2 ¤ Jurong Pioneer Junior College 9729/04/J2 PRELIMINARY EXAM/2021 Answer all the questions in the spaces provided. 1 Determination of the solubility product of calcium iodate Calcium iodate, Ca(IO3)2, is a sparingly soluble salt and can dissociate in water according to the following equation. equation 1 Ca(IO3)2(s) ⇌ Ca2+(aq) + 2IO3(aq) In this experiment you will determine the solubility product of calcium iodate, Ca(IO3)2. A saturated solution of calcium iodate was prepared, the concentration of iodate ions, IO3, in this saturated solution can be determined by reacting IO3 ions with an excess of I ions to form iodine, I2. equation 2 IO3– + 5I– + 6H+ → 3I2 + 3H2O The amount of iodine formed may be titrated against a standard solution of Na2S2O3 as shown in equation 3. equation 3 I2 + 2S2O32– → 2I – + S4O62– FA 1 is a filtered saturated solution of calcium iodate, Ca(IO3)2. FA 2 is an aqueous strong acid FA 3 is 0.500 mol dm3 potassium iodide, KI. FA 4 is 0.150 mol dm3 sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3. (a) (i) Titration of FA 1 against FA 4 1. Fill the burette with FA 4. 2. Use a pipette to transfer 25.0 cm3 of FA 1 into a 250 cm3 conical flask. 3. Use a measuring cylinder to add 25 cm3 of FA 2 to the conical flask. 4. Use another measuring cylinder to add 10 cm3 of FA 3 to the conical flask. The solution will turn brown as iodine is produced. 5. Run FA 4 from the burette into this flask. Near the end-point, when the yellow solution becomes pale, add about 1 cm3 of starch indicator. 6.
