The experiment is repeated three times and the volume of hydrochloric acid used for each set is shown
in Table 1.

Table 1

(b) Record the burette readings in the spaces provided in Table 1.

[3 marks]

(c) Construct a table to record the data form set I, II and III. The table should include the initial

reading, final reading and the volume of hydrochloric acid used in the titration.

[3 marks]
(d) The chemical equation for the reaction is shown below:

HCl + NaOH NaCl + H2O

Calculate the average volume of hydrochloric acid, HCl needed to neutralize 50 cm3 of 1.0 mol
dm-3 sodium hydroxide, NaOH solution.

[3 marks]
(e) During the titration process, state the relationship between the concentration of hydroxide ion, OH - in
sodium hydroxide, NaOH solution with time until the end point of titration.

3.

There are many items around us such as tyres, mattress and gloves are
made from rubber. Natural rubber is obtained from the latex secreted
by rubber tree. Latex needs to be turned into a solid for it to be used in
daily purposes.

An acid is used to coagulate the latex while an alkali can prevent the coagulation of latex. Based on this
idea, plan one laboratory experiment to investigate the effect of acid and alkali on the coagulation of
latex.
Your planning should include the following aspects:
(a) Problem statement
(b) All the variables
(c) Statement of hypothesis
(d) List of materials and apparatus
(e) Procedure of the experiment
(f) Tabulation of data
