Mass of zinc = 1.050 g.

 

 

  1. Calculate the number of moles of zinc in the 250 mL flask. please show working out. thank you 
PROCEDURE:
1. In a weighing bottle, weigh out accurately on the analytical balance 0.9 - 1.1 g of the
zinc metal provided.
2.
Transfer the metal carefully to a 50 ml conical flask and in the fume hood, carefully add ~4
ml of concentrated HCl into the flask to dissolve the metal
3.
Cool the solution and add concentrated NaOH drop-wise until a permanent faint white
precipitate forms.
4. Add 5 M HCl drop-wise to neutralize the solution until the zinc hydroxide (Zn(OH)2)
precipitate just dissolves. Add a further 5 drops more of the acid to acidify the solution.
Transfer the solution carefully to a 250 ml volumetric flask and make up to the mark with
distilled water. Stopper the flask firmly and shake it to ensure a homogeneous solution.
Using a buretta deliver exactly 20.00 ml of the standard zinc solution into a clean
5.
6.
250 ml conical flask. Add 70 ml of distilled water and 10 ml of the buffer solution (pH = 10).
Then add four (4) drops of the indicator solution
7.
Repeat step (6) a further 3 times so that you have a total of four conical flasks of solution for
consecutive titrations.
8. Titrate with the EDTA solution until the end-point is reached (WINE-RED to PURE
BLUE).
9. Repeat the titration until three (3) concordant results are obtained.
