A sample of water is alkaline to both phenolphthalein as well as methyl
orange. 100 mL of this water sample required 10 mL of N/50 H2SO4 for
phenolphthalein end point and 10 mL of the acid to methyl orange end
point on separate titration. Calculate the types and extent of alkalinity
present in water.

Given:
A sample of water is alkaline to both phenolphthaleins as well as methyl orange.
100 mL of water sample required 10 mL of H2SO4 for phenolphthalein endpoint.
10 mL of the acid to methyl orange endpoint.
To find:
The alkalinity of water =?
Explanation:
dibasic in nature.
Normality of sulphuric acid =
Normality = 0.2N
Molarity of sulphuric acid =
Molarity = 0.01
Mols of sulphuric acid = 10mL × 0.01M
= 0.1mmol
Amount of base = 2×0.1 mmol
= 0.2mmol
Conc of bas e =
=
Now
POH = -log[OH-]
= -log (2×)
= 2.7
The sum of pH and pOH is 14.
pH +pOH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH
= 14 -2.7
pH = 11.3
So alkalinity of water is 11.3
