Product Overview
This 0.05N hydrochloric acid solution is a precisely standardized analytical reagent designed for laboratory applications requiring accurate acid-base titrations. The solution is prepared using high-purity hydrochloric acid diluted to an exact 0.05 mol/L concentration, ensuring consistent and reliable results in quantitative analysis. The reagent-grade formulation minimizes impurities, making it suitable for sensitive analytical procedures where precision is critical. Packaged in high-density polyethylene bottles, the solution maintains stability and prevents contamination during storage. The ready-to-use format eliminates the need for manual dilution, saving time while ensuring reproducibility in experimental protocols. This HCl solution is particularly valued for its uniform concentration, which reduces variability in titration endpoints and improves the accuracy of volumetric analysis. The solution’s clarity and lack of particulate matter further enhance its suitability for spectrophotometric applications where optical transparency is required.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this 0.05N hydrochloric acid solution?
The solution remains stable for 12 months from the date of manufacture when stored in its original tightly sealed container at room temperature, protected from direct sunlight and moisture.
2. Can this solution be used for preparing lower concentrations of HCl?
Yes, this 0.05N solution can serve as a stock for preparing more dilute HCl solutions through serial dilution with deionized water, maintaining accuracy when proper volumetric techniques are followed.
3. What material are the bottles made of, and are they resistant to HCl?
The bottles are made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which offers excellent chemical resistance to hydrochloric acid and prevents leaching or degradation during storage.
4. How should I verify the concentration of this solution before use?
The concentration can be verified by titrating against a primary standard like sodium carbonate using a phenolphthalein indicator, following standard titration procedures for acid-base reactions.
5. Is this solution compatible with automatic titrators?
Yes, the solution’s consistent concentration and lack of particulate matter make it fully compatible with automatic titrators, provided the instrument is properly calibrated for 0.05N HCl.
