Preparation and Stand. of 1 N NAOH

1) Sodium hydroxide is a strong base used to prepare standard alkaline solutions for analyzing acids. It is hygroscopic and reacts with carbon dioxide. 2) To prepare 100 mL of 1 N NaOH solution, 4.5 g of sodium hydroxide is dissolved in distilled water and saturated barium hydroxide is added to precipitate contaminants. 3) The prepared NaOH solution is standardized against 1 N HCl solution using phenolphthalein indicator through titration.

Preparation and Standardization

of 1 N NaOH Solution

 Sodium hydroxide is a strong base that is


usually used to prepare standard alkaline
solutions useful for volumetric analysis of acidic
compounds.
 Sodium hydroxide is hygroscopic and can
react with atmospheric carbon dioxide.

 preparation of 100 mL of 1 N NaOH solution

Dissolve 4.5 g of sodium hydroxide in 100 mL


distilled water, allow to cool, and then add
saturated barium hydroxide solution drop wise
with stirring until a precipitate is formed. Leave
aside allowing for complete precipitation, filter,
and collect the filtrate to be standardized against
1 N HCl solution.

 1 N HCl solution is used as a secondary


standard

 phenolphthalein is used as the indicator

 procedure
 wash the burette with the D. W. and the titrant (NaOH)
 fill the burette with NaOH to a level (adjust it)
 wash a 20 mL – bulb pipette with D. W. then by a little of
HCl solution; fill it to the mark with the acid
 transfer the acid into a clean conical fask; add D.W. (50
mL)
 add 2 drops of phenolphthalein indicator
 start titration by adding NaOH solution drop wise with
continuous stirring until the solution changes from
colourless to pink
record the volume of NaOH solution used and calculate
the normality

Note wash the burette with water thoroughly
