WAEC 2026 Chemistry Practical Titration EXPO 🔥 H₂SO₄ vs NaOH (PART A)| A1 GuaranteedAdded:
to all student preparing to write Y 2026 chemistry practical. So this is a preparatory video for you and to teachers to who want to prepare their students ahead of chemistry practical exam for Y6. So this is also a video for you to watch to the end. Now this video is going to be a titration aspect alone and this video is going to explain the alternative rule of how you can get your VA that is the volume of acid use without even doing the practical experiment at all without even titrating at all. So this is like a a worksheet like how you can do a theoretical work of how you can get your volume of acid used that is the video en sure you watch this video to the end. Now according to the specimen released by YC this is the this is the things needed the acid the volume of the acid per dmq and also the gram of sodium hydroxide per dm solution according to the person by white now note one thing this channel is does not support examination mal practice so this channel does not leak exam question so if you have the mindset or if you have intention that you're coming to this channel probably you want to watch this video for the purpose for examination m practice. Please do well to swipe up.
Don't bother to watch this video. If you have intention for examination m practice, this channel is not for you.
Please go ahead and find wherever you want to get a video from. So this particular video is for students who want to learn, who want to study ahead, for students who want to be prepared for an upcoming exam. This is a preparatory class. As I've said earlier, it is not an expo video. It's not an expo class and not it is also not an expo channel is corruption and it is totally forbidden and mind you if you have your result and is not by your power is not by your strength is not by your ability and you have his let's say you have a par mind you the blessing of God might not or even not even might will not be in that result the meaning of blessing from God so you have to sweat to get something you have to sweat to achieve something better. So coming to this channel is for you to prepare ahead is for you to learn and for you to study not for examination practice. Now let's go into the video. Now in this titration aspect like I said earlier we will be working out how to get your volume of acid used without even doing the titration. Do well to share this video to all other students you have in your class. Share it to your class group.
Share it to your WhatsApp group so that other students can learn. Well, I'm making this video so that this video will get across to the over 1.6 million candidate register every year. But at least if it does not get up to 1.6 million candidate, please let it get to half of it. That is 800,000 candidates.
If it gets 800 800,000 candidates at least it will be beneficial to them and even teachers as well. So now working on this now what do we need now from the specimen in the acid a we have the 5.6 cm per dm solution and the base we have this 4.0 g per dm solution. Now what do we need to do in calculating this?
There's a formula you need to you need to know which is what formula is c a va all over cb v which is equals to n a all n. Yes, majority of students are familiar with this formula very well.
Now, what do we do? Our main aim is to look for the volume of acid used, right?
That's the end point. That's the titration end point. But we are not doing titration. We are doing it theoretically. Like we are doing it using theory, not the practical aspect.
Good. So then what do we do next? Let's make um VA the subject of formula.
That's going to be our VA, which is going to be CB VB N A then all over C A C A N B sorry that's NB C A N B. So by the time you collect like 10 by time you make VA sub formula then you have the CB VB NA all over CA NB. Now what do we do? Let us look for those parameters.
one after the other. Now from here let's write the equation of the reaction. We have the H2SO4 here which is the sulfuric acid and and it is also a strong acid and we have the NaOH which is a what a base known as costic soda and it is also a strong base. So this so this 26 Y practical is a titration between a strong acid and a strong base and mind you if you're titrating strong acid and strong base you can use any suitable indicator you wish to use you can use any suitable indicator you wish to use all right so now let's do the let's write the question of the reaction we have it as H2SO4 which will be in a state aq so it is reacting with sodium hydroxide that is the NaOH.
So that one will be in a form. So that is going to give us N A2 SO4 that is sodium sulfate also in a state plus water that is H2O. Let me put liquid X.
