Study Notes

Lecture Content: Analytical Chemistry I

  • Analytical Chemistry is the branch of chemistry concerning the separation, identification, and determination of components in a sample.
  • It's divided into qualitative analysis (identifying components) and quantitative analysis (measuring components' concentration).
  • Quantitative analysis methods include volumetric analysis (using titrations), gravimetric analysis (converting a sample to an insoluble form), and instrumental analysis (using instruments).

Titration

  • Titration is a process to measure the volume of a standard solution (titrant) needed to react with the analyte (sample of unknown concentration) to reach the endpoint
  • Requirements of a titration reaction include
    • Single/Complete reaction - avoiding side reactions
    • Rapid reaction - instantaneous
    • Stoichiometric reaction (balanced chemical equation)
    • Easy-to-detect endpoint (using a visual indicator or instrumental methods)

Types of Reactions Used in Quantitative Analysis

  • Ionic combination reactions
    • Neutralization: H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O
    • Precipitation: Ag⁺ + Cl⁻ → AgCl↓
    • Complexation: Ag⁺ + 2CN⁻ → [Ag(CN)₂]⁻
  • Electron transfer reactions (Redox reactions):
    • Ce⁴⁺ + Fe²⁺ → Ce³⁺ + Fe³⁺

Requirements of Titrimetric Analysis

  • The reaction between sample and standard needs to be both simple and expressible via a chemical equation
  • The reaction must be single – avoiding side reactions
  • A suitable standard solution (titrant) must be available for the sample
  • An easy-to-detect endpoint is necessary
  • The reaction must be fast or use a catalyst.

Standard Solutions

  • Types of standard solutions
    • Impirical
      • Used for specific samples
    • Molar
      • 1M = 1M.Wt (grams)/L
    • Normal
      • 1N = 1 Eq.Wt (grams)/L
  • Equivalent weights of acids = molecular weight / number of replaceable H+
  • Equivalent weights of bases = molecular weight / number of replaceable OH⁻

Chemical Standards

  • Primary Standards:

    • Easily obtained in extremely high purity, well-characterized, known compositions
    • Stable, non-volatile, non-hygroscopic, and readily soluble in solvents
    • Examples include Potassium acid phthalate, benzoic acid, anhydrous sodium carbonate, and constant boiling point hydrochloric acid
  • Secondary Standards:

    • Do not fully meet the requirements of primary standards.
    • They are standardized by comparing them to primary standards.
    • Examples include oxalic acid and borax.

Preparation of Standard Solutions

  • Direct method (Involves 1 step for preparation: used for primary standards)
  • Indirect method (Involves 2 steps for preparation and standardization: used for secondary standards)

Acid-Base Titrations in Aqueous Medium

  • Electrolytic Dissociation Theory describes the dissociation of electrolytes into ions in water
  • Degree of Dissociation = number of dissociated solute molecules/Total number of solute molecules before dissociation
  • Electrolytes classified as strong (close to 1 degree dissociation) and weak (dissociation ≠ 1).

Acid-Base Theories

  • Arrhenius Theory: Acids dissociate to give H⁺; bases dissociate to give OH⁻—limited in scope.
  • Brønsted-Lowry Theory: An acid is a proton donor, and a base is a proton acceptor.
  • Lewis Theory: An acid is an electron pair acceptor, and a base is an electron pair donor.

Equipment

  • Tools used in titrations include burettes, volumetric pipettes, and conical flasks
