Practice Problem: Titration Calculations

Titration is a way to do stoichiometry with acids and bases. The equivalence point tells us something about the moles of acid and base that are present in solution at that moment. And if we know one of those values, we can know the other. Let's calculate some unknown concentrations!

    Hello professor can u help me to solve that:if 38 ml of 2M H3PO3 is used to titrate 150ml of NaOH what is the molarity of the acid?

    nice exercise again! one small thing, the information given shows 35.23 mL NaOH at first but when calculating this changes to 35.24 mL NaOH. No big deal tho, the answer doesn't change cuz of it :P

    Thanks man! But I think there is easier method We can use M1V1=M2V2 and we don't have to convert mL to L because it cancels each other in the process, and you will get the same answer 0.250M x 35.23mL the whole divided by 50mL and you will get 0.17615 to be precise

    This works on monoprotic acids, or reactions that are 1 to 1 mole. It gets janky once you move into diprotic or triprotics.

    I was thinking the same thing, Wow what a roundabout way to do it where Titration Formula works just fine. This is a GREAT reminder of the mole relationship in all this, I would use this in an Honors class, IMO ...and it does factor in if you have a diprotic acid like sulfuric ;)

    Just a comment..You made that very simple calculation a complicated one...since both units are same(ml not mass) we can easily use M1V1=M2V2 equation. I try to make chemistry as simple as possible for my students..this will confuse them.

    I am sorry, but it is same for the titration...The units converted to liters and further...Unless there is difference in the number of molecules reacting on the reactant's side..since it is A+B - C+D reaction the M1V1=M2V2 will work..But if the reaction are like 2A+B ---- A+2B - product..then the different method is used similar to yours...M1V1/M2V2=2/1 .. considering 2 the moles reactant of A and M1V1 for A. The same for B... Well there are 2-3 ways to come to the same conclusion..I just commented on making it easy...But I admit that you make great videos...👍👍✌️

    @@johnsubba7288 You are absolutely right, I teach my students this method as well. When the moles of reactant are not equal (as in the example you showed), you can use the following modified equation: NBCAVA = NACBVB where NA and NB are the stoichiometric coefficients of the acid and base respectively that appear in the BALANCED chemical reaction. CA is concentration of acid, VA is volume of acid. Using this formula, you never have to guess about the mole ratios, and bonus, you don't have to convert mL to L.
