• The burette needs to be lowered down before being equipped with the funnel and then filled with the solution to avoid spillage.
• The N-bromosuccinimide needs to be handled with care because it is highly irritating to eyes, skin, and mucous membrane.
3. Error :
• The intensity of the blue color at the end of titration seemed slightly different in each of the experiments.
4. Theories and concepts used :
• The mole and molarity concept was used in the calculation. The moles of N-bromosuccinimide was obtained from multiplying molarity and volume, whereas the mass of ascorbic acid was determined by converting moles to grams.
• Oxidation-Reduction
