Vitamin C (ascorbic acid, C₆H₈O₆) is an essential nutrient and a reducing agent that is readily oxidised. In this investigation, you will use iodometric titration to measure the vitamin C content of fruit juice after exposure to two continuous variables: temperature and metal ion concentration. Both investigations use the same titration method, making this a versatile and highly scorable IB Chemistry IA topic. This practical is suitable for IB Diploma Chemistry and makes an excellent Internal Assessment (IA) topic.