So after writing this equation of the reaction then let's balance the reaction. So okay hydrogen is two here is also here. Sulf is one here is one here. Oxygen is how many? Five here. It is also five here. For sodium is one here is two here. So let me balance here with two balance between sodium becomes two here. You have two here. Oxygen is now hydrogen is now four. Let me let me just put two here. So I think it's balanced now. You have hydrogen is four here is also four here. Sulf is one. One sodium is two is two. Hydro oxygen is um sorry oxygen is six here is six here as well. And hydrogen too everything is balanced. So from here you can actually have it as our NA that is the number of acid is going to be one you understand based on the mole of the acid we have here and then our NB that's the base and that is going to be two. So we already get that. Now what do we need to get next? We actually need to get our we have gotten our NB. We need our CB, VB and CA. So from our VB based on destruction, you know your volume of pipet. Yeah, it can either be 25.00 cm cq or 20.00 cm cube or basically most school usually use 25.00 cm cube. So let me come over here to use 25.00 00 CN Q as our volume of base that mean the volume of the sodium hydroxide we are going to pipet all right to run the titration good so what are we left with the next thing left is to look for the concentration of B and also the concentration of A looking for our CB that is unknown and also we looking for our CA that is unknown so these are the two sorry CA so these are the two things we are now looking for now now let me start with the CB first for we to get our CB that is concentration of sodium hydroxide in mole per dmq that's the meaning of um CB okay now let me there's a formula to calculate concentration of mole per dmq of mole per dq and the formula is concentration of b is the base per dm per dm so that is equals = to concentration of B gipar mass of B or you call it formula mass formula mass of B. Okay. So I'm looking for the BN.
So this is basically B in gnip mass all over mass mass should be like this. Sorry about that. So let me cancel this.
So all mass. All right. So again we have the B in that is equals to B in G per DM all over M. Good. So what is the concentration of B in G per DM? Now look at it here. You can see this this is the concentration of B in g. This is the g 4.0 per dm. This is just going to be 4.0 0 g per dm cq solution. So I just come over here and to write 4.0 g per dm cube. So all over what's the mar mass of sodium hydroxide or for mass of sodium hydroxide. So that's going to be that's going to be sodium is 23 plus oxygen is 16 then hydrogen is 1. So this is going to be g per mole. So by the time we do this, this is going to be 4.0 g by dm all over this going to be 40 g.
So if g cancel then we are left with let me just do the calculator that's going to be um 4.0 0 / 40 and that's giving us 0.1 as you can see that's 0.1 mole per dmq. All right.
So let me put that here. So definitely our CD is going to be 0.1 mole dmq and that is the concentration of our beads. Then the next thing to now look for you can see that these are the parameters we want to get. We want to get our NA. We want to get our NB, our VB, our C A and our CB. But thank God we have been able to get But thank God we have been able to get our N A N B VB and then CB it remains CA. Now how do we get CA? To get CA there is a there's a special formula to get CA.
Now the special formula is going to be 10 * specific gravity specific gravity multiply by percentage purity all over the molar mass of the acid.
Now look at this formula. This formula is for us to get the concentration of the acid in DNQ. But it's going to be the con form. You know when you want to dilute an acid like you have to dilute it from a con form from a concentrated form to a diluted form. So we need to calculate the concentration of the acid of H2SO4 in the concentrated form first. So before we now calculate it in the diluted form you know that student cannot use this acid inuted form. It is the picture that we need to dilute it to make it I mean with water with probably distilled water in order to reduce the concentration so that it not be harmful to their skin or whatsoever. So what we are trying to do now we are trying to calculate the concentration of the acid in the concentrated form not in diluted form. After you have gotten this then we will now reverse it to diluted form. You understand? Because you have to use this acid in diluted form. You are not use in the concentrated form. Okay. So for you to calculate this concentration of a which is the inn of the concentrated form. The formula required is 10 * specific gravity time percent purity divided by the mar mass of the acid. So from the specimen it is also given that all schools should use same specific gravity and same percentage purity meaning that this year VA right like which which is the end point it seems that all schools should get something similar like all answers should be closed across the whole Nigeria. So because of the because of why has specified that all of you should use the same specific gravity and you should use the same percentage purity meaning that the acid a school use must have equal percentage purity and specific gravity.
