Not mixing the solution as you carry on adding the acid or alkali to the conical flask. While
the tap is open and solution is the conical flask (Na2co3) is mixing with solution in the
burrete (Hcl) make sure you have one hand (left hand if you are left handed) on the tap to
close it immediately and another hand holding the conical flask and mixing in the solution as
it goes. use your rough titre to estimate the time when you need to make burette have drops
of instead of it been running. if the solution from the burette (hcl) is not mixing properly, it will
take longer time to see the color change (pink to colorless). this is because hcl needs to be
spread through na2co3 to fully react and by not full mixing in the two solutions the color
change will be delayed this causes end point titration to be incorrect.
This error can affect your titration result hugely as this is done whole
throughout the titration. Firstly, in as the initial volume , then in the final
volume. If you don't read of at an eye level your titre value will be wrong as it is
not accurate. This will affect the mean titre, which will affect the concentration
calculation.

Nature of these bonds affects the type of reaction that takes place.
Hyfrocholoric is also a strong acid. Therefore, i will have the characteristics of
losing it hydrogen in water base solution like sodium carbonate. This means
you will have reaction where two new compounds are made, neither of them
will be a strong acid or base making a neutralization reaction.
Sodium carbonate is a base when bases are dissolved in water they are known
as alkali. Mixing acid and alkali will give you a salt because the alkali is
carbonate you will get both cabon dioxide and hydroxide, as shown in the
chemical formulate.
