00:00:00.500 --> 00:00:03.975
Welcome to GCSE Edexcel Science revision.

00:00:04.125 --> 00:00:07.425
Unit S C 14: Quantitative analysis.

00:00:10.100 --> 00:00:17.906
(Higher tier) Concentration in moles per cubic decimetre equals amount in moles divided by volume in cubic decimetres.

00:00:18.056 --> 00:00:26.683
Convert cubic centimetres to cubic decimetres by dividing by 1000 before using concentration equals amount divided by volume;

00:00:26.833 --> 00:00:33.925
rearrange to amount equals concentration times volume or volume equals amount divided by concentration.

00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:45.751
(Higher tier) Concentration in grams per cubic decimetre equals concentration in moles per cubic decimetre times relative formula mass.

00:00:45.901 --> 00:00:51.447
Divide a mass concentration by the relative formula mass to obtain molar concentration.

00:00:54.100 --> 00:01:00.393
A titration finds the volume of one solution needed to react exactly with a measured volume of another.

00:01:00.543 --> 00:01:05.652
Use a balanced equation to establish the mole ratio, which is not always 1 to 1.

00:01:08.333 --> 00:01:16.876
For the core practical, use a pipette and filler to transfer a fixed volume of sodium hydroxide of unknown concentration into a conical flask.

00:01:17.026 --> 00:01:23.340
Add a few drops of a suitable indicator; hydrochloric acid of known concentration goes in the burette.

00:01:23.490 --> 00:01:27.695
Read the meniscus at eye level and swirl the flask near the endpoint.

00:01:32.367 --> 00:01:37.805
Rinse the burette with the solution it will contain, and rinse the pipette with the solution it will measure.

00:01:37.955 --> 00:01:46.059
Rinse the conical flask with distilled water; extra water there changes dilution but not the moles of alkali already pipetted.

00:01:48.733 --> 00:01:51.473
Fill the burette tip and remove air bubbles.

00:01:51.623 --> 00:01:54.033
Remove the filling funnel before measuring.

00:01:54.183 --> 00:02:02.897
Read the bottom of a colourless meniscus at eye level and record initial and final readings; titre equals final reading minus initial reading.

00:02:05.567 --> 00:02:11.444
Place the flask on a white tile, swirl as acid is added and add acid dropwise near the endpoint.

00:02:11.594 --> 00:02:21.031
The endpoint is the indicator’s lasting colour change; methyl orange or phenolphthalein can be suitable, but universal indicator gives too gradual a change.

00:02:23.700 --> 00:02:31.802
Do a rough titration, then repeat accurately to obtain close, concordant titres using the tolerance specified by the teacher or question.

00:02:31.952 --> 00:02:36.635
Calculate a mean from the concordant accurate results, excluding the rough trial.

00:02:39.300 --> 00:02:43.609
(Higher tier) Find moles of the known solution with concentration times volume,

00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:47.173
use the equation ratio to find moles of the unknown,

00:02:47.323 --> 00:02:51.583
then divide by the unknown solution’s volume in cubic decimetres.

00:02:51.733 --> 00:02:55.609
Carry units through each step and round only the final answer.

00:02:58.267 --> 00:03:02.353
Wear eye protection and use a pipette filler, never mouth pipetting.

00:03:02.503 --> 00:03:07.698
Handle acid and alkali according to the risk assessment; wash spills as instructed.

00:03:10.367 --> 00:03:16.435
Theoretical yield is the maximum product predicted from the balanced equation and limiting reactant.

00:03:16.585 --> 00:03:24.658
Actual yield is what is collected experimentally; percentage yield equals actual yield divided by theoretical yield times 100.

00:03:27.333 --> 00:03:34.447
Yield can be reduced by incomplete reaction, unwanted side reactions and losses during separation or transfer.

00:03:34.597 --> 00:03:42.979
A measured yield above 100 percent suggests wet or impure product or measurement and calculation error, not creation of extra atoms.

00:03:45.633 --> 00:03:51.061
Atom economy is the percentage of the reaction’s product mass that is the desired product.

00:03:51.211 --> 00:03:58.559
Calculate it as: total M R of desired products divided by total M R of all products times 100.

00:03:58.709 --> 00:04:03.143
Multiply each M R by its number in the balanced equation before adding.

00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:13.275
Because mass is conserved, the denominator can also be the total relative formula mass of the reactants with their coefficients.

00:04:13.425 --> 00:04:20.399
Atom economy describes the reaction equation, while yield describes practical success; they are different quantities.

00:04:20.549 --> 00:04:24.437
Include balanced-equation coefficients in atom-economy totals.

00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:36.939
An addition reaction with a single product can have 100 percent atom economy even if its experimental yield is low.

00:04:37.089 --> 00:04:43.337
A reaction giving several products can have high yield but low atom economy for the chosen product.

00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.709
(Higher tier) When choosing how to make a product,

00:04:48.859 --> 00:04:50.694
compare atom economy,

00:04:50.844 --> 00:04:52.067
yield,

00:04:52.217 --> 00:04:53.393
rate,

00:04:53.543 --> 00:04:55.271
equilibrium position,

00:04:55.421 --> 00:04:56.680
energy use,

00:04:56.830 --> 00:05:01.746
raw-material costs and the usefulness or hazards of the other products (by-products).

00:05:01.896 --> 00:05:06.674
Lower atom economy may be acceptable if those other products can also be used.

00:05:09.333 --> 00:05:18.739
(Higher tier) At room temperature and pressure, one mole of gas occupies about 24 cubic decimetres for GCSE calculations when specified.

00:05:18.889 --> 00:05:26.984
Use V equals n times molar volume with matching volume units; detailed gas-reaction calculations continue in S C 15.

00:05:29.667 --> 00:05:32.077
That completes Quantitative analysis.

00:05:32.227 --> 00:05:35.573
