 Standards
 In Pharmaceutical Analysis, the word standard means a material
containing a substance of our interest with a known
concentration. We can express this with definite numbers with
proper units.
 Functions
 To provide a reference using which we can determine unknown
concentration of solution
 To standardization of volumetric solutions
 Preparation of secondary standard
 To calibrate an instrument

Primary and Secondary Standards
 Primary Standards
 Primary standard is a reagent which is very pure,
generally representative of the number of moles the
substance contains and easily weighed.
 A Primary standard is a reagent thats stable, its not
a hydrate /has no water of hydration, and has a
high molecular weight.
 Primary standards are typically used in titration to determine
an unknown concentration and in other analytical techniques.
 High level of purity, low reactivity (high stability), high
equivalent weight (to reduce error from mass measurements)
 Not hygroscopic (to reduce changes in mass in humid versus dry
environments), non-toxic, inexpensive and readily available
 It should have a high relative molecular weight so that weighing
errors may be negligible.
 The substance should be readily soluble under the conditions in
which it is employed.
 The substance commonly employed as primary standards are
mention below
 Acid- base reactions: sodium carbonate Na2CO3, sodium
tetraborate Na2B4O7, potassium hydrogenphthalate KH(C8H4O4),
potassium hydrogeniodate KH(IO3)2.
 Complex formation reactions: pure metals ( zinc, copper,
magnesium and manganese) and salts, depending upon the
reaction used.
 Precipitation reactions: silver, silver nitrate, sodium chloride,
potassium chloride and potassium bromide.
 Oxidation- reduction reaction: potassium dichromate
(K2Cr2O7), potassium bromate (KBr), potassium iodate ( KIO3),
sodium oxalate Na2C2O4 and pure iron.
 Secondary standard
 Secondary standard is a chemical that has been
standardized against a primary standard for use in a
specific analysis. Secondary standards are commonly used
to calibrate analytical methods.
 A secondary standard is a substance which may be used
for standardization
 A secondary standard is a standard that is prepared in
the laboratory for a specific analysis. It is usually
standardized against a primary standard.
 It follows that a secondary standard solution is a solution in
which the concentration of dissolved solute has not been
determined from the weight of the compound dissolved but by
reaction (titration) of a volume of the solution against a
measured volume of a primary standard solution.
 A secondary standard is a chemical or reagent which has
certain properties such as.
 It has less purity than primary standard
 Less stable and more reactive than primary standard But
its solution remains stable for a long time
 Titrated against primary standard
