AS Chemistry Coursework Aim: In this experiment I am finding out how much sulphuric acid is present in sodium carbonate solution. How I will find the accurate concentration of sulphuric acid I am to find the accurate concentration of sulphuric acid ranging between 0.05 and 0.15-mol dm-3, I am provided with solid, anhydrous sodium carbonate, and range of indicators. The indicator which I will be using in my experiment is methyl orange, because it is used in most titrations, and it changes colour as a mid strength acid. It has sharper end point then universal indicators. The pH of methyl orange is 3.1 - 4.4. This is the chemical balanced equation that will take place, during my experiment. Equation: H2SO4 (aq) + Na2COaq) › Na2SO4 (aq) + H2O (l) + CO2 (g) From looking at the equation we can see that one mole of aqueous sulphuric acid reacts with one mole of sodium...
