Purposes and Demands 1. To determine the ionization constant of acetic acid. 2. To determine the solubility of calcium sulphate. 3. Master the operation of conductivity detector.

Principle 1 ） Determination of weak electrolyte ionization constant. At certain temperature, the equilibrium of acetic acid ionization in water can be written as follow HAc = H + + Ac － Initial c 0 0 eg c(1-α) cα cα

So, ionization constant could be expressed as:

Ionization degree α in formula ① is related with molar conductivity. That is: Λ—— molar conductivity when concentration is c Λ 0 —— ultimate molar conductivity if solution is diluted illimitably Λ 0 = L + + L – （ the sum of positive and negative ion molar conductivity) can be lookup on literatures.

K —— conductivity (s/cm or ms/cm orμs/cm). It can be determined through experiment. C —— concentration (mol L -1 or N L － 1 )

Adding equation. ② into. ①, we obtain that  ④ Draw a graph of cΛm against 1/Λ and get a beeline of which slope is: slope = Λ 0 2 × Kc Look for Λ 0 on literatures, and account out Kc. 实验原理

2 ） Determination of hardly dissolved salt ’ s solubility Kc = K solution – K H2O K solution —— conductivity of solution K H2O —— conductivity of water

Apparatus and Reagent Conductivity detector 1 Super thermostatic trough 1 Conical flask （ 250ml ） 2 Conical flask （ 50ml ） 3 Pipette (20ml) 2 Beaker (100ml) M HAc solution CaSO 4 (A.R)

Procedure 1 ） Determination of weak electrolyte ionization constant 1. Regulate the temperature of thermostatic trough at 25 ℃ ±0.1 ℃. Put two conical flasks one of which is filled with ml conductive water and another with 40ml HAc(0.1M) into thermostatic trough, and maintain the temperature at this level for 20 min.

2. Clean a platinum black electrode with distilled water and blotted it up by the use of filter paper (don ’ t touch platinum -black). Put the electrode into the conical flask filled with 40ml HAc and detect the conductivity.

Remove l of HAc solution and complement with 20ml conductive water that has been kept temperature constant, shaking up. After temperature is kept constant for 5 min, determine the conductivity of the solution above.

Repeat the same dilution procedure to confect other five HAc solution of different concentration showed in the table below. Determine six conductivities of these solutions and complete the table.

2 ） Determination of hardy dissolved salt ’ s solubility 1. Weigh 1g CaSO 4 solid, put it into 100ml beaker and dissolve with distilled water. Heat the solid-liquid mixture up to boiling point.

Drop off superstratum liquid. Repeat the same procedure twice and think about the meaning of this operation.

2. Dissolve the solid adequately with 80ml distilled water and heat it up to boiling point. Cool the liquid down to room temperature, collect clear topper liquid and take it to thermostatic trough.

Fill the beaker with 40ml distilled water. Repeat the above procedure twice. When the temperature keeps constant, measure the conductivity of these three saturated CaSO4 solutions.

3. Get 40ml of conductive water which has been kept temperature constant and measure its conductivity. Figure out the conductivity of CaSO 4 by the formula we have learned.

Draw a graph of cΛm against 1/Λ and calculate its slope. And as we know: +Λ 0 – （ literatures ）＝ ＋ 40.9 ＝ 390.7(Ω-1cm-1mol-1) Then, Kc would be figure out, that is Kc =

Questions 1. Why should we use the thermostatic trough in the experiment? 2. Why can ’ t we determine conductivity of solution with direct current? 3. Why do we have to wash CaSO 4 solid and use superstratum liquid for determination in the preparation process of CaSO4 saturated solution?

Attentions 1. Conductance electrode must be below liquid-level. 2. Determination must be operated in constant temperature. 3. Conductivity detector must be proofread before each determination.

Outline in the use of DDS-11A conductivity detector 1. Switch on the electrical source and allow it warm-up for several min (until pointer turns stable). 2. Turn the constant knob to be electrode constant (it ’ s been checked and determined by the factory).

3. E mendation. Determine conductivity of H 2 O on low round and HAc is on high round. Turn the knob, driving the pointer point to full scale namely ↗ 1.0.

4. Determination. Choose proper measuring range from large range to small one and try to control the pointer pointing to the full scale in order to get accurate data. That just is: 104→103→102 …… 10 …… 1 …… 0.1

5. Reading and record. The data marker is in the form of ×10x×10-6(s/cm). X stands for 4, 3 or 2 and 1 in the measuring range.