So from the Y specimen it was stated there that the specific gravity that should be used should be 1.84 1.84 84 and the percentage purity for H2S04 is 98%.
98% according to the instruction. So divided by the mar mass of H2SO4. So the mar mass of HSO4 that's going to be 19.
But let's try to work it. That's 1 * 2 plus sulfur is 32 + 16 * 4. So now let's do the mathematics. That is the CA. So using the calculator now then we have it as um let's use the calculator we have 10 * 1.84 * 98 so that's giving us 1,00 83.2 2 divided by that's 98. Okay, 98.
So 1,00 that means the answer divided by 98.
So that's giving us 18.4 as you can see it here that is 18.4.
So we have our CA which is equals to 18.4.
So that's going to be in um M per dm cq.
Okay, you can see that for this to be 18.4 that means it is very very very concentrated. So this is the concentrated form 18.4.
Yeah. So after that then we now need to get the diluted form like the diluted form of our CA. So for we to get the diluted form of our CA there is a formula which I believe that most students should be familiar with. We call the dilution factor formula. So the formula is C1 V1 is equals to C2 V2. Now looking at this formula C1 means initial concentration V1 means initial volume.
Then C2 means final concentration and then V2 means final volume. So our main aim is the final concentration. You understand? The final concentration means after after after diluted like after you have diluted it with water distilled water then what is now going to be the final concentration and that's going to be the C2. So I'll be stopping this video here. Yeah. So that so as not to make this video to be too long. So if you need the continuation of this video, go to the comment section and request for the part two. Just request for the part two or probably you say you want the part B or you probably say you want the continuation of this video. Now um let me use opportunity to tell you that I'll be hosting a master class for this chemistry practical for white seed on Zoom channel. The price is just 1,000 naira to participate. So payment starts right away. If you're interested, please send a DM to the WhatsApp number here.
Look at the WhatsApp number here, which is 091 55 1028.
Or probably you take this thing on this one to WhatsApp 086843 5809.
So we are holding a master class for 2026 chemistry practical. Yes, message me on WhatsApp now so that I can add you to the class. It is a 1,000 NRA. So if you want to make your payment, if you want to join, then you pay to this account number. This is 8068435809.
So remove the 40. You are paying to OP.
That is the OP account. You are paying to the OP account. And once you make your payment, send your receipt to the to any of the WhatsApp number. Write write it under the caption that you paid for Y26 chemistry practical master class. Now what are the benefits you are going to get from the master class is that I will be exposing the a powerful predicted questions that W might ask you based on this 2026 um practical class rather. So I'll be revealing and I'll be showing you the possible things that W might ask you.
We're going to solve it together. Not only that, I'll be telling you do and don't in why chemistry practical like what actually makes students who fail from some students we understand the concept behind this why chemistry practical but but despite the fact that that they know it they will still end up failing it there are some techniques that you need to understand there are some ways they mark based on the marking guide so I'll be revealing all these things to you on zoom and also we'll be talking around across the salt analysis as Well, what you are to know the possible questions that might come out in the salt analysis and everything pertaining to the salt analysis and even the titration as well and the dos and don'ts. The thing you should be cautioned about these are the things you'll be revealing in our master class.
The class is a zoom class as I've said earlier and mind zoom can only occupy 100 participants.
Zoom can only occupy 100 participants.
So once it is 100 once 100 student make payment then mind you we are no longer accepting payment any longer. Now the date for the class it will be announced soon but probably it's going to be 2 days to Y chemistry practical or a day to Y chemistry practical. So once you watch this video make your payment then come and join the group. The group will be a waiting list. Once you make a payment I will add you to the group of the master class. Then once it is a day or two days you're going to start the class will start by 5:00 p.m. in the evening and it can run for 3 hours and finish by 8 and you're going to learn.
So this Y chemistry practical and never forget that in marking scheme Y chemistry practical carries 50% which is 50 mark whereby the objective and the theory carries 50 mark as well. So if you can hit at least 45 over 50 in the chemistry practical then you have nothing to worry about objective and theory. See you in class. Bye.
