    is not in the normal blood pH‚ the person can fall sick and it might be harm to the person. The maintenance of blood pH is called acid-base homeostasis. Acid-base homeostasis is a complex synergy that involving lungs‚ kidneys and a buffer chemical in blood and blood cells. BACKGROUND A substance that has high concentration of hydrogen ion in solution is called acid and solution that has low concentration of hydrogen ion is base. Base

    Acids and Bases Are Everywhere Every liquid you see will probably have either acidic or basic traits. Water (H2O) can be both an acid and a base‚ depending on how you look at it. It can be considered an acid in some reactions and a base in others. Water can even react with itself to form acids and bases. It happens in really small amounts‚ so it won’t change your experiments at all. It goes like this: 2H2O --> H2O + H+ + OH- --> H3O+ + OH- See how the hydrogen ion was transferred? Most of the

    10.1 COMMON ACIDS and ALKALIS in DAILY LIFE A. ACIDS 1) In our daily life‚ there are many foods‚ drinks and flavourings that taste sour. e.g. yoghurt’ lemons and vinegar. 2) They taste sour because they contain acids‚ which give the sour taste. e.g. Yoghurt contains lactic acid. Lemons contain citric acid. Vinegar contains ethanoic acid. 3) Many household cleaners and personal care products also contain acids. e.g. Toilet bowl cleaners contain hydrochloric acid. Some body lotions

    Task 4 – The Maintenance of the Acid – Base balance in the body (D1) pH is measured based on its acidity and alkalinity. There are many substances around the body that have different pH values. A pH of 7 is usually considered neutral‚ neither acid nor alkaline‚ this is the pH of water. In the body the acids and bases need to be in very close balance‚ this is called ‘acid base homeostasis. If it goes off too far in either direction then it could be fatal to the body. For example in the body the blood

    solution of an acidic and organic compound and purify its respective acidic product through the techniques of an acid base extraction‚ recrystallization‚ and use of Melt Temp (melting point range). The reaction of an unknown acid (3-chlorobenzoic acid) with diethyl and sodium hydroxide was observed‚ and the solution naturally separated into an aqueous and organic solution. The mixture of acid and organic solution was created and then separated through the Hirsch funnel into separate beakers of an aqueous

    Lab 1: Acid/Base Properties of an Antimicrobial Agent 09/03/13 Purpose The purpose was to determine the acid and base properties of the antimicrobial agent sodium benzoate. Theory Sodium has mainly been used in food processing to avoid growth of bacteria and harmful microorganisms. It is commonly used to preserve foods and beverages that have an acidic pH. Rather than benzoic acid‚ sodium benzoate is used because it is generally soluble in most aqueous solutions but benzoic acid is not

    Worksheet - Acids‚ Bases and Salts 1. I am pure water. When heated my pH (increases‚ decreases)‚ because more of my water molecules dissociate. 2. I am a 0.020 M solution of weak acid‚ HA. If I only dissociate to the extent of 1.50%‚ what is the value of my Ka? 3. I am a 0.20 M solution of hydrocyanic acid‚ HCN‚ with a Ka of 4.93 x 10¯ 10 . What is my pH? 4. I am a buffer made from 0.10 M acetic acid and 0.15 M sodium acetate. If the Ka for acetic acid is 1.77 x 10¯ 5 ‚ what is my pH? 5. I am

    Science C.A.T Year 9 2014 Advanced by Sara Hamilton 9H Testing Vinegar – Acid Base Titration Aim The aim of this practical experiment was to pair up and measure the concentration of the acid in three different brands of vinegar. We added a base liquid‚ to the three different brands of vinegar until a neutralization reaction occurred. We conducted the experiment using the titration method. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the vinegar that will have the highest acidic level will be Cornwell’s
