Introduction
Analisis volumetri merupakan teknik penetapan jumlah sampel melalui perhitungan volume Bahan bahan yang diperlukan:
Zat yang diketahui konsentrasinya yang akan bereaksi dengan senyawa yang akan dicari konsentrasinya (unknown) Indikator yang akan menunjukkan kapan reaksi selesai Alat alat yang dapat mengukur volume secara akurat.
The Equipment
Alat yang dibutuhkan:
Pipette/pipet – mengukur larutan secara tepat (pipet volume/ukur, pipet gondok)
Burette/buret – meneteskan sejumlah reagen cair dalam eksperimen yang memerlukan presisi, seperti pada eksperimen titrasi
Conical flask/ erlenmeyer – mencampurkan larutan
Wash bottles/botol semprot – berisi air suling untuk membersihkan peralatan
Funnel/corong – membantu memasukkan cairan kedalam wadah yang memiliki lubang sempit agar tidak tumpah
Volumetric flasks/labu takar – mengencerkan atau membuat larutan dengan volume tertentu secara akurat.
The Process - Preparation
Two solutions are used:The solution of unknown concentration;The solution of known concentration – this is also known as the standard solution
Write a balanced equation for the reaction between your two chemicalsClean all glassware to be used with distilled water. The pipettes and burettes will be rinsed with the solutions you are adding to them
Buret dijepit pada clamp stand di atas erlenmeyer
Buret diisi larutan (misalnya larutan standar)
Pipet untuk memindahkan larutan ke erlenmeyer
Tambahkan indikator ke erlenmeyer
Process – The Titration
Baca volume awal larutan dalam buret Buka kran untuk memulai reaksi ke dalam erlenmeyer, goyang erlenmeyer secara kontinyu. Pada saat indikator mulai berubah warna, kecepatan aliran buret mulai diperlambat. Ketika perubahan warna permanen, hentikan aliran dan baca volume akhirnya. Volume total yang dioerlukan disebut titer. Ulangi titrasi, karena anda telah mengetahui volume sebelumnya, maka anda dapat mengulanginya dengan lebih tepat.
Calculations – Mean Titre
We will have a number of titres for each solution we analysed. The first thing we do is to calculate the mean (average) titre:
Titres = 12.6 ml 13.0 ml 13.1 ml 12.9ml
Mean = Sum of the titres / number of titres= (13.0 + 13.1 + 12.9) / 3= 13.0ml
Why did we discard the 12.6 ml reading?
Calculations – The Unknown Concentration – Preparation
1. Write down the balanced equation e.g.H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O
2. Write down everything else we know. This will be:
a. Volume of liquid in the pipetteb. Mean titre (from burette)c. The concentration of the standard solutiond. Was the standard solution in the pipette or in
the burette?
Calculations – The ‘Unknown’ Amount
3. Now calculate the amount in the standard solution you used. Use the n = cv formula. Remember: the millilitres must always be converted into litres for these formulae
4. Now that you know how many moles of the standard you used, look at the balanced equation. Would you need more or less of the ‘unknown’ substance in a balanced reaction?
If more, then how much more – two times, three times?If less, then how much less – half as much, one third?
We can calculate the amount of the unknown:We multiply if we need more i.e. 2x, 3x, …etcWe divide if we need less i.e. ½ = divide by 2, …etc
Calculations – The ‘Unknown’ Concentration
5. Now we have the volume and amount of the ‘unknown’ substance. We can now rearrange our n = cv formula to say c = n/v
Remember: All the calculations must be in litres (not millilitres)The final value must have units (molL-1) written after it
Example:
1. H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O
2. - Standard solution = NaOH (in burette) = 0.1molL-1
- Unknown concentration = H2SO4 (from 20ml pipette)- Titres = 12.6ml, 13.1ml, 13.0, 12.9ml- Average titre = (13.1+13.0+12.9) / 3 = 13.0ml
3. Amount of NaOH = cv = 0.1 x (13/1000) = 0.0013mol
4. Amount of H2SO4 = half of NaOH = 0.0013/2 = 0.00065mol
5. Concentration H2SO4 = n/v = 0.00065/(20/1000) = 0.325molL-1

Level 3 – Spot the difference…
Here is an extract from a level 3 titration assessment. It shows an example of a chemical reaction that could be used in a titration:
Hypochlorite ions react with iodide ions according to the equation;
OCl + 2I- + 2H+ Cl + I2 + H2O The iodine produced is then titrated with standardised sodium thiosulfate
solution. It reacts according to the equation below.
I2 + 2S2O32 2I + S4O6
2–
Since starch turns blue in the presence of iodine, it is used as an indicator
for this final reaction. The overall equation for both reactions is:
OCl + 2H+ + 2S2O32 Cl + S4O6
2 + H2O
