CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

Iron is one of the contaminants that gives a significant reddish brown color to the water

sources. In this experiment, the researchers tested the iron content of their water samples. From

the data obtained, the researchers can see that the iron content of the different water samples is

ranging from 0-400 mg/L. Therefore, the researchers can conclude that almost all of the water

samples contain large content of iron. From the experiment conducted, a little amount of the

titrant used causes a change in the color of the water sample turning it to light pink. This

confirms that the water sample contain a large content of iron.

From the data obtained, the researchers can recommend that for the next experiments,

they should carefully distinguish the light pink coloration for them to have a more accurate data.

The researchers also recommend that for the next experiments, the water samples can be freshly

acquired from the sampling points for more accurate data.

List and Uses of Apparatus

1. Burette a long cylindrical tube used for titration. There are two types f burette: acid and base

burette.

2. Erlenmeyer Flask a triangular shape flask used for storage. In this experiment, it is where the

titrate is placed.

3. Wash bottle contain deionized water. used for washing the apparatus before they are used to

minimize contamination.

4. Pipette with rubber Pipetol used to measure the amount of the reagents used in the

experiment.
