GENERAL PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN THE

LABARATORY
1. Never work in the laboratory unless a demonstrator or teaching assistant is present.
2. Do not throw waste such as match stems filter papers etc. into the sink. They must be
thrown into the waste jars.
3. Keep the water and gas taps closed expect when these utilities are needed.
4. Never taste any chemical unless instructed to do so and don’t allow chemicals to come
in contact with your skin.
5. While working with gases, conduct the experiment in a fume hood.
6. Keep all the doors and windows open while working in the laboratory.
7. You should know about the hazards and properties of every chemical which you are
going to use for the experiment. Many chemicals encountered in analysis are poisonous
and must be carefully handled.
8. Sulphuric acid must be diluted only when it is cold .This should be done by adding it
slowly to cold water with stirring ,and not vice versa.
9. Reagent bottles must never be allowed to accumulate on the work bench. They should
be placed back in the shelves as and when used.
10. Containers in which reaction to be performed a little later should be labeled. Working
space should be cleaned immediately.

VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS
BASIC CONCEPTS OF VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS
Chemical analysis of the compounds is carried out in two ways

1. Qualitative analysis.
2. Quantitave analysis.
Qualitative analysis shows what element a given contains.
Quantities analysis determines the quantity of a particular component present in substance.
It is carried out in two ways
1. Gravimetric analysis.
2. Volumetric analysis.
Gravimetric analysis involves the estimation of the amount of a given compound from the
results of weighing.
Volumetric analysis is based on the measuring the volume of the solution of a substance.
Terms involved in volumetric analysis
1. Titration: The process of finding out the volume of one of the solution required to react
completely with a definite volume of one the other solution of known concentration is called
titration.
2. Titrant: The solution of known strength is called titrant.
3. Titrate: The solution whose concentration to be estimated.
4. Indicator: The reagent which indicates the endpoint or equivalent point of the titration.
The strength of concentration of a solution is expressed in the following ways.
NORMALITY:
Number of gram equivalents of the substance dissolved per liter of the solution is called
Normality.
It is denoted by N
Normality = Wsolute/Esolute × 1/Vsovent (in lit)
Where E is Gram equivalent weight
MOLARITY:
Number of grams moles of a solute dissolved per liter of solution is called Molarity.
It is denoted by M
Molarity = Wsolute/Msolute × 1/Vsovent (in lit)
Where M is Gram molecular weight
MOLALITY:
It is the number of mole of the substance dissolved in 1kg of the solvent it is denoted by (m).
Molality = Wsolute/Msolute × 1/Wsovent (in kg)

EXPERIMENT-I
ESTIMATION OF FERROUS IRON BY DICHROMETRY
AIM: To estimate the amount of ferrous iron present of the whole solution with the help of
standard solution of potassium dichromate.
APPARATUS: Beaker, burette, pipette, conical flask, volumetric flask.
CHEMICALS: K2Cr2O7, diphenylamine, Conc. H2SO4, Distilled water.
THEROY AND PRINCIPLE:
Ferrous iron is oxidized to ferric iron by potassium dichromate in acid solution. The completion
of the oxidation of reaction is marked by the appearance of blue violet color of the
diphenylamine which is used as an internal indicator.
K2Cr2O7 +4H2SO4 → K2SO4 +Cr2 (SO4)3 +4H2O+3(O)
3[2FeSO4 +H2SO4+ (O) → Fe (SO4)3 +H2O]
K2Cr2O7 +6FeSO4 + 7H2SO4→K2SO4 + 3Fe2 (SO4)3 +Cr (SO4)3 + 7H2O
The equivalent weight of iron is its atomic weight i.e.55.86 since one equivalent of potassium
dichromate oxidizes one equivalent of iron.
PROCEDURE:
1) Preparation of standard potassium dichromate: weigh out accurately about 0.49gms of

potassium dichromate into a standard flask into a100 ml standard flask and dissolve the
solid in a small quantity of distilled water .make up the resulting solution with distilled
water up to the mark and shake the flask well for uniform concentration.
2) Preparation of acid mixture: Mix up 100 ml of phosphoric with 300ml of concentrated

H2S04 in a reagent bottle and stopper it.
3) Preparation of diphenylamine: Dissolve 1gm of diphenylamine in 100ml of concentrated

H2S04.
Standardization of ferrous iron:

Rinse the burette with K2Cr2O7 solution and take K2Cr2O7 solution up to the zero of the
burette. Pipette out 20ml of ferrous solution into a 250ml conical flask, add 5ml of acid
mixture and 2drops of diphenylamine indicator. Titrate the resulting solution with
potassium dichromate taken in the burette till blue violet color is obtained as end point.
Repeat the titration to get concurrent values.

EXPERIMENT-10
POTENTIOMETRICTITRATION OF WEAK ACID vs. STRONG BASE
AIM: - To Determine the concentration of a weak acid by a Potentiometry titration given a
strong base of known concentration.
APPARATUS:- Potentiometer, Pt-electrode, Calomel electrode, Salt bridge, 150 ml beakers,
Stirrer, Pipette, Burette.
CHEMICALS: - 0.1m NaOH, 0.1m CH3COOH, Quinhydrone solid, KCl Solution.
PRINCIPLE: - The quinhydrone electrode is prepared by taking saturated solution of

quinhydrone in a known quantity of strong acid whose concentration is to be determined. This
electrode is combined with thecalomel electrode to make the cell. Pt, Hg,
Hg2Cl2(s)/Saturated//H+/QH2/Pt
In acid medium quinhydrone exist in two forms.
CH3COOH + NaOH → CH3COONa+H2O
As NaOH is added to a solution of H+ ions with quinhydrone the H+ ions are consumed steadily
and the relative concentration of QH2 and Q changes with the titration. At the end point where all
the ions are consumed, QH2 gets completely converted to Q. the electrode potential of the
electrodes is given as per the nearest equation.
Procedure: - Pipettes out 10 ml of the given CH3COOH solution into a clean100ml beaker add a
pinch of quinhydrone and stir it well to make a saturated solution of quinhydrone is H+. dip a
platinum electrode. Take a second beaker with saturated KCl solution in it. Dip the calomel
electrode in it. Connect two beakers with a salt bridge; connect the terminals of the potentiometer
with the two electrodes. Note the emf of the cell. Fill a burette with 0.1 NaOH, add 0.5ml of NaOH
into the beakers containing acid, stir well for equilibrium to establish. Note the emf of the cell
once again. The variation of emf by successive addition of 0.5 ml of NaOH. Each time will be about
10-20mv, as the endpoint approaches, the fall in the emf would increase from 10-20 mv to 40-50
mv. At this stage add NaOH in batches of 0.2 ml and note emf after each addition. At the end point
the emf falls suddenly by about 100-150 mv. Continue the titration with 0.2 ml of NaOH and note
5-6 emf values. Now the variation is emf gets smaller and takes 4-5 emf readings, after the
endpoint by adding batches of 1ml of NaOH each time, tabulate the results.
