Atitration is performed to calculate the concentration of a solution of a monoprotic acid. the buret is filled with a standardized solution of 158.32 ± 0.05 mm naoh. the initial volume is recorded as 0.14 ml. 25.00 ml of the unknown acid solution are pipetted into an erlenmeyer flask and the solution is titrated to a phenolphthalein endpoint. the final buret reading is 18.76 ml. assuming that the error in each volumetric measurement (buret and pipet) is ±0.03 ml, calculate the concentration of the acid (mm) and use propagation of error to estimate its uncertainty.

The concentration of the acid is 117.92 ± 0.03 mM.

Explanation:

In this problem, the concentration of NaOH and the volume used is given. The volume pipetted from the acid is also given. The concentration of the acid is given by:

CNaOH * VNaOH = Cacid * Vacid

158.32 * (18.76-0.14) = C acid * 25

C acid = 117.92 mM

The propagation of error for this problem, which is a multiplication is the concentration of the acid multiplied by the error divided by its respective value as shown in the equation below

error = 117.92 *

The answer is 0.03 mM of uncertainty.

the answer is:  

line graphs show patterns in data with variables that change over time; whereas, circle graphs show data as parts out of a whole (such as out of 100%).
