LAB REPORT 5 – ACID/BASE CHEMISTRY No credit will be given for this lab report if the Data section is not completely filled out and if the required photographs are not received. At least one photograph must show the student’s face. NOTE: This experiment is rather lengthy. Plan accordingly. OBJECTIVES 1. Define strong electrolyte‚ weak electrolyte‚ nonelectrolyte‚ acid‚ base‚ salt‚ strong acid‚ weak acid‚ strong base‚ weak base‚ and neutralization reaction. 2. Compare and contrast the chemical

Chemistry Laboratory I Acid Base Review Definition In general‚ an acid is a substance that can donate a proton (H+) and a base is a substance that can accept a proton. Any proton in an organic molecule can potentially be donated. The most acidic proton in a molecule would be donated first. Any lone pair in an organic molecule can act as the proton acceptor. An acid (HA) reacts with a base (in this case H2O) to form the conjugate base of the acid (A-) and the conjugate acid of the base (H3O+).

Objective: The objective of this experiment is to use acid-base extraction techniques to separate a mixture of organic compounds based on acidity and/or basicity. After the three compounds are separated we will recover them into their salt forms and then purify them by recrystallization and identify them by their melting points. Procedure: Extraction of Carboxylic Acid A pre-weighed (0.315g) mixture of Carboxylic acid‚ a phenol‚ and neutral substance was placed into a reaction tube (tube 1)

Diffusion of Hydrochloric Acid into Different Sizes of Agar Blocks Aim: Investigating the relationship between the diffusion and the surface area to volume ratio‚ with agar and hydrochloric acid. Research Question: How does the difference in surface area to volume ratio affect the diffusion? Hypothesis: As the area to volume ratio increases‚ the time taken for a complete diffusion will also increase. Background Information: Agar is a jelly like substance and in this experiment‚ agar

An Experiment to find the Concentration of a Sample of Acid Rain Plan Aim When a metal is extracted from its ore often sulphur dioxide is produced. When sulphur dioxide is dissolved in water it forms a strong acid called sulphuric acid. Sulphuric acid is often sold as a useful by-product‚ but also gets into the water cycle and forms acid rain. In this experiment‚ I have been given a sample acid rain of concentration between 0.05 mol dm-3 and 0.15 mol dm-3 and my aim is to find out exactly what

of Bromine to trans-Cinnamic Acid Introduction/Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to carry out the bromination of trans-cinnamic acid‚ to determine the stereochemistry of the dibromide product of 2‚3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid‚ and find out whether the reaction proceeds by the usual bromonium ion mechanism or some other mechanism. In this experiment trans-cinnamic acid was mixed with glacial acetic acid and stirred in which then bromine/acetic acid solution was added to the mixture

The full strength 1M HCl acid had a pH level of 3.12 (Table 3.1). Sample A2 to A4 remained in the pH 3 level‚ while sample A5 and A6 had a pH range of 4 (Table 3.1). The pH level for 1M HCl dilutions slightly increased between each sample (Table 3.1). The diluted solutions of 1 M NaOH showed a few unexpected results. The original solution of 1 M NaOH was at a pH level of 11.50 (Table 3.1). However‚ the pH of sample B2 increased to 12.81 (Table 3.1). The remaining samples had a decreasing pH pattern

in acid-base titrations Objectives 1. To understand the importance of choosing suitable indicators for detecting the end points of acid-base titrations. 2. To obtain titration curves for some acid-base titrations. Introduction Indicator is usually a weak organic acid or base that has distinctly different colours in its protonated and deprotonated forms. There are 4 types of acid-base titrations such as strong acid-weak base titration‚ weak acid-strong base titration‚ strong acid-strong

Ka‚ Acid Dissociation Constant and Kb‚ Base Dissociation Constant (Lesson Recap) Ka‚ Acid Dissociation Constant Ka- is the Keq for the dissociation for a weak acid. e.g Acetic Acid‚ when dissolved in H2O CH3COOH (aq) + H2O (l) (ACID) (BASE) CH3COO (aq) + H3O(l) (CONJ BASE) (CONJ ACID) CH3COOH (aq) + H2O(l) ↔ CH3COO (aq) + H3O(l) *ONLY weak acid and back can be reversible Equation for Ka : Keq= [CH3COO(aq)] [H3O(l)][CH3COOH(aq)] [H2O(l)] Keq x [H2O
