5.00 g of an impure sample of hydrated ethanedioic acid, (COOH)₂•2H₂O, was dissolved in water to make 1.00 dm³ of solution. 25.0 cm³ samples of this solution were titrated against a 0.100 mol dm^-3 solution of sodium hydroxide using a suitable indicator.

(COOH)₂ (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → (COONa)₂ (aq) + 2H₂O (l)

The mean value of the titre was 14.0 cm³.

(i) Suggest a suitable indicator for this titration. Use section 22 of the data booklet.

(ii) Calculate the amount, in mol, of NaOH in 14.0 cm³ of 0.100 mol dm^-3 solution.

(iii) Calculate the amount, in mol, of ethanedioic acid in each 25.0 cm³ sample.

(iv) Determine the percentage purity of the hydrated ethanedioic acid sample.
