    The document provides solutions to problems on calculating saponification value and acid value of lubricants from given data. The first problem calculates the saponification value of a lubricant that was saponified using potassium hydroxide solution and titrated with hydrochloric acid. The second problem calculates the acid value of various oil samples by titrating a known weight of the sample with a normal potassium hydroxide solution and accounting for the volume of KOH consumed. The document solves for saponification value and acid value using formulae involving normality of KOH, volume of KOH consumed and weight of the oil sample.

    1.PROBLEMS ON SAPONIFICATION
    VALUE:
    A. 2.0 gm of an oil is saponified with 30ml of N/2 alcoholic
    potassium hydroxide solution. After refluxing the
    mixture it requires 25 ml of N/2 HCl solution. Find
    saponification value of the oil.
    Ans- Saponification value=Volume of KOH
    consumed*NKOH*56/Weight of the oil
    = (30-25)*0.5*56/2.0
    =7.0 mgs of KOH

    B. 3 gms of lubricant was saponified with KOH


    solution.After saponification,the mixture was titrated
    against 0.5N HCl solution. The burrete reading was
    found to be 12ml. if blank titration burrete reading was
    36ml.calculate the saponification number of the
    lubricant.
    Ans - - Saponification value=Volume of KOH
    consumed*NKOH*56/Weight of the oil
    =(36-12)*28/3
    =224 mgs of KOH
    (as NKOH not given,assume it to be 1)

    2.4 PROBLEMS ON ACID VALUE:


    A. 2.5 gms of an oil sample required 2.5ml of N/100 KOH
    to neutralize fatty acids in oil.
    Find the acid value of the sample.
    Ans Acid value= Volume of KOH
    consumed*NKOH*56/Weight of the oil
    =2.5*0.01*56/2.5
    =0.56Mgs of KOH
    B. Find the acid value of a vegetable oil whose 5ml
    required 2ml of N/100 KOH during titration. Density of
    oil=0.92
    Ansi. Wt of oil=Density*volume
    =0.92*5=4.60gms
    ii. Acid value= Volume of KOH
    consumed*NKOH*56/Weight of the oil
    =2*0.01*56/4.45=0.236mg of KOH
    C. An oil blend was analysed for its acid value 5ml of oil
    required 2.5ml N/100 KOH. Find its acidic value. State
    whether the blend is useful for lubrication(density
    =0.89)
    Ansi. Wt of oil=Density*volume
    =5*0.89=4.45gms
    ii. Acid value= Volume of KOH
    consumed*NKOH*56/Weight of the oil
    =2.5*0.01*56/4.45=0.315mg of KOH
    As this value is greater than 0.1,it cannot be used
    for lubrication.
