    Introduction

    Name of the experiment (6): Standardization of


    sodium thiosulphate (Na2S2O3) solution with a
    standard potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7)
    solution by Iodometric titrartion

    Theory : The objective of this experiment is to


    determine the strength of Na2S2O3 , which is very
    important industrial raw material . Na2S2O3
    solituon is standardized against K2Cr2O7 in
    presence of HCl.First, K2Cr2O7 oxidizes the
    iodide ion in acidic medium to equivalejnt
    amount of iodine. Then, the iodine mformed in
    the reaction oxizides Na2S2O3 giving sodium
    tetrahionate ion and the end point is detected
    by search solution . Here the quantity of the
    iodine is equivalent in quantity to the oxidant
    being determined.
    Preparation of Standard potassium dichromate
    (K2Cr2O7) solution:
    Weigh out 0.47 g (K2Cr2O7) in a 100 mL volumetric flask.
    Add a small amount of distilled water and shake well to
    dissolve the solute. Make the solution up to the mark.
    Working Procedure:
    1. Take the supplied Na2S2O3 solution in the burette and
    note the initial reading.
    2. Add 10 ml of solution into the conical flask and mix the
    solution well.
    3. Add 1 kg of and shake to dissolve the salt.
    4. Add 3 mL of Conc. HCl slowly while gently rotating the
    flask to mix the liquid.
    5. Add 4 mL of 10% KI solution in to conical flask.
    6. Cover the flask immediately with a watch glass and
    allow the solution to stand for about 5 min in the dark
    (inside the desk, and color of the solution will be dark
    brown).
    7. Take out the solution from the dark and dilute it by
    adding 50 mL of distilled water.
    8. Titrate the liberated iodine with the (Na2S2O3 ) from
    the burette until the color fades to turn pale yellow.
    9. Now add 10 drops of starch solution to it and the color
    of the solution changes to deep violet
    10. Continue the addition of (Na2S2O3 ) from the burette
    until the color turns to light green or light blue.
    11. Note the burette reading and this is the end point.
    Repeat the steps 2 to 12 two more times and take the
    average of (Na2S2O3) the volume of the solution.

    Titration of Sodium thiosulphate with K2Cr2O7 Solution :


    Reactions:

    1) K2Cr2O7 (aq) + 14HCl(aq) + 6KI(aq) = 2CrCl3 (aq) + 3I2


    (g) + 8KCl(aq) + 7H2O (reaction in dark place)
    I2+ I- ----- I3 (Tri-iodide)
    2) 6 Na2S2O3 (aq) + 3I2 (g) = 6 NaI(aq) + 3 Na2S4O6
    (during titration)
    (Starch + I3 ----- Starch-I3)
    1 mole K2Cr2O7 = 3 mole I2 = 6 mole Na2S2O3
    1 mole K2Cr2O7 = 6 mole Na2S2O3

    2 26 36.8 10.8
    Calculation:
    Calculate the molarity of Na2S2O3 solution from the following
    formula:
    MNa2S2O3 = 6 xMk2Cr2O7 VK2Cr2O7/ VNa2S2O7= 6 X 0.01x 10/ 10.65
    X

    = 0.056

    Error Analysis :
    Error = |0.06-0.056 / 0.06| x100
    = 0.67%

    Learnings
    • Identify the start and end points of the reaction.
    • Monitoring the burette reading.
    • Titrate the liberate iodine by observing a visual color
    change.

    Conclution
    This is how we can calculate the volumn of Na2S2O7. We have to
    be very careful while we take the burutte reading. The flask
    should cover immediately and the calculation should be done
    very carefully.
