Finding out how much acid there is in a solution In this plan the apparatus which I am going to use are listed below: 1. Sulphuric acid 2. Sodium carbonate 3. Phenolphthalein as the indicator 4. Balance 5. Burettes 6. Conical flasks 7. Volumetric flasks 8. Pipettes 9. Measuring cylinder 10. White tile 11. Clamp stand The quantities of materials that I have chosen are the concentration of sulphuric acid is 0.15mol dm-3. In addition to this concentration; the volume of hydrochloric acid which is going to be used is 20cm³ of the acid. From this I can calculate the number of moles of the sulphuric acid, as follows: Moles= c x v Where c= concentration v= volume = 0.15 x (20/1000) = 0.003M Therefore; we now know the number of moles present with this amount of sulphuric acid. The equation of the following reaction is shown below: Na2 CO3 + H2SO4 Na2SO4 + CO2+ H2O As the ratio of moles of sulphuric acid and sodium carbonate...
