Determination of the Concentration of Acetic Acid in Vinegar

P U R P O S E Standardize a sodium hydroxide solution using a primary standard acid. Determine the molarity and the percent by mass of acetic acid in vinegar by titration with the standardized sodium hydroxide solution.

I N T R O D U C T I O N The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute (species dissolved) in a given amount of solvent (dissolving agent). A concentrated solution contains a relatively large quantity of solute in a given amount of solvent. Dilute solutions contain relatively little solute in a given amount of solvent. Chemists use specific terms to express the concentration of a solution. Two of these terms are molarity and percent by mass.Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

Molarity ðMÞ ¼ moles of solute liter of solution

ðEq: 1Þ

Percent by mass is the mass in grams of solute per 100 grams of solution.

Percent solute ¼ grams of solute grams of solution

$ 100% ðEq: 2Þ

The grams of solution are the mass of the solute plus the mass of the solvent. For example, a 5.00 % NaCl solution contains 5.00 grams of NaCl and 95.0 grams of H2O in 100.0 grams of solution.

Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid (an organic acid). The molecular formula for acetic acid is CH3COOH. Both the molarity and percent by mass of acetic acid in a vinegar solution can be determined by performing a titration. A titration is a process in which small increments of a solution of known concentration are added to a specified volume of a

solution of unknown concentration until the stoichiometry for that reaction is attained. Knowing the quantity of the known solution required to complete the titration, we can calculate the unknown solution’s concentration.

In the titration process, a buret is used to dispense small, quantifiable increments of a solution of known concentration (Figure 1a). A typical buret has the smallest calibration unit of 0.1 mL (Figure 1b). Therefore, the volume dispensed from the buret should be estimated to the nearest 0.01 mL. (To be consistent, always read the volume of a liquid inside a buret at the bottom of the liquid’s meniscus).

The purpose of a titration is to determine the equivalence point of the reaction. The equivalence point is reached when the added quantity of one reactant is the exact amount necessary for stoichiometric reaction with another reactant. In this experiment, the equivalence point occurs when the moles of acid in the solution equals the moles of base added in the titration. For example, the stoichiometric amount of 1 mole of the strong base, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), is necessary to neutralize 1 mole of the weak acid, acetic acid (CH3COOH), as indicated in Eq. 3.

NaOHðaqÞ þ CH3COOHðaqÞ ! NaCH3CO2ðaqÞ þH2Oð‘Þ ðEq: 3Þ

NOTE: Free Hþ ions, produced by an acid when it is dissolved in water, do not

actually exist in aqueous solution. Instead, the Hþ ions readily react with water to form

H3O þ ions. Chemists use H3O

þ and Hþ interchangeably when referring to hydrogen

ions in aqueous solution

One indicator that the titration has reached the equivalence point is a sudden change in the pH of the solution. The pH of an aqueous solution is related to its hydrogen ion concentration. Symbolically, the hydrogen ion

concentration is written as [H3O þ] (see Note). pH is defined as the negative

of the base 10 logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration.

pH ¼ &log½H3Oþ( ðEq: 4Þ

The common base 10 logarithm of a number is the number that 10 must be raised to produce the original number. For example, the logarithm of 1.00 $ 10&7 is &7. The pH scale is a convenient, short hand method of expressing the acidity or basicity of a solution. The pH of an aqueous solution is typically a number between 0 and 14. Solutions having a pH < 7 are acidic. Solutions with pH ¼ 7 are neutral. Solutions having a pH > 7 are basic. For example, a solution having [H3O

þ] ¼ 2.35 $ 10&2Mwould have a pH of 1.629 and is acidic.

In this experiment, we will measure the pH of a solution using the MeasureNet pH electrode. The titration is initiated by inserting a pH electrode into a beaker containing the acid solution (pH is in the 3-5 range). As sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is incrementally added to the acid solution, some of the hydrogen ions are neutralized. As the hydrogen ion concen- tration decreases, the pH of the solution will gradually increase. When sufficient NaOH is added to completely neutralize the acid (most of the H3O

þ ions are removed from solution), the next drop of NaOH added causes a sudden, sharp increase in pH (Figure 2). The equivalence point is the center of the curve in the region where the pH changes sharply for any acid-base reaction involving 1:1 reaction stoichiometry (Figure 2). The volume of base required to completely neutralize the acid is determined at the equivalence point of the titration.

