To determine the concentration of a solution of ethandioic (oxalic) acid The aim of this experiment is to find the concentration of a sample of ethandioic acid in? g/dm3.i am require to design my own experiment and choose a range of appropriate equipment and apparatus. And think of the indicator as well. I am provided with 250cm3 ethandioic acid .the concentration is too much though so it is necessary to dilute it. The apparatus, equipment and chemicals that I will use are as follows: Equipment and apparatus: 1.pipette 25cm3 2.conical flask 250cm3 3.two burettes 4.white tile 5.clamp and stand 6.funnel 7.beaker 8.filler 9.distilled water 10.volumetric flask Chemicals: 1.indicator (phenolphthalein) 2.Ethandioic acid 3.sodium hydroxide In order to reduce errors it is necessary to choose accurate and reliable equipment. That is why I have chosen the pipette, and burette. All of these instruments have an accuracy of +0.1cm3,which is suitable for my experiment and should produce accurate and reliable results. In making my choice of...
