O5 + 2NaOH

C4H4O5Na2 + 2H2O
Calculate the maximum mass of sodium malate, C4H4O5Na2, which could be made
from 15.0g of sodium hydroxide.
Leave sufficient space for students to write their answers.

n(NaOH) = 0.105 x 0.02370 = 2.49 x
n(CH3COOH) : n(NaOH) = 1:1
so n(CH3COOH) = 2.49 x 10-3 mol
c(CH3COOH) = 2.49 x 10-3 / 0.0250 mL

There is no penalty for omitting units or
inappropriate use of significant figures.
The concentration of the original solution is
calculated.
e.g. 0.0995 mol L-1 x 10 = 0.995 mol L-1
Empirical and molecular formula is calculated

Initial and final volumes of sodium hydroxide
used in the titration are recorded.
Titre volumes have been calculated.
At least three titres must fall within a range of
0.2 mL.
The average titre value is calculated and is
within 0.2 mL of the expected outcome.
Using only concordant titres the concentration
of the unknown solution is correctly calculated.
The concentrations calculated must have
correct units and three significant figures.
Mass of sodium malate correctly calculated.
Example:
n(NaOH) = 15.0 / 40 = 0.375 mol
n(NaOH) : n(C4H4O5Na2) = 2:1
so n(C4H4O5Na2) = 0.375 /2
= 0.188 mol
m(C4H4O5Na2) = 0.1875 x 178
= 33.4g

significant figures.
Example:
n(C) = 26.7/12.0 = 2.23 mol
n(H) = 2.22/1.00 = 2.22 mol
n(O) = 71.1/16.0 = 4.44 mol
