LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of this lesson, students should be able to:• Explain the meaning of neutralisation precisely.• Explain the application of neutralisation in daily life.• Write equations for neutralisation reactions• Describe acid-base titration.• Determine the end point of titration during
neutralisation.• Solve numerical problems involving neutralisation
reactions to calculate either concentration or volume of solutions.
NEUTRALISATION
Neutralisation is a reaction between acid and base to produce salt and water.
Acid Base Salt Water
Examples:HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq)+ H2O (l)
H2SO4 (aq) + CuO (aq) CuSO4 (aq) + H2O (l)
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)
H+Cl-(aq) + Na+OH- (aq) Na+Cl- (aq) + H2O (l)
Chemical Equation
Ionic Equation
H+(aq) + OH- (aq) H2O (l)
APPLICATION OF NEUTRALISATION
Soil treatment

ACID-BASE TITRATION
Titration
End point Is the point in the titration at which the indicatorchanges colour.
Quantitative analysis that involves the gradual addition of a chemical solution from a burette to another chemical solution of known quantity in a conical flask.

ACID-BASE TITRATION
Question 1:
25.0 cm3 of sulphuric acid is neutralised by 34.0 cm3 of 0.1 mol of dm-3 NaOH. Calculate the concentration of sulphuric acid in:
(a) mol dm -3
(b) g dm-3
[relative atomic mass; H:1, S:32, O:16]
2NaOH + H2SO4 Na2SO4 + 2H2O
Step 1 : write down chemical equation
Step 2 : find the number of mole NaOH
n=MV
Moles of NaOH= molarity X Volume (dm3)= 0.1 X 0.034= 0.0034 mol
Solution:
Method 1
Step 3 : from the chemical reaction, the ratio of
2 4 1
2
number of moles of H SO
number of moles of NaOH
Step 4 : find the number of moles of H2SO4 reacted
2 mole of NaOH = 1 mole of H2SO4
0.0034 mole of NaOH =
= 0.0017 mol
0.0034 1
2mol
Step 5 : find the concentration of H2SO4 in mol dm-3
Concentration = mol/volume= 0.0017/ 0.025= 0.068 mol dm-3
Step 6 : find the concentration of H2SO4 in g dm-3
Molar mass H2SO4 = 1(2) + 32+ 16(4)= 98 g mol-
Concentration = concentration in mol dm-3 x molar mass H2SO4
= 0.068 x 98 = 6.664 g dm-3
Method 2:

2NaOH + H2SO4 Na2SO4 + 2H2O
Step 1 : write down chemical equation
Step 2 : find the concentration of H2SO4 in mol dm-3
Ma = ? Va = 25 cm3
Mb = 0.1 mol dm-3 Vb = 34 cm3
(0.025) 1
(0.1) (0.034) 2aM
Ma = 0.068 mol dm-3
Step 3 : find the concentration of H2SO4 in g dm-3
Molar mass H2SO4 = 1(2) + 32+ 16(4)= 98 g mol-
Concentration = concentration in mol dm-3 x molar mass H2SO4
= 0.068 x 98 = 6.664 g dm-3
Question 2:
What volume of 0.20 mol dm-3 nitric acid is required to neutralise 0.14 g of potassium hydroxide? [relative atomic mass: O: 16, K:39, H:1]
Ans: 12.5 cm3/0.0125 dm3
Question 3:
15cm3 of an acid with the formula HaX of 0.1 mol dm-3 required 30 cm3 0f 0.15 mol dm-3 sodium hydroxide solution to complete neutralisation. Calculate the value of a.
Ans: 3