In this experiment, we will titrate a vinegar sample with a stand- ardized sodium hydroxide solution. To standardize the sodium hydroxide solution, we will initially prepare a primary standard acid solution. In general, primary standard solutions are produced by dissolving a weighed quantity of a pure acid or base in a known volume of solution.

Primary standard acids and bases have several common character- istics: 1) they must be available in at least 99.9% purity, 2) they must have a high molar mass to minimize errors in weighing, 3) they must react by one invariable reaction, 4) they must be stable upon heating, and 5) they must be soluble in the solvent of interest. Potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHC8H4O4, and oxalic acid, (COOH)2, are commonly used primary

standard acids. Sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, is the most commonly used primary standard base.

Most acids and bases (e.g., HCl, CH3COOH, NaOH and KOH) are not available as primary standards. To standardize one of these acid or base solutions, we titrate the solution with a primary standard. In this experi- ment, we will titrate a freshly prepared NaOH solution with potassium hydrogen phthalate (often abbreviated as KHP). The equation for the reaction of KHP with NaOH is

KHC8H4O4ðaqÞ þNaOHðaqÞ ! KNaC8H4O4ðaqÞ þH2Oð‘Þ ðEq: 5Þ

Once the sodium hydroxide solution has been standardized, it will be used to titrate 10.00 mL aliquots of vinegar. The equation for the reaction of vinegar with NaOH is

CH3COOHðaqÞ þNaOHðaqÞ ! NaCH3COOðaqÞ þH2Oð‘Þ ðEq: 6Þ

Knowing the standardized NaOH concentration and using Equation 6, we can determine the molarity and percent by mass of acetic acid, CH3COOH, in the vinegar solution.

Standardizing a Basewith KHP (KHC8H4O4)

To standardize a solution of NaOH, a known mass of KHP is dissolved in enough water to just dissolve the sample. A buret is used to titrate NaOH solution into the beaker containing the KHP solution. The molarity of the NaOH solution is determined by first calculating the number of moles KHP dissolved in solution. Equation 5 indicates that one mole of NaOH is required to neutralize one mole of KHP. This stoichiometric ratio and the moles of KHP in solution are used to calculate the moles of NaOH required to neutralize the KHP. The volume of NaOH used is the titration is determined at the equivalence point from a plot of pH of the solution versus milliliters of NaOH added. The molarity of the NaOH solution is calculated by dividing the moles of NaOH by the volume of NaOH in liters used to neutralize the KHP solution.

Determining theAcetic Acid Concentration inVinegar

A 10.00 mL aliquot of vinegar is titrated with the standardized NaOH solution. To determine the molarity of acetic acid in vinegar, we first cal- culate the moles of NaOH required to neutralize the acetic acid in the sample. The moles of NaOH required is the product of the molarity of the standardized NaOH solution times the volume of NaOH used in the titration. Equation 6 indicates that one mole of NaOH is required to neu- tralize one mole of acetic acid. This stoichiometric ratio and the moles of NaOH used in the titration are used to calculate the moles of acetic acid in the vinegar sample. The molarity of the acetic acid is obtained by dividing the moles of acetic acid in the sample by the liters of vinegar solution used in the titration.

Dividing the mass of acetic acid in vinegar by the mass of the vinegar solution, then multiplying by 100%, yields the mass percent of acetic acid in vinegar. The mass of acetic acid is the product of the moles of acetic acid in the sample times the molar mass of acetic acid. The mass of the solution is equal to the volume of the vinegar used in the titration times the density

of vinegar solution. In this experiment, assume the density of vinegar is the same as that for water, 1.00 g/mL at ambient temperature.

Post-Laboratory Questions 1. When performing this experiment, a student mistakenly used impure KHP to standardize the NaOH

solution. If the impurity is neither acidic nor basic, will the percent by mass of acetic acid in the vinegar solution determined by the student be too high or too low? Justify your answer with an explanation.

2. When preparing a NaOH solution, a student did not allow the NaOH pellets to completely dissolve before standardizing the solution with KHP. However, by the time the student refilled the buret with NaOH to titrate the acetic acid, the remaining NaOH pellets had completely dissolved. Will the molarity of acetic acid in the vinegar solution, determined by the student, be too high or too low? Justify your answer with an explanation.

3. Distilled water normally contains dissolved CO2. When preparing NaOH standard solutions, it is important to use CO2 free distilled water. How does dissolved CO2 in distilled water affect the accuracy of the determination of a NaOH solution’s concentration? (Hint: Use your textbook, the internet, etc. to research the term acid anhydride.)
