Question

A 25. 00 ml sample of acetic acid containing phenolphthalein indicator is titrated with 0. 1067 m naoh. The solution changes color after 30. 07 ml naoh has been added. What is the concentration of the acetic acid before titration?.

Answer 1

The concentration of acetic acid:

The concentration of the acetic acid before titration is 0.128 M

What is titration?

Titration is a quantitative analytical procedure that works by allowing a known analyte to gradually react with a titrant until an endpoint is reached.

Titration for weak acid and strong base:

Moles of acetic acid =  moles of NaOH

Given:

Concentration of NaOH = 0.1067 M

Volume of NaOH = 30.07 ml = 0.03007 L

Calculation:

So, by using the formula, Concentration = Moles/Volume

Moles of NaOH = concentration x volume = 0.1067 x 0.03007 = 0.0032

Therefore, the moles of acetic acid  = 0.0032 mole

Now, using the formula again for determining the concentration of acetic acid, we get,

Concentration = Moles/Volume

Concentration of acetic acid =  0.0032/0.025 = 0.128M
