Calculation

Stage 1

         Volume of HCl consumed           = ______ mL

         Strength of HCl                               = _______ N

         Volume of extract (Na2CO3)       = 10 mL

         Strength of extract (Na2CO3)     =(ml x N)/10 mL        N

         Strength of extract (Na2CO3)     = ___x___ N

Amount of Na2CO3 in the extract (g) = (x * vol. of water * Eq.wt of Na2CO3 ) / 1000 mL

                                                               = ____y__ g


Percentage of extraction (η1)    = (y x 100)/20

                                              = ______ %

Stage 2 & 3

                Similar calculation of Stage 1

Total extraction up to stage 3

ηT = η1 + η2 + η3

ηT = ______ %

Result:

Extraction in stage 1 (η1)            = _________ %

Extraction in stage 2 (η2)            = _________ %  

Extraction in stage 3 (η3)            = _________ %

Total extraction upto 3rd stage (ηT) = _______ %
