Learning Objectives to understand the titration curves for the following solutions • a weak acid: acetic acid, CH3COOH. • • • • • a strong acid: hydrochloric acid, HCl. an acidic commercial cleanser. a basic commercial cleanser. to use the titration curves to calculate the percent of the active ingredients in the commercial cleansers. to determine the Ka of a weak acid. Procedure Overview • • • • after calibration of the pH electrode and determination of the flow rate for the automatic titration, a NaOH solution is standardized against HCl. a pH titration curve for acetic acid is obtained and its pKa is determined. an unknown sample of Lysol is analyzed for its HCl content using the standardized NaOH. an unknown sample of Liquid Plumr is analyzed for its NaOH and NaOCl content using HCl of known molarity.
