The EASIEST Way To Understand Back Titration I Form Three Mole

Undestand Back Titration Like Never Before:
Introduction:
#Titration a quantitative analytical method, involves the gradual addition of a known concentration of solution (titrant) to a solution of unknown concentration (analyte) until the endpoint, typically signaled by a color change, is reached. This technique relies on a precisely known #stoichiometric relationship between the #titrant and the #analyte to determine the concentration of the latter.
Types of Titrations
While #directtitrations are commonly employed, there are instances where indirect methods prove more advantageous. Back titration, a variant of this technique, is indispensable in scenarios involving insoluble substances, volatile analytes, or impure substances.
The Essence of Back Titration
In back titration, an excess volume of a standard reagent is added to the analyte. The unreacted portion of this reagent is then titrated with another #standardsolution to determine the amount of excess reagent. By subtracting the amount of reagent that reacted with the second titrant from the initial amount added, the quantity of analyte can be calculated.
A Practical Example: Analyzing Impure Sodium Carbonate
Consider a sample of impure #sodiumcarbonate To determine its purity, we employ back titration.
1. Addition of Excess Acid: A known excess volume of standardized #hydrochloricacid (HCl) is added to the impure sodium carbonate sample. The acid reacts with the sodium carbonate to produce #sodiumchloride water, and carbon (IV) oxide.
2. Back Titration:The unreacted hydrochloric acid is then titrated with a standard #sodiumhydroxide (NaOH) solution. This #neutralization reaction establishes the amount of excess HCl.
3. Calculation:By determining the amount of HCl that reacted with the NaOH, we can calculate the amount of HCl that originally reacted with the sodium carbonate. This information allows us to deduce the purity of the sodium carbonate sample.
Key Advantages of Back Titration:
Applicable to insoluble or volatile analytes.
Overcomes challenges associated with direct titration endpoints.
Offers greater accuracy and precision in certain analytical scenarios
In Conclusion
Back titration is a versatile analytical technique that complements direct titration methods. By understanding the underlying principles and steps involved, chemists can effectively determine the concentration of various analytes, expanding the scope of quantitative analysis.

Thumbs up madam 👍👍👍

[@sacdiyaqaliif3469]

Thank you so much

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

You're most welcome 👍

[@Gaskk147]

Nice work..God bless you

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Thanks a lot

[@martingichinga1726]

Hello mwalimu,
Would you make a video on redox titration please?

[@goldensports5595]

Super 👌

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Thank you 👊

[@muriyayakub5270]

Plz do redox also

[@simplifiedbio-chem]

Well explained concepts. Keep it up 💪

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Thanks Mwalimu 🙂

[@AbshirAbdi-xv9db]

You really make me understand Thank you madam

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

You're most welcome 👊

[@AdanMoha-rd9vm]

After seeing NaOH and sulphuric (iv) acid in the lab,,, I immediately come to look for back titration 😢

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

You're at the right place then 😉

[@NicoleKimani]

Thanks tr please can you do direct titration

[@abdiladifabdikadirhanad8430]

Madam do you have tuition classes

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

As of now, no. But I'm planning on having online classes during the school holiday, InshaAllah.
I'll notify you via TH-cam community posts for anyone who's interested in joining.

[@martingichinga1726]

Great video mwalimu,
When a few drops of aqueous NaOH till in excess, no white precipitate is formed. Can sodium ions potassium ions and ammonium ions present be the inferences?

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

This is at times not allowed since this test can not conclusively determine the presence of these three ions. Check out this for more info

[@AshwagSaid]

Thank you madam😊

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Welcome 👊

[@FridahOnkangi]

Did you mean, Boring direct titration😅😅😅. Otherwise asante sana mwalimu for simplifying this concept

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

You're most welcome 😂

[@kulthummohamed7139]

Madam can you please do form 2 chemistry and biology revision

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Do you mean in the form of revision papers?

[@muriyayakub5270]

Madam do u have a group so that u can teach us bio and chem if u have plz add me i will Appreciate.always 👍👍👁️

[@SciCliqueKCSE]

Yes. I do have a platform where students can attend online classes, access notes, submit assignments given, ask questions, etc.
Please note that it's holiday based only and open to select students at a small fee 🙂
