COMMON APPARATUS USED IN CHEMISTRY LABORATORY
EXPERIMENTS
Apparatus;
1. Pipette: Pipettes permit the transfer of accurately known volumes from one
container to another. Commonly we use volumetric pipettes.
2. Burette: Burettes are like a measuring pipette makes it possible to deliver any
volume up to the maximum capacity of the device. A burette consists of a calibrated
tube to hold titrant + a valve arrangement by which the flow of titrant is controlled.
3. Volumetric Flask: Volumetric flasks are manufactured with capacities ranging from
5ml to 5 liter and are usually calibrated to contain a specific volume when filled inline etched on the neck. They are used for the preparation of standard solution and for
dilution of samples to a fixed volume prior to taking aliquots with pipettes.
4. The Burette Stand
5. Standard Flask: The flask filled with standard solution known as standard flask.
Terms involved in titrations:
1. Titration; The process of finding out the volume of one of the solution
required to react completely with definite volume of the other solution of
known concentration is called as titration
2. Titrant : the solution of known strength is called titrant.
3. Titrate : the solution which contains the substance to be estimated
4. Indicator: The reagent which indicate the end point are equivalent point of the
titration
5. Standard Solution : A solution of known concentration that is exactly used in
titrimetric analysis is known as “standard solution”.
6. Equivalence Point : equivalence point is the point in a titration when the
amount of added standard reagent is exactly equivalent to the amount of
analyte.
7. End Point: End point is the point in a titration when a physical change occurs
i.e., associated with the condition of chemical equivalence.

1. HARDNESS OF WATER : Hardness of water is a particular characteristic
property which prevents lathering of soap.
Water are two typesHard water: Is a one which contains Ca, Mg bicarbonates, carbonates,
silicates and sulphates
When a sample of hard water treated with soap solution it does not give lather
Soft water: soft water Is a one which does not contain Ca, Mg bicarbonates,
carbonates, silicates and sulphates
When a sample of soft water treated with soap solution it gives more lather
Hardness can be expressed by the following units
(i) Ppm parts per million
(ii) Degree/ clark
(iii) Degree/ french
(iv) In terms of caco3 equivalentHardness are two types
a. Temporary hardness: the hardness which can be easily removed by the
process of boiling is called temporary hardness it is caused due to the presence
of bicarbonates of ca & mg.
b. Permanent hardness: The hardness which cannot be removed by the process
of boiling is called permanent hardness it is caused due to the presence of ca &
mg chlorides, sulphates
(a) EDTA Titrations (or complexometric titrations): The titrations
involving EDTA as a complexing agent is known as”EDTA Titrations” (or)
“Complex Formation Titrations” .EDTA stands for ‘ Ethylene Diamino Tetra Acetic acid ” or “Diamino Ethane
Tetra Acetic Acid ”.
The structure of EDTA is given by
CH2COOH CH2COOH
N - CH2 – CH2 – N
CH2COOH CH2COOH
EDTA forms complexes with metal ions like Ca2+, Mg2+ in aqueous solution.
Complexometric Titration is the titration of metal ion with a reagent, usually
EDTA, which forms chelate complex with a metal.
The indications used are commonly,
(i) Erichrome Black T Indicator (EBT) The colour generally changes from
wine red to blue.
(ii) The structure of EBT:

2. MNO2 IN PYROLUSITE:
Mno2 exists in nature in the form o0f pyrolusite The
Mno2 present in the pyrolusite sample is reduced to a known excess of standardsodium oxalate as acid medium the un reacted sodium oxalate is titrated against a
standard solution of KMno4, here Kmno4 acts as a self indicator
3. ASPIRIN:
The mechanism involved in the preparation of aspirin is Acetylation
4. POLYMER
A polymer is a macro molecule which is obtained by the combination of
monomers. The repeating unit of a monomer is called a polymer.
RUBBERS
The polymer which posses the property of elasticity is called a rubber.
They are of 2 types.
i. NATURAL RUBBER
The rubber which is obtained from nature is called natural rubber.
The latex obtained from heavea brasinilies & gutta percha are examples of
natural rubber
ii. SYNTHETIC RUBBER
The rubber which is prepared from laboratory is called synthetic rubber
These rubbers neither Resemble natural rubber in structure (nor)properties they hare
good resistance to solvents and can with stand cold but not heat
a. They are cheap and can be easily shaped but hare an unpleasant smell .
because of their being practically unaffected by phenol , fuel oils and
lubricating oils they are mostly used for making house pipe and tank
lining for handling these materials

