You are provided with:
i) Solution A which is 2.0M hydrochloric Acid (HCl)
ii) Solution B, which is 0.1 M sodium thiosulphate (Na2S2O3)
iii) Solution C which is alkali of 0.1 M concentration
You are required to:
i) Find the effect of change of temperature on the rate of reaction between sodium thiosulphate, solution B, and hydrochloric Acid, solution A.
ii) Prepare a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid, solution A
iii) Write an ionic equation for the reaction between hydrochloric acid, solution A, and the alkali solution C.
Procedure I
Using a measuring cylinder measure 10 cm3 of solution B into a clean 100cm3 glass beaker. Place it together with its contents on a white piece of paper marked with a cross (X) on it with bold blue print. Measure the temperature of the solution and record it as shown in the table below.
Using a clean measuring cylinder, measure 5cm3 of solution A. add it to the contents of the beaker containing solution B and immediately start the stop watch. Record the time it will take for the cross (X) to become invisible when viewed above the reaction mixture in the beaker.
Wash the glass beaker used and repeat the experiment at the temperature indicated in the table below by warming sodium thiosulphate solution B to the stated temperature before adding hydrochloric Acid, solution A.

Procedure II
Using a clean measuring cylinder, place 12.5 cm3 of solution A in a 250ml volumetric flask. Add 200 cm3 of distilled water and shake. Add distilled water upto the mark. Label this solution D. Fill a burette with solution D. Using a pipette and pipette filler, place 25.0 cm3 of solution C into a 250 ml conical flask. Add two drops of phenolphthalein indicator and titrate with solution D until the pink colour disappears.
Record your results in table II. Repeat the titration two more times and complete the table.
