F.CLOUGH ASSESSED PRACTICAL- To determine the concentration of a limewater solution: In this experiment I intend to discover the exact concentration of an unknown limewater solution using the method of titration. In order to produce accurate and reliable results it is necessary to minimise errors occurring in the procedure. In order to achieve this it is necessary to stringently abide to the instructions detailed in this plan: EQUIPMENT: * 250 cm3 limewater solution (Ca(OH)2) (approx. 1g dm-3) * Hydrochloric acid (exactly 2.00 mol dm-3) - Acid solution of known concentration that is to be used to find the concentration of the basic solution. * Distilled water- For dilution of hydrochloric acid to a reasonable level, also to clean out burette and pipette to avoid any anomalous values in results caused by impurities in the solution. * Methyl orange indicator- Acid-base indicator that undergoes a change in colour when the end-point of a titration is reached. * Burette- Graduated...
