- You are preparing a 100.0 mL standard solution needed for titration analysis. The NaOH (40 g/mol) pellets are measured to be 0.5341 g in a balance with acceptable uncertainty of +0.001 g. Mass of the pellets is recorded after taring the container. The pellets are put in a beaker and added with 50 ml distilled water measured by a graduated cylinder. The solution is then quantitatively transferred to a 100-mL volumetric flask with uncertainty of ±0.08 mL and diluted to a 100-mL mark. What is the concentration (M) of the solution and estimate its uncertainty by propagation? Assumption: There is no uncertainty in molar mass. Express your answer as C+/- u M.arrow_forwardAnalytical chemistry is a particular field within the broader spectrum of the chemical sciences, in which many times the focus of analytical experiments is to develop new methods to analyze compounds, either structurally or by determining concentrations of compounds. One of the processes analytical chemists use to determine the exact concentration of a working solution is called standardization. In your own words, describe the differences between a primary, secondary, and tertiary standard, and describe the underlying concept behind the standardization process.
