pH water.

To know the pH of different water samples we use the "cresol red" , it's a simple experiment : we pour different water for example sea water, soapy water, hepar water, acetic acid, tap water, distilles water.

Procedure:

- We have to remove around 5mL of a water sample to a test tube
- Add some drop of cresol red in the test tubes and compare with the pH color indicator.
- Do the same experiment with the thymol blue.

 PROCEDURE

 

Pour 5mL of distilled water into each of the empty test tubes ( 2 ).
Add 5g of epsom salts ( magnesium sulfate ) to one of the test tubes.
Stopper or cap and shake the test tube until the epsom salts dissolve.
Add a drop of liquid dish detergent to both test tubes.
Seal the test tubes with their caps or stoppers.
Shake both test tubes

Hard Water

Today, we're going to test the hardness of water.
We need some reagents:




We carry out titration:

 
 eriochrome turned from pink to blue:



 

With tap water, we need 1 mL of EDTA
With Hepar water, we need 19 mL of EDTA.
With sea water, we need 75 mL of EDTA

So:
sea water is very very hard!
tap water is not that hard.

How to measure a pH solution ?

How to measure a pH solution ?


There are many ways to measure pH :

with a color indicator :  
thymol blue and cresol red :

 with a pH paper :


with the pH meter :

the most precise way to measure pH solution is the pH meter because it measures more precisely than other ways.

Today, we're going to test the hardness of water.
We need some reagents:



We carry out dosage experiment:
 
 eriochrome turned from pink to blue:



 
 
With tap water, we need 1 mL of EDTA
With Hepar water, we need 19 mL of EDTA.
With sea water, we need 75 mL of EDTA

So:
