2. a) What is the oxidizing agent in Experimental Procedure , Vitamin C Analysis?
b) What is the colour change of the starch indicator that signaks the stoichiometric point?
c) What is the purpose of adding sodium bicarbonate to the ascorbic acid sample ? write a balanced equation for its reaction
d) The NaHCO3 sollution is omitted in an analysis of a sample . Will the reported amout of ascorbic acid in the sample be too
high , too low , or unaffected ? Explain.
3 . a) After adding the standard solution of KIO3 , the KI , H2SO4 and NaHCO3 sollutions , the sample solution remains colourless!
What modification of the experimental procedure can be made to correct for thos unexpected observation in order to
complete the analysis?
b)The deep-blue colour of the I2 . starch complex does not appear !What next? Should you continue titrating with the
standard Na2S2O3 solution or discard the simple ?Explain
