Lab: Determining the Quantity of Vitamin C in Fruit Juice A titration does not always have to involve an acid-base reaction. Analyze the information provided about a titration to determine the concentration of vitamin C in fruit juice. Vitamin C, also called ascorbic acid, is commonly found in commercial fruit juices and drinks. In this activity you will analyze data collected from a titration analysis of a fruit juice.

H H O-H molar mass 176.14 g/mol H-0 Background Information Ascorbic acid reacts with lodine in solution, as described by the following reaction: ascorbic acid(aq) +1,(aq)-dehydroascorbic acid(aq) + 21 (aq) In this procedure a standard aqueous iodine solution is added to a sample of juice. The initial reaction involves lodine reacting until the ascorbic acid in the juice sample depletes. The endpoint of this titration is a blue colour, signified by the reaction of excess iodine with starch (which is added to the juice prior to titration). Earlier in this lesson you calculated a mass of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) that you would expect to find in the juice if it met the 80% of the daily recommended amount. Purpose The purpose of this investigation is to test the manufacturer's claim that the juice product contains 80% of the daily recommended amount of ascorbic acid.
Problem What mass of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is present in a box of juice? Materials • • • • • . . lab apron eye protection fruit juice (200-ml box) 0.002 00-mol/L iodine solution starch indicator solution distilled water 50-ml burette and stand stirring rod small funnel 10-mL volumetric pipette and bulb clean, dry beaker 125-ml. Erlenmeyer flask Procedure Step 1: Assemble the ring stand and burette clamp. Clean the burette using distilled water, and wash using a small quantity of the aqueous iodine solution. Place the burette in the clamp. Step 2: Fill the burette with the aqueous iodine solution. Step 3: Read and record the volume in the burette. Step 4: Clean the pipette using distilled water, and wash using a small quantity of the fruit juice. Use the pipette to transfer 10.00 mL of juice to the Erlenmeyer flask. Step 5: Add a few drops of the starch indicator solution to the Erlenmeyer flask. Step 6: Add 40 mL of distilled water to the Erlenmeyer flask Step 7: Titrate the juice sample to the desired endpoint-a permanent dark blue colour. Measure and record the burette reading at the endpoint. Record the endpoint colour. Step 8: Repeat steps 3 to 7 three more times (four trials altogether).