b. vulcanizing of Thiokol using sulphur is not done since it does not yield
the hardened rubber ,vulcanization is done using active material oxides
like Zno
E.g.: Thiokol, Buna-S rubber
5. VISCOSITY The force which apposes between two layers is called
viscous force and the phenomenon is called viscosity .viscosities are 2types
1. Absolute Viscosity: It is the share force required to move a layer of the oil of
one-centimeter thickness over an area of one square centimeter thickness. In
C.G.S system it is expressed in poise and in SI system it is expressed in 1 N-
sec/m2.
1 N-sec/m2 = 10 poise; dyne-sec/cm2=poise
2. Kinematic Viscosity: The ratio of Absolute Viscosity to the density is called
Kinematic Viscosity. In C>G>S system it is expressed in Stokes and is SI
system it is expressed m2/sec.
1m2
/sec = 104
stokes ; 1stoke=cm2
/sec
Effect of temperature on Viscosity: Increase in temperature causes a
decrease in the viscosity of liquid, where as viscosity of gases increase with
temperature, The coefficient of viscosity of unknown liquid is determined by
using Ostwald’s viscometer
coefficient of viscosity
The force acting per unit area is called coefficient of viscosity represented by
A
F =
η
6. SURFACE TENSION
The force per unit length acting along the direction of flow of liquid is called
surface tension. Surface tension is denoted by “r”.
If “f” be the force acting per unit length in the direction
of flow of liquid and “l” be the length of the liquid flows then by definition the
surface tension is given by
r=f/l
. The unit for force is dyne and the unit for ‘l’ is cm so dyne / cm is the unit for
Surface tension. r=f/l dyne / cm.
As the temperature increases surface tension value gradually decreases. The
surface tension is the most important property of fluids.
The phenomenon of rise and fall of a liquid in a capillary tube due to surface
tension known as ‘Capillarity’

7. CONDUCTOMETRIC TITRATIONS :
The titrations involving the addition of standard reagent from the burette to
the analyte present in the conductivity cell involving the change in the
conductance of the analyte with the addition of the standard reagent.
Conductometric titrations are those in which the conductance can be
determined with the help of conductivity measurements. While carrying out
the conduct metric titrations, the following apparatus are to be used.(i) Thermostat
(ii) Conductivity cell
(iii) Conductivity water
(iv) Conductometer.
(v)
The conductance of each volume should be correct for dilution using the formula.
C’= c(v+µ)
V
Where C ‘= corrected conductance
c= observed conductancev= initial volume of solution in a beaker
µ = volume of titrating solution added
a. Conductance : The reciprocal of resistance is known as conductance. It is
denoted by ‘C’.
C=1/R
Units: mho.
b. Conductance Curves:
(a) The curves which is drawn between the volume of the solution added in ml
& corrected conductance C* is known as “conductance curves”.For ex: - (1) for strong acid vs. strong base the conductance curve is given by
(b) Conductance curve of mixture of acids vs. strong base is given by
JBREC

Advantages of Conductometric Titrations :
Conductometric titrations have several advantages:
(a) Coloured solutions cannot be titrated by ordinary volumetric method
using indicator, Conductometric titrations can be successfully carried in
such cases.(b) The end point is not sharp in the case of volumetric titration of weak acid and
weak base.Conductometric titrations give sharp end point.
(c) The results in conduct metric titrations are graphically represented and hence no
special care is necessary near the end point. The results are very accurate.
(d) In order to get accurate results the change of volume during the titration should
be as small as possible. For this purpose, the the titrating solution in the
burette is usually 5 to 10 times more concentrated than the solution taken
into the conductivity cell.
(e) Since the conductivity changes with temperatures, it is necessary to keep the
vessel containing reaction mixture, in water bath at constant temperature.
8. POTENTIO METRIC TITRATIONS :
A potentiometric titration involves measurement of the potential of a suitable
electrode (indicator) as a function of titrant volume. While carrying out the
potentiometric titrations the following apparatus are to be used.
(a) Potentiometer
(b) Magnetic stirrer
(c) Calomel electrode
(d) Pipette
(e) BurettePotentiometric titrations offer additional advantages over potentiometry.
Because the measurement is based on the titrant volume that causes a rapid change in
potential near the equivalence point for detecting end point.
a.Potentiometric Curve : A graph is drawn between EMF and the volume
of the titrant added near the end point 0.1ml portions of the titrant is added each
time and measure. The EMF then drawing graphs to the two jumps the end points
are located. From the graphs the concentrations are calculated. These graphs are
called “Potentiometric titrations curves”. For example potentiometric curve of
weak acid vs. strong base is shown by as shown in figure 2

