Solutions

Expert Solution

mass of solution = 81+220 = 301g

The mass percentage   = 81*100/301 = 26.9%

no of moles of ascorbic acid   = W/G.M.Wt   = 81/176 = 0.46moles

no of moles of water              = W/G.M.Wt   = 220/18    = 12.22 moles

   molae fraction of ascorbic acid   = no of moles of ascorbic acid/no of moles of ascorbic acid + no of moles of water

                                                      = 0.46/0.46+12.22

                                                        = 0.46/12.68   = 0.0363

molality    = W*1000/gram molar mass * weight of solvent

                   = 81*1000/176*220 = 2.09m

volume of solution = 220/1.22    = 180.32ml

molarity    =   81*1000/176*180.32   = 2.55M

In this experiment the concentration of Vitamin C/ascorbic acid is used to find the amount of iodine present through titration and the stoichiometric ratio. Furthermore, by finding the amount of iodine present before and after the equivalence point, the experiment presents us with the amount of iodine that reacts with the Vitamin C in “unknown B”.There were two titrations performed in this experiment, three times each. The first began with 50mL of Sodium Thiosulphate put in a burette. Approximately 2g...

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an example of iodimetric determination, so based on the rules that “in iodimetry (titration with I3), starch can be added at the beginning of the titration. The first drop of excess I3 after the equivalence point causes the solution to turn dark blue. In iodometry (titration of I3), I3 is present throughout the reaction up to the equivalence point. Starch should not be added until immediately before the equivalence point.” However, why starch is still...
