Acids vs Bases In chemistry‚ when some elements are mixed‚ the compounds that are formed can be classified depending on its characteristics‚ just like acids and bases. Acids are defined as compounds that donate a hydrogen ion‚ H+‚ to another compound. Bases are the chemical opposite of acids. They both are different in many ways. One way in which acids and bases differ is the pH and the pOH. The pH is a number used to denote the hydrogen-ion concentration‚ or the acidity‚ of a solution. In the

Extreme Sports: Are They Worth The Risk? Broken bones‚ head trauma‚ shark attacks‚ and casualties all while playing the sport you love. Is it worth it? With extreme sports come extreme risks. There are many controversies over these sports as to whether they are ethical or not and why anybody with the right mindset would consider participating in such events. These sports often involve high speed‚ great heights‚ a high level of physical exertion‚ and highly specialized gear or spectacular stunts

EXPERIMENT 3: INTRODUCTION TO TITRATION – DETERMINATION OF THE MOLARITY AND CONCENTRATION OF SULPHURIC ACID BY TITRATION WITH A STANDARD SOLUTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE INTRODUCTION Reaction of acid and base is one of the most common reaction in chemistry. This reaction is also widely known as neutralization. In this experiment‚ we used titration technique which involves accurately measuring the volume of a solution required to react with another reagent. An indicator must be used to determine the

BASE ISOLATED BUILDINGS What is base isolation? When a building is built away (isolated) from the ground‚ resting on flexible bearings or pads known as base isolators. It is of the most popular means of protecting a structure against earthquake forces. HISTORY The first evidence of architects using the principle of base isolation for earthquake protection was discovered in Pasargadae. One of the world’s first base-isolated structures – the William Clayton building Base Isolation

Exercise 6: Acid-Base Titrations Nick Redmond Partner: Stephan Villavicencio Thurs. Section Lab date: March 19‚ 1998 Report date: April 6‚ 1998 Abstract: The equilibrium between acids and bases during a titration can be used to determine several characteristics of the acid or the base. Sodium hydroxide was standardized to 0.1035 M in three acid-base titrations of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP). This standardized NaOH solution was then used in a series of other titrations with acids

Acid-Base Titration Using a pH Meter Bradley Holloway and Jennifer Parker Period 6 April 16‚ 2013 Introduction: In chemistry‚ the ability to find molarities of acidic and basic solutions is a convenient way to convert between moles of solute and the volumes of their solutions. Through the process of titration‚ the molarity of these acids and bases can be found to a high level of precision. To begin titration‚ one solution is added to a second solution slowly until a certain point

ACID BASE TITRATION OBJECTIVES 1. To demonstrate the basic laboratory technique of titration 2. To learn to calculate molarity based on titrations INTRODUCTION Molarity (M) or molar concentration is a common unit for expressing the concentration of solutions. It is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution (or millimoles of solute per milliliter of solution). The concentration of a basic solution can be determined by titrating it with a volume of a standard acid solution (of
