PURPOSE OF INVESTIGATION: to determine the
percent purity of a sample of citric acid available for sale by carrying out a
titration with sodium hydroxide

WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING:

Write a background that provides a scientific context
for this investigation
Design a method for making a 250 mL solution of 1.00 g
citric acid, and titrating it with a 0.100 mol/L solution of NaOH in
order to accurately determine the percentage purity of the citric acid
sample.
Carry out the titration and record data accurately in a
table of your own design.
Perform all relevant calculations to work out % purity
of the citric acid
Evaluate your data – how reliable is it? How accurate?
What are the sources of error? How could the method be improved?
