Determining the Concentration of Limewater Solution Aim... The aim of my experiment is to find the exact concentration of limewater. In order to this I shall firstly dilute the hydrochloric acid provided and then by using the titration method the exact concentration of the limewater will be found. Important Calculations... The reaction that is going to take place will be a neutralisation reaction. Ca(OH)2(aq) + 2HCl(aq) CaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l) Limewater + Hydrochloric Acid Calcium Chloride + Water This reaction will take place during the titration. As mentioned before the main aim of the experiment is to calculate the exact concentration of Limewater (Calcium Hydroxide solution). The information I have been provided with states that the limewater contains 'approximately' 1gdm-3. In order to calculate the exact concentration of limewater we shall assume for the time being that the mass of calcium carbonate is (approx) 1gdm-3. Now the approx moles of calcium carbonate present in the solution...
