قياس محتوى حمض الأسكوربيك في عصير الفاكهة

Titrations Intermediate (High School) 40 دقيقة ~$10,00

الهدف

تحديد محتوى فيتامين C (حمض الأسكوربيك) في عصير الفاكهة الطازج باستخدام معايرة اليود مع مؤشر النشا.

الخلفية

Ascorbic acid reduces iodine to iodide ions in a 1:1 molar ratio. Starch indicator turns dark blue-black in the presence of excess iodine. When all the vitamin C is consumed, the next drop of iodine produces the blue-black color, marking the endpoint.

تحذيرات السلامة

المعدات

50 mL burette Burette stand and clamp 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask 25 mL pipette Pipette filler White tile

الإجراء

1

Rinse and fill the burette with the standardized iodine solution. Record the initial volume.

3 دقيقة Iodine stains
2

Pipette 25.0 mL of orange juice into the Erlenmeyer flask.

2 دقيقة
3

Add 5 drops of starch indicator to the flask.

1 دقيقة
4

Titrate by adding iodine solution slowly while swirling. The brown iodine color will disappear as it reacts with vitamin C.

8 دقيقة
5

Near the endpoint, add drop by drop until a persistent dark blue-black color appears for 20 seconds.

3 دقيقة
6

Record the final volume and repeat for concordant results.

15 دقيقة
7

Calculate the mass of vitamin C per volume of juice. Compare with the labeled value.

النتائج المتوقعة

Fresh orange juice typically contains 40-80 mg of vitamin C per 100 mL. The starch-iodine endpoint should be a sharp transition to blue-black. Older or heat-treated juice will show lower vitamin C content.

التنظيف

Dispose of iodine waste in designated containers. Rinse all glassware with water. Clean any iodine stains with sodium thiosulfate solution.
