FINDING OUT HOW MUCH ACID THERE IS IN A SOLUTION Analysis Results Table When I performed the titration, these are the results I obtained: Rough 1 2 3 4 Final 30.30 30.15 30.10 30.25 30.15 Initial 0 0 0 0 0 Titre 30.30 30.15 30.10 30.25 30.15 The three sets of underlined results are those that are in 0.1cm3 of each other. (30.15 + 30.15 + 30.10) / 3 = 30.13cm-3 Average Titre = 30.13cm-3 Calculations This equation shows what will happen when the solution of sodium carbonate reacts with the sulphuric acids, and I need this to perform my calculations: H2SO4 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) --> Na2SO4 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O(l) Concentration of Sodium Carbonate used: Concentration = Number of Moles / Volume Number of moles = Mass / RFM = 2.65 / 106 = 0.025 moles Therefore: Concentration = Number of Moles / Volume = 0.025 / 0.250 = 0.1 moldm-3 To find out the number of moles in the actual amount being titrated each time I have to divide the number of moles in the conical flask by 10 because 250 /...
