- You are provided with:-
4.5g of solid A in a boiling tube.
Solution B, 0.06 acidified Potassium manganate (VII)
You are require to determine
(1) The solubility of sold A at different temperatures
(2) The number of moles of water of crystallization in solid A.
Procedure- Using a burette, add 4cm3 of distilled water to solid A in the boiling tube. Heat the mixture while stirring with the thermometer to about 70oC. When the entire solid has dissolved, allow the solution to cool while stirring with the thermometer. Note the temperature at which crystals of solid A first appear. Record this temperature in table 1.
- Using the burette, add 2cm3 of distilled water to the contents of the boiling tube. Warm the mixture while stirring with the thermometer until all the solid dissolves. Allow the mixture to cool while stirring. Note and record the temperature at which crystals of solid A first appear.
- Repeat procedure(b) two more times and record the temperatures in table I. Retain the contents of the boiling tube for use in procedure (e)
- Complete table 1 by calculating the solubility of solid A at the different temperatures. The solubility of a substance is the mass of the substance that dissolves in 100cm3 (100g) of water at a particular temperature. (6 marks)

- Using your graph, determine the temperature at which 100g of solid A would dissolve in 100cm3 of water. (1 mark)
- Complete table 1 by calculating the solubility of solid A at the different temperatures. The solubility of a substance is the mass of the substance that dissolves in 100cm3 (100g) of water at a particular temperature. (6 marks)
- Transfer the contents of the boiling tube into a 250ml volumetric flask. Rinse both the boiling tube and the thermometer with distilled water and add to the volumetric flask. Add more distilled water to make up to the mark. Label this solution A. Fill a burette with solution B. Using a pipette and a pipette filler, place 25.0cm3 of solution A into conical flasks. Warm the mixture to about 70oC. Titrate the hot solution A with solution B until a permanent pink colour persists. Record your readings in table 2. Repeat the titration two more times and complete table 2. (Retain the remaining solution B for use in question 3)