9. COLORIMETRY:
(i) Lambert’s law: This law was put forward by Lambert and is applicable to
pure Homogenous medium.
When a medium absorbs appreciable amount of light, the intensity of incident
light, is greatly Reduced on passing through it. This reduction in the intensity of light
is given by Lambert’s law.
When beam of monochromatic light is passed through a pure Homogenous
medium, the decrease in the intensity of light with thickness of the absorbing medium
at any point X is proportional to the intensity of the incident light, at that point(X).
Where ‘K’ is constant called coefficient (Absorption) (or) extinction coefficient of the
medium for light of a particular wavelength.
The above equation is known as “Lamberts law equation”
(ii) Beer’s law: (Lambert’s – Beer law)
When the light absorbing substance is present in the solution the decrease in theintensity of light with thickness of solution of given by Beer’s law.
“When a bean of monochromatic light is passed through a solution the decrease in
the intensity of light, with the thickness of the solution is directly proportional to the
intensity of incident light as well as the concentration of the solution
Where є (apsylum) is a constant of proportionality and is called “Molar absorption
coefficient”.

CONDUCTOMETRIC TITRATIONS OF
STRONG ACID-STRONG BASE.
AIM;
To determine the concentration of Hcl by titrating with NaoH solution
conductometrically.
APPARATUS AND CHEMICALS:
Conduct meter, conductivity cell, beakers, pipette, micro burette, Hcl, NaoH,
conductivity water.
PRINCIPLE;
When a strong acid like hydrochloric acid is titrated with strong base like sodium
hydroxide, initially the HCL has a high content of highly mobile hydrogen ions,
which gives the solution a high conductance as the alkali is added the hydrogen
ions are removed to form water, and their place is taken by the much slower
cations of the base. Consequently the conductance of the solution decreases and
keeps falling with the addition of the base until the equivalence point is reached.Further addition of alkali introduces now an excess of the fast hydroxyl ions, and
this causes the conductance to raise again. When the variation of the conductance
of the solution is plotted against the volume of alkali added, a V shape graph is
obtained. The descending branch of this curve gives the conductance of mixtures
of the salt and excess base. At the minimum point, there is no excess acid or base
present and hence it is the end point.
e.q: Hcl + NaoH -------------------- Nacl + H2O
PROCEDURE: The conductivity cell is washed well with water and finally rinsed
with conductivity water. 20ml of 0.1N hydrochloric acid is taken in a beaker and
20ml of conductivity water is added to it. The conductivity cell is immersed into the
solution and is further connected to the conductometer. Standard sodium hydroxide of
1N concentration is taken into micro-burette and 0.2ml of aliquots are added each
time and conductance is measured. The addition of sodium hydroxide is continued till
the end point is reached. There is a fall in conductance at the end point. Once the end
point is reached, the conductance will increase due to the addition of excess sodium
hydroxide. A graph is plotted between the corrected conductance and volume of
sodium hydroxide added. The point of intersection gives the end point. Once the end
point is noted, the concentration of sodium hydroxide is calculated. The experiment is
repeated with the unknown solution and its concentration is determined using the
concentration of sodium hydroxide obtained above. The conductance of each volume
should be correct for dilution using the formula.

Experiment No:9
AIM: To determine the concentration of CH3COOH by titrating with NaoH Standard
solution potentio metrically.
Apparatus and Chemicals:
Potentiometer, burette, pipette, beakers, quinhydrine, calomel electrode, platinum
electrode, CH3COOH & NaoH.
Principle:
When a platinum electrode is dipped in an acid container solution, which is saturated
with quinhydrone solution. The potential of this electrode, changes with the change of
hydrogen ions. When NaoH is added the potential decreases slowly at first and as the
amount of alkali added approaches the end point. The potential change increases
rapidly for the same amount of alkali added after the end point the change in potential once again becomes small. The change in the potential is due to the small
change in concentration of H+ ions and is according with the equation.
E= E1-0.0591 log H+
Procedure:
20ml of 0.1 N CH3COOH is pipette out into a clean 100ml beaker to this pinch of
quinhydrone is added and the solution is stirred well. A Platinum electrode is dipped
into it and this is combined with a colomel electrode and the cell is set up as shown
below
Pt + / quinhydrone in acid // Kcl salt, Hg2cl2 / Hg
NaOH is taken in the burette is added to the acid solution and potential for each
addition is noted, The titration is carried out till there is large jump in potential once
the end point is located, a fine titration is carried out again with 20ml of 0.1 N
CH3COOH by adding 0.1 ml of NaOH near the end point region a large change in the
potential for 0.1 ml addition of NaOH is observed at the end point the graph is plotted
between CH3CooH Vs volume of NaOH. The equivalence point is noted from the
graph and the concentration of the NaOH is determined. The experiment is repeated
with CH3COOH of unknown concentration and its concentration is determined usingthe concentration of NaOH obtained above
