I- to avoid the drop of the acid into the burette which will alter the reading
II- to avoid change in concentration and contamination
III- to avoid bubbles in the pipette
(3aii)
This can be done through crystallization. The solution is dissolved, heated to a high temperature and then allowed to cool. During cooling,the sodium chloride crystallized out.

Tabulate;
Burette readings;
|Rough |1st |2nd|3rd|
Final readings in cm³;
|22.00|20.10 |20.20|20.30|
Initial reading in cm³;
|0.00|0.00|0.00 |0.00|
Volume of A (acid) used cm³;
|22.00|20.10|20.20| 20.30|
The average titre
= 20.10+20.20+20.30/3
=60.60/3
= 20.20cm³
;Va 20.20cm³

Concentration of A in mol/dm³, Ca = ?
Concentration of A (g/dm³) = 4.40g/dm³.
.m.m of A, H²SO⁴ =(1*2)+(32*1)+(16*4)
=2+32+64
=98g/mol
Using concentration (mol/dm³) = Concentration (g/dm³)/m.m
Concentration (mol/dm³)
=4.40/98
=0.045mol/dm³
;: Concentration of A(mol/dm³) = 0.045mol/dm³
(1bii)
Concentration of B(mol/dm³) =???
Ca=0.045, Va=20.20, Vb=25.00, na=1, nb=1, cb=?
Using; CaVa/CbVb = na/nb
Cb=CaVanb/Vbna =0.045*20.20*1/25.00*1
Cb=0.036mol/dm³
(1biii)
Conc. of B(g/dm³) that reacted =??
molar mass of B, Na₂CO₃ = (23*2)+(12*1)+(16*3) = 106g/mol
Conc. of B(mol/dm³) = 0.036mol/dm3
Conc. (mol/dm³) = Conc. (g/dm³)/molar mass
(0.036/1) = Conc. (g/dm³)/106
Conc. (g/dm³) = 0.036*106 = 3.82g/dm³
Conc. of B(g/dm³) = 3.82/dm³
(1biv)
mass of the impurity in 1.0dm³ of B=??
Conc. of impurity (g/dm³) = 7.50 – 3.82 = 3.68g/dm³
:. Mass of impurity= Conc. (g/dm³) x vol. (dm³)
= 3.68×1 = 3.68g
(1bv)
Vol. of CO₂ produced in 1.0dm³ of B = ??
Mole of B= Conc. x Vol. (dm³)
Mole of B = 0.036*1
Mole of B =0.036mol
By proportion,
1mol of Na₂.10₃ = 1mol of CO₂
0.036mol of Na₂.10₃ = xmol of CO₂
mole of CO₂ produced = 1*0.036 = 0.036mol
:. Volume = mole * 22.4 = 0.81dm³
