Transcribed Image Text:Lab
This procedure is one type of redox titration known as an iodometric analysis. In the first step, excess potassium iodide is
added to a solution of bleach and is oxidized to iodine by the hypochlorite ion. Acetic acid is added to provide the
hydrogen ion needed for the reaction.
CIO +2H+ + 21- ----- 12 + Cl- + H2O
The amount of iodine formed by this reaction is found by titrating with sodium thiosulfate solution.
12 + 2S2032- ----- 21- + S4062-
Step 1
Use 5ml pipet to measure out a sample of a laundry bleach and transfer to a 250ml volumetric flask. Using the density of
bleach (1.11g/cm³) determine the mass of the 5ml sample.
Step 2
Fill the buret with the sodium thiosulfate solution. The concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution is 0.100M.
Step 3
Place 50ml of bleach solution into a flask. Add a stir bar and stir the solution gently using the stir plate.
Step 4
Add 2 gr of potassium iodide to the flask. The amount added does not have to be precise. Add 10ml of glacial acetic acid
Step 5
Add about 2ml of the starch indicator
Step 6
Titrate slowly until the blue color disappears. Document the value when the blue color disappears.
Blue color disappears at 17.5ml
