  • time 2 h 15 min to complete each part, 15 min break in between. 30 min warning before the end of each part. You will be guided to the break area and back to the lab.
  • when entering the lab search for the table with your student code.
  • your student code get sure this is present on every page.
  • answers only in the answer boxes in the booklet, nothing else will be graded. Relevant calculations have to be shown.
  • use only the pen, pencil and calculator provided.
  • more chemicals needed? Ask your lab assistant. No penalty for this with an exception of the hereunder.
  • questions concerning safety, apparatus, chemicals, toilet break: ask your lab assistant.
  • chemical waste carefully pour in the sink at your working place.
  • official English version available on request for clarification only. Ask your lab assistant.
  • after the stop signal put your booklet aside and leave it at your working table.
  • You must stop your work immediately after the stop signal has been given. A 5 min delay will result in zero points for the current task.

During the Practical exam some of the glassware and plastics are expected to be used several times. Clean it carefully.

Concentration of reducing sugars is determined by iodometric back titration. The iodine excess is titrated by a standard thiosulfate solution using starch as an indicator. The glucose concentration is determined in the initial mixture, whereas the sucrose concentration is found as from the total amount of reducing sugars determined in the same mixture subjected to hydrolysis.

Procedure

Dissolve the given sample in the 50 mL volumetric flask labeled «Sample and your student code» in distilled water (from the wash bottle) and bring up to the mark with water. Take an aliquot of this solution for sucrose hydrolysis. Use the remaining solution for titrimetric determination of glucose (glucose determination and hydrolysis can be done simultaneously).

A. Iodometric determination of a reducing sugar concentration (back titration)

Using pipette place 5.00 mL of the analyzed sugar solution (prior to and after hydrolysis) into a conical titration flask and add 12.5 mL of the standard iodine solution from the burette of common use. Then, using measuring cylinder add 25 mL of 0.1 M NaOH solution with agitation. Store the solution for 10 min allowing complete oxidation of the sugar. Add 1.50 mL of 2 M HCl and titrate the iodine excess with the standard thiosulfate solution till pale-yellow coloration appears. Then add 2-3 drops of 1 % starch solution and continue titrating with agitation till blue coloration disappears.

IUPAC Periodic Table of the Elements (version dated 1 June 2012): groups 1–18 with atomic number, symbol, name and standard atomic weight of each element, the lanthanoids and actinoids below, a key box, notes on the atomic weights and the IUPAC logo. Printed at the end of both booklets.

1. Write down the volumes of thiosulfate solution used for glucose titration:

Titration numberVinitV_{\mathrm{init}}, mLVfinalV_{\mathrm{final}}, mLV1V_1, mL

3
Your accepted volume, mL:

[20 т.]

B. Sucrose hydrolysis

Using 20 mL bulb (Mohr) pipette transfer an aliquot of the solution from the volumetric flask labeled «Sample and your student code» into the 100 mL beaker and add 10 mL of 2 M hydrochloric acid solution with measuring cylinder or 5 mL pipette. Heat the beaker with the mixture on the magnetic stirrer for 8–10 min at about 70°C.

Notes.

  1. Since the magnetic stirrer heats up slowly, adjust the regulator first to full power, and then to about ¼ of full power.
  2. Avoid boiling the solution. Temperature of 70 °C can be distinguished by condensate formation on the beaker walls.

When finished with heating, cool the beaker down to room temperature under tap water and neutralize the mixture with 2M NaOH solution in the presence of Methyl Red till yellow coloration appears (Note. The Methyl Red indicator is located at the table of common use). Transfer the reaction mixture in the other volumetric flask and bring up to the mark with water. Use the obtained solution for the determination of the total amount of reducing sugars as described in Section A.

2. Write down the volumes of thiosulfate solution used for glucose and sucrose titration:

5. Write down the equation of iodine reaction with alkali. [1 т.]
