- Name the substance 'X' placed in 'A' and the substance 'Y' placed in B.
- State the reason for conducting the titration using the apparatus 'A' and 'B'.
- State which solution is transferred to the evaporating dish and evaporated to point of crystallization for obtaining the salt.
- State why titration is not conducted for the preparation of copper [II] sulphate crystals by neutralization.

- Dil. sulphuric acid (H2SO4) is substance 'X' placed in 'A' and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is the substance 'Y' placed in B.
- Titration is conducted to determine the completion of the neutralization reaction, i.e. to determine the amount of sulphuric acid required to neutralize a known amount of sodium hydroxide.
- Aqueous sodium sulphate (Na2SO4.10H2O) is transferred to the evaporating dish and evaporated to point of crystallisation for obtaining the salt.
- As copper (II) oxide is not soluble in water hence titration is not conducted for the preparation of copper (II) sulphate crystals by neutralization.
