All answers must be typed in black ink. Increase the space between questions to insert
your answers. The grading rubric is provided separately.
Prelab Question:
1. What does hygroscopic mean?
Hygroscopic is when a reagent readily picks up water from the atmosphere
3. Calculate the molecular weight (using the atomic weights of the individual atoms
on the front cover of your textbook) of NaOH and KHP. Show your work with
handwritten answers in notebook for pre-lab check; when you do report, then use
the equation tools provided under Insert: Equation in Word to show the work.
NaOH → Na=22.99 g /mol+O=16.00 g /mol+ H=1.008 g /mol
NaOH =40.00 g/mol
KHP → K=39.10 g/mol+ H=1.008 g/mol+ P=30.97 g/mol KHP=71.08 g /mol
5. Read the Safety Data Sheet for Solid Sodium Hydroxide. Describe the safety
precautions you will follow while in the lab using 25 to 50 words. Attach the
Safety Data Sheet of Solid Sodium Hydroxide to your Lab 3 report.
Be wary that the sodium hydroxide can cause severe skin burns and eye
damage, and additional it can cause respiratory irritation. Know the needed
procedures in case the substances is in contact with the eyes or skin ,ingested,
or inhaled.

2. Provide one sample calculation of the molarity of NaOH (use equation tools
under Insert: Equation in Word):
1 mol
0.6967 g × =0.003411 mol

molarity ( M )= → =0.09512 M
vol(L) 0.03587 L
3. Use your calculator or Excel to find the average molarity of the NaOH solution
and give the answer here:
The average V of samples 2 to 4 is 0.09614 g/mol.
4. Use your calculator or Excel to find the standard deviation of the molarity of the
NaOH solution and give the answer here:
The standard deviation for the C of samples 2 to 4 is 0.0007594 g/mol.
5. Using the correct number of significant figures, report the molarity and standard
deviation of the NaOH solution and give the answer here:
Molarity: 0.09614 g/mol
Standard deviation: 0.0007594 g/mol

6. Provide one sample calculation of the % w/w of KHP in the unknown (use
equation tools under Insert: Equation in Word):
7. Use your calculator or Excel to find the average %w/w of the KHP in the
unknown and give the answer here:
8. Use your calculator or Excel to find the standard deviation of the %w/w of the
KHP in the unknown and give the answer here:
9. Using the correct number of significant figures, report the %w/w and standard
deviation of KHP in the unknown and give the answer here:
2. What happened to the flask when you dissolved the NaOH in the beaker?
When we dissolved the NaOH into the beaker, the temperature of the flask rose
a little bit.

5. Were any samples not included in the calculation for molarity and if yes, why?
We chose not to include sample 1 in the calculation for molarity since it was
overly titrated. The solution was a hot pink instead of a pale pink, meaning that
we added to much titrant and passed the end point.
6. Were any samples not included in the calculation for %w/w and if yes, why?
No unknown was available to perform this part of the lab.
7. Explain the chemistry occurring during the titration and at the endpoint. This
should be in paragraph form and contain 50 – 70 words.
For an acid-base reaction, when enough of the titrant is added into the analyte,
neutralization occurs when the concentrations of the titrant and analyte are the
same. The end point is the volume of titrant added to the analyte that is near the
equivalence point at which an abrupt change in the physical property is
observed. An indicator is often used to observe the change in the physical
property.

SDS Summary
- Hazards:
Can cause severe skin burns and eye damage and can cause respiratory irritation.
First Aid:
In case of eye contact, rinse with water for at least fifteen minutes. Seek medical attention if
irritation persists. In case of skin contact, remove all affected clothing and wash skin for at least
fifteen minutes. Seek a physician immediately. If ingested, do not induce vomiting. Drink plenty of
water. Seek medical attention. If inhaled, move to an area with fresh air and give artificial oxygen if
needed. Get medical attention if symptoms are present. Give artificial respiration if not breathing
with the aid of a pocket mask with a one-way valve. Seek medical help immediately.
- Fire Hazards:
The substance is not combustible. Use an agent that is most appropriate to extinguish the
surrounding fire. Do not use solid water stream as extinguishing media.
2. Handling/storage information
- Storage and Disposal: Store tightly closed container in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated area. Keep
away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents, acids, metals, and water. Dispose
of product into appropriate waste container after use.
