    Acids and Bases are two groups of chemical compounds that generally have opposite characteristics. They have there own unique traits‚ acids taste sour‚ turn litmus red while bases taste bitter and turn litmus blue. The term pH relates to measuring the acidity or alkalinity of a solution‚ such as vinegar‚ or even a damp substance like soul. The neutral pH is 7‚ which is essentially water‚ with lower numbers indicating acidity and higher numbers indicating alkalinity. Hydronium ions (H3O+) are

    Title Abstract During this experiment the change in pH of Citric acids is measured from start to equilibrium in mL. This experiment was tested by titration it had two separate trials. Through observations it was shown that the more concentrated acids needed more drops of NaOH to reach its equilibrium then the less concentrated acids. Introduction Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong base and when it is titrated with a strong acid the equivalence point will be expected to be a pH of 7 (wyzant.com

    almost everyone associates with acids and bases is the litmus paper‚ which has the ability to change the color in response to an acid or a base. Phenolphthalein is another common indicator use by beginners in chemistry because its color change is very obvious‚ making it easy to use. There are many other indicators that change color at different pH levels‚ and so are useful for different purposes. Many pigments found in nature can be quite effectively used as acid-base indicators. The purple eggplant
