Aliquot
A portion that is taken from a diluted sample of primary standard is
aliquot.
Example:
0.4148 grams of pure CaCO3 (MW = 100,09) was diluted in HCl 1:1 until
500 mL in a volumetric flask. 50 mL of aliquot was taken with a pipette
and placed in an Erlenmeyer flask. This aliquot was then titrated with
40.34 mL of EDTA by using Black Eriochrome T indicator. Calculate the
molarity of EDTA!

Dilution (calculation)
Example:
A KMNO4 0.02 M solution was prepared by diluting an amount of salt
that has been measured in a 1 L volumetric flask. 25 mL of aliquot from
this solution was placed in a 500 mL volumetric flask and diluted with
water until its graduation marking. Calculate the molarity of this
solution!
Solution:
V1 * M 1 = V 2 * M 2
25 mL * 0.02 M = 500 mL * M2
M2 = 0.01 M

Calculation of Purity Percentage (cont’d)
Example 1:
2.1283 g of impure KHP (KHC8H4O4) sample will be equivalent
with 42.58 mL of a 0.1084 N base, indicated by
phenolphthalein. Calculate the percentage of KHP (Equivalent
Weight = 204.2) in that sample!
Solution:

Example 2:
0.6428 g of iron composite was dissolved in acid. The iron was
reduced to Fe3+ and titrated with 36.30 mL of 0.1052 N K2Cr2O7
solution.

Weight Factor
Weight Factor: a condition where the volume needed for titration (in mL) equals to the analyte
percentage.
Example 1:
How many weight of the sample should be taken for analysis so that the volume of 0.1074 N NaOH
solution will be equal to the percentage of KHP in the sample? Equivalent weight of KHP is 204.2
mg/mek.
