Identify the incorrect statements regarding primary standard of titrimetric analysis
(A) It should be purely available in dry form.
(B) It should not undergo chemical change in air.
(C) It should be hygroscopic and should react with another chemical instantaneously and stoichiometrically.
(D) It should be readily soluble in water.
(E) can be used as primary standard.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
  1. (A)(C) and (D) only
  2. (B)(B) and (E) only
  3. (C)(A) and (B) only
  4. (D)(C) and (E) only✓ Correct

Answer: (D)

Solution

A primary standard must NOT be hygroscopic — so (C) is incorrect; and & can NOT be primary standards — so (E) is incorrect. The incorrect statements are (C) and (E). Option (4).
