Hi

2NaOH (aq) + CuSO4 (aq) ----> Cu(OH)2 (s) + Na2SO4 (aq)

In this reaction a precipitate copper hydroxide is formed. The reaction will stop at the moment when whole of the copper in sulphate is converted into copper hydroxide. So, on measuring the weight of the precipitate adn so the moles, the exact amount of NaOH and other reactant product can be calculated. Therefore, it is not essential to record the exact amount of NaOH added to the copper (II) solution.

Background: Creating the copper complex [Cu(H2O)6] 2+ . Ammonia added to solution which causes water molcueles to be progressivly replaced by ammonia. This shifts downwards the complex's wavelength of absorption. Question: Why is ammonium sulphate required to be added during preparation of copper complex? It prevents the formation of hydroxides - why is this important?

Reaction (i) Pb2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) ⇌ PbCl2(s) If NaOH is added to reaction (i), a second precipitation reaction will occur: Reaction (ii) Pb2+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) ⇌ Pb(OH)2(s) The important aspect of this is that the two reactions take place within the same container (just because we draw them separately on paper does not mean they are separate inside in the container). Thus, reaction (i) and (ii) are coupled at the molecular level by a common chemical species that...
