This experiment uses a pH electrode and visual indicators to follow
the course of an acid-base titration.
Acetic acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to make sodium acetate and water: HOAc + NaOH ® NaOAc + H2O or, HOAc + OH- ® OAc- + H2O Materials. Standard NaOH solution. Indicators: phenolphtalein, methyl orange. pH-meter with pH-sensitive electrodes. Buret Procedure.
Calculations.
Your results can be written in such format: Experiment 3. Name _______________________ Date _____________ Volume of NaOH Titration No.1 _______ mL
