Volumetric (titrimetric) Analysis Aim: The aim of this investigation is to find out the concentrations of 5 acids by carrying out volumetric analysis, by which molarity of acids can be determined when they titrate an alkali. Planning: I'll be carrying out an acid-base titration. The acids I will use are citric acid, ethanoic acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulphuric acid. The base I'll be using will be 1Mole Sodium Hydroxide. Chemical reactions are often carried out between substances in solution. The concentration of a solution is measured in terms of number of moles of solute contained in a cubic decimetre of solution. A solution of known concentration is called a standard solution. Such a solution can be used to find the concentration of solutions of other reagents. An acid-base titration is when you add a base to an acid until the end point is reached which is where the moles of...
