Details: Determination of the reacting volumes of solutions of a strong acid and a strong alkali by titration.
(HT only) determination of the concentration of one of the solutions in mol/dm3 and g/dm3 from the reacting volumes and the known concentration of the other solution.
Techniques: Use of appropriate apparatus to make and record a range of measurements accurately, including volume of liquids. The determination of concentrations of strong acids and strong alkalis.
Skills: Carry out experiments appropriately having due regard for the correct manipulation of apparatus, the accuracy of measurements and health and safety considerations. Make and record observations and measurements using a range of apparatus and methods. Recognise and use expressions in decimal form. Use ratios, fractions and percentages. Use an appropriate number of significant figures.
