How do you standardize 1m NaOH solution?
Table of Contents
To prepare roughly 1 M NaOH solution, you must dissolve 20 g of NaOH in distilled water using 500 ml volumetric flask or 2 g of NaOH in distilled water using 50 ml volumetric flask. Then you must standardize it with a primary standard material like potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP).

How do you calculate the standardization of NaOH?
To Standardize: Record the amount of KHP and water used. Add 4 drops of indicator into the flask and titrate to the first permanent appearance of pink. Near the endpoint, add the NaOH dropwise to determine the total volume most accurately.

What is the standardization of NaOH?
A sodium hydroxide solution of approximate concentration (0.2 M) is to be prepared. It is then standardized by titrating it against an accurately weighed sample of potassium acid phthalate (KHP), HOOC-C6H4-COOK , which is a primary standard acidic substance.
What is the density of NaOH?

2.13 g/cm³Sodium hydroxide / Density
What is 1M NaOH?
1m of a given solution means that one mole of the substance per liter of solution. The one mole of the substance is the solute. Therefore, 1m of NaOH means, one mole of NaOH per liter of solution.
How do you standardize 1M HCl?
Hydrochloric Acid Solution Standardization Weigh accurately about 1.5 g of anhydrous sodium carbonate, previously heated at about 270°C for 1 hour. Dissolve it in 100 ml of water and add 0.1 ml of methyl red solution. Add the acid slowly from a burette, with constant stirring, until the solution becomes faintly pink.

Why must the NaOH be standardized?
NaOH is hygroscopic, so it is not possible to weigh it accurately. KHP is hygroscopic, so it is not possible to weigh it accurately. NaOH is a primary standard, so a solution of it needs to be standardized. NaOH is hygroscopic, so it is not possible to weigh it accurately.
How do you calculate standardization?
Use the formula to standardize the data point 6:
- Subtract the mean (6 – 4 = 2),
- Divide by the standard deviation. Your standardized value (z-score) will be: 2 / 1.2 = 1.7.
Why do we need to standardize the NaOH solution?
The reason we must standardize strong base solutions is because substances like NaOH will naturally absorb moisture from the air and react with gases in the air, such as CO2, to produce unwanted impurities in the stock sample of the base.
