Avoidcontact with the solid and its solution. Should this chemicalcontact the person, immediately flush the affected
17、area withcopious amounts of water. See the manufacturers MSDS.7. Procedure7.1 For sample analysis, add 50 mL of isopropyl alcohol toa 250-ml Erlenmeyer flask, add 5 drops of phenolphthaleinindicator solution and titrate to a pink end point with alcoholicKOH solution.7.1.1 Swirl flask contents gently
18、 during titration. The endpoint should last for 10 to 15 s. Stopper the flask until thesample is added to minimize CO2contamination.7.2 Pour a weighed sample (about 50.00 6 0.02 g) into theflask containing the pretitrated alcohol.7.3 Titrate the sample with the standard alcoholic KOHsolution to a 15

Record the amount of titrantrequired.7.4 For standardization of 0.01 N KOH in isopropyl alcohol,proceed as follows:7.4.1 Weigh (60.0001 g) 0.142 6 0.005 g of dry (NationalBureau of Standards) primary standard potassium acid phtha-late into a 1-L volumetric flask containing about 5
20、00 mL ofdeionized CO2-free water, then stopper the flask.7.4.2 Swirl the flask to dissolve the potassium acid phtha-late.7.4.3 Fill the flask to volume with deionized, CO2-freewater, stopper the flask then mix the solution thoroughly.7.4.4 Place 25 mL (transfer pipet) of deionized, CO2-freewater and
