Unit 6 Lab - Temperature Effects of Equilibrium
Photo Documentation
In order to earn full credit for the participation portion of this activity, you must submit at least 2 photos. Required photos are outlined in the procedure below.
Procedure
IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS:
Avoid getting NaOH on your skin. Should you come in contact with
this chemical, immediately wash with water. Review all MSDS
associated with this lab.
Any broken or chipped glassware should be replaced.
Clean up spills immediately.
Create a buffer solution such that the pH=pKa, by adding half the amount of 1.00 M NaOH (prepared from the 6M NaOH provided in your kit) needed to reach the endpoint of 10 mL of vinegar.
This can be performed by titrating a 15.0 mL aliquot of vinegar with 1.00 M NaOH
Record the endpoint volume of NaOH
Add half the endpoint volume of NaOH to another 15.0 mL aliquot of vinegar into the test tube
The solution created in the previous step is a buffer solution such that the pH=pKa
Place the test tube in the 600 mL beaker with enough warm tap water to cover the solution in the test tube.
Place the thermometer in the test tube. Read the temperature and adjust the water until the temperature is near 30°C. (Take a photo)
When the temperature has stabilized record the temperature. Remove the thermometer and insert the pH probe and record the pH.
Insert the thermometer into the test tube and add ice to the bath to lower the temperature by 5°C. (Take a photo)
Repeat steps 4 and 5 in 5°C increments until the solution reaches 10°C.
Download and record all the data in the table linked here: Data Analysis Table. You can also recreate the table and record the data in your lab notebook.

Analysis
Reflect upon the question(s) below and record your response(s)
in your lab notebook. Completion of this analysis will be
beneficial as you prepare for the post-lab quiz.
Your instructor will notify you if submission of this analysis is
required.
Calculate the data for all the columns in the table you downloaded/created during the procedure. Remember the pKa = pH for these buffer solutions.
Plot the data for the last two columns on the right. Plot ln(Ka) on the y-axis and 1/T on the x-axis.
From the plot or from linear regression determine the slope of the best fit line.
From the slope determine the ∆H° for this reaction.
∆H°=_______________________________________________
Was the value of ∆H° what you expected (i.e. exothermic/endothermic)? Explain.
What is the effect on the equilibrium when the temperature is changed? How is this related to ∆H°?

Calculate the molar mass of each Compound :
Gycerol
NaCl
CaCl
This is for the lab experiment on Molar Mass and freezing point,
and these are the results l got.
Solution. Freezing point in degreesC
H2O. 0
Gycerol. -3.5
NaCl. -5.7
CaCl. -4.0
How do these molar masses compare to the theoretical. Calculate the
percent error. glycerol I have 0.04470, and 0.0383 for NaCl and
0.01792 for CaCl. I know there is a constant l am supposed to use
to get the theoretical molar mass, but l am stuck. CALCULATE THE

A [a]ml aliquot of a nitric acid of unknown concentration is pipetted into 125-ml Erlenmeyer flask and 2 drops of phenolphthalein are added. The [b] ml of sodium hydroxide with concentration [c]mol/l is used to titrate the nitric acid solution. What is the molar concentration (mol/l) of the nitric acid solution?
For [a], [b], and [c] each student would have a different set of data. Practice how to solve this problem if [a] =20.00ml of nitric acid, [b] =17.60ml of NaOH, and [c] =0.1092M NaOH.
