Iodometric and Iodimetric Titration Methods

The discussion of this paper is to knowing and understanding the standard solution using the idometric and iodimetric titration methods. Experiment intent is to knowing and understanding the standard solution using the idometric and iodimetric titration methods. Therefore, the experiment purpose is to determine the levels of vitamin C based on the oxidation-reduction reaction using the iodimetric method, to determine the levels of CuSO4 based on oxidation-reduction reactions using the iodometric method and understanding the standard solution using the idometric and iodimetric titration methods.


Introduction
The term oxidation refers to any chemical change in which there is an increase in oxidation number, whereas reduction is used for every decrease in oxidation number accompanied by a loss of electrons while reduction gains an electron. Oxidizing agents are compounds in which the atoms contained have decreased their oxidation number. In contrast to reducing agents, the atoms contained have an increase in their oxidation number. The oxidation-reduction must always take place together and compensate each other. The term oxidizing reducing agent refers to a compound, not to its atom alone (Waples, 2013) The oxidizing agent is less often determined than the reducing agent. However, the oxidizer can be determined by the reducing agent. The common reducing agents used for oxidizing determination are potassium iodide, titanium (III) ions, iron (II) ions and vanadium (II) ions. The method of redox titration using iodine solution as a pentiter is called iodometry (Merino et al. 2016).
In the analaitic process, iodine is used as an oxidation reagent (iodimetry) and iodide ion is used as a reducing reagent (iodometry). Relatively some substances are strong enough reducing reagents to be titrated directly with iodine, so the amount of iodimetric determination is small. However, there are many uses of iodometric processes. An excess of iodide ion is added to the oxidation reactant specified. With the release of iodine, which is then titrated with sodium thiosulfate solution. According to Yeboah (2013, the reaction between iodine and thiosulfate is complete. Iodine is only slightly soluble in water (0.01134) moles per liter, but slightly soluble in solutions containing iodide ions, a standard solution of iodine can be prepared by direct weighing of pure iodine and dilution in volumetric, iodine is purified by sublimation and added to a concentrated solution which was weighed carefully before and after the addition of iodine. However, when the solution is standardized against a primary standard, As 203 is the most commonly used (Suma et al. 2010)

Iodimetric Method
Determination of vitamin C levels by iodometry using the iodimetric method based on the oxidation-reduction reaction between the sample as an oxidizer in an acidic atmosphere using the starch solution indicator with the end point of the titration marked by a change in the color of the solution from clear to pale blue (Ismail et al. 2014)

Iodometric Method
Volumetric content determination using the iodometric method is based on oxidationreduction reactions where the oxidizing sample is reduced first with KI, then the amount of I2 released is determined by titration using the Na2S2O4 standard solution (Oromi, 2010)
Storage : in tightly closed container.

2. Add 150 mg of izoniasid to erlenmeyer then dissolve it with aquadest.

Result and Discussion
An oxidation reaction is the process of transferring electrons from an oxidizing or reducing agent. A reduction reaction is a reaction to capture an electron or a reaction where the oxidation number is decreased. Reducers commonly used for oxidation determination are potassium iodide, titanium (III) ions, iron (II) ions, and vanadium (II) ions. The method of titrating iodine as a pentiter is called iodimetry, while the idoin solution as the pentiter is idometry. In the iodimetric experiment, the way it works is that all the tools and materials are prepared. First, the burette was encapsulated on the stative, weighed 2 times for ascorbic acid, after weighing it, put it in Erlenmeyer then added CO2-free water, then homogenized. Added 5 ml of 10% sulfuric acid, and added 1 pipette starch indicator then titrated with I2 0.1 N and observed the end point of the titration. In the iodometric experiment, the tools and materials are prepared. First of all, the burette is attached to the stative. Weighed CuSO4 twice, then dissolved it in 50 ml of water, added 10 ml of CH3COOH, then added 3 g of KI. Cover with aluminum foil, and store in a dark place, add the starch indicator one pipette, then titrate with Na2S2O3 and observe the end point of the titration.

Conclusion
From the experimental results above, it can be concluded that: In the idimetric experiment, in the first and second ascorbic acid samples, the end point of the titration is blue (clear -blue). In iodometric experiments, in the first and second CuSO4 samples, the end point of the titration is clear (blue -clear). For Laboratorium, It is better if the materials needed in the practicum are completed, so that the practicum can run well and the use of its time is effective.
