Question

Below are some of the steps completed in the titration process.

(i) Add base from the buret to the acid.
(ii) Transfer a known volume of acid to an Erlenmeyer flask.
(iii) Add three drops of chemical indicator to the acid.
(iv) Position the Erlenmeyer flask under the buret.

Which lists the steps in the correct order of occurrence? Thank you!!

Answer 1

The steps are as followed in occurrence: (II),(III),(IV),(I)

Answer 2

The given process is that of an acid-base titration where the base is taken in the burette and is being titrated against an acid taken in a flask. The steps in the correct order are:

1) Transfer a known volume of acid to an Erlenmeyer flask.

2) Add three drops of chemical indicator to the acid.

3) Position the Erlenmeyer flask under the buret.

4) Add base from the buret to the acid.

Ans: ii) , iii), iv) and i)
