Volumetric Titrations

Classical Stoichiometric Methods involve the use of both volumetric methods (titrations) and gravimetric methods.

Titrations

Example #1: When dealing with volumetric calculations we utilize a stoichiometric chart

Example #5: A 0.4317 g sample of CaCO3 (MW: 100.09 g/mol) is added to flask that also contained 12.50 mL of 1.530 M HBr.

CaCO3 (aq)  +  2 HBr (aq)  →  CaBr2 (aq)  +  H2O (l)  +  CO2 (g)

Additional water is then added to create a 250.0 mL of Solution A. Next 20.00 mL aliquot of solution A is taken and titrated with 0.0980 M NaOH. How many milliliters of NaOH were used? 

NaOH (aq)  +  HBr (aq)  →  H2O (l)  +  NaBr (aq)

Example #6: A 9.2476 g sample of M(OH)2 was mixed with 15.00 mL of 1.530 M HI and diluted to a final 125.0 mL of solution.

M(OH)2 (aq)  +  2 HI (aq)  →  2 H2O (l)  +  MCl2 (aq)

A 12.00 mL aliquot of this diluted solution was taken and titrated with 18.23 mL of 0.0695 M NaOH.

NaOH (aq)   +  HI (aq)  → H2O (l)  +  NaCl (aq)
