Product Overview
Oxalic Acid N/10 CVS is a precisely standardized volumetric solution designed for laboratory applications requiring high accuracy in titrations. This reagent is prepared from high-purity oxalic acid dihydrate and standardized against primary standards to ensure consistent normality (N/10), making it ideal for redox titrations and quantitative analysis. The solution is packaged in 6 sealed glass ampoules to prevent contamination and ensure long-term stability. Each ampoule contains a pre-measured volume, eliminating the need for dilution or preparation, which saves time and reduces potential errors in experimental procedures. The CVS grade ensures compliance with strict quality control measures, providing reliable and reproducible results in analytical chemistry. This solution is particularly useful in permanganometry, where oxalic acid serves as a primary standard for potassium permanganate standardization. The ampouled format guarantees freshness and minimizes exposure to atmospheric moisture or CO2, which could otherwise alter the concentration. Whether used in educational laboratories or research settings, this N/10 Oxalic Acid CVS solution delivers precision and convenience for critical analytical workflows.
FAQs
1. What is the exact concentration of this N/10 Oxalic Acid CVS solution?
The solution is standardized to 0.1N (1/10 normal) concentration, which equals 6.303 g/L of oxalic acid dihydrate, ensuring accurate titration results when used as directed.
2. Can this solution be used directly for permanganate titrations without further dilution?
Yes, this N/10 Oxalic Acid CVS solution is ready-to-use and does not require dilution for standard permanganate titrations, as it is pre-standardized to the correct normality.
3. How should the ampoules be opened to avoid contamination?
Use a clean ampoule opener or file to score the neck, then snap it open while holding the ampoule upright. Transfer the contents immediately to a clean, dry container to prevent exposure to air.
4. What is the shelf life of this Oxalic Acid CVS solution in unopened ampoules?
When stored in unopened ampoules at room temperature (15–25°C), the solution remains stable for up to 24 months from the date of manufacture.
5. Are there any precautions for handling this solution?
While oxalic acid is relatively safe, wear gloves and eye protection when handling. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors, and work in a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood.
