KNES 470 Dr Rubin 4-18-12 Sodium Bicarbonate and Boxing Performance Boxing is a sport which relies on anaerobic power since it contains short-duration and high intensity work. A typical boxing match today consists of 3 minute rounds with a 1 minute seated recovery rest. When an athlete performs exercise at maximal level for more than 30 seconds‚ most of the energy comes from anaerobic glycolysis. During this process‚ lactic acid is produced which causes a decrease in pH levels within the muscle

1.0 Aim The purpose of this experiment is to use Volumetric Analysis to determine the concentration of acetic acid in white vinegar. 2.0 Theory The concentration is a measurement of relative amounts of solute and solvent. There are many diverse ways of expressing concentration but the most accepted and widely used is molar concentration and regularly referred to as molarity which is defined in mole‚ the amount of solute dissolved in one litre of solution. [pic] In this experiment there

4 Titration Curve of an Amino Acid pH Simple amino acid Acidic amino acid Basic amino acid 7 OH- equivalents Objectives: A) To determine the titration curve for an amino acid and B) to use this curve to estimate the pKa values of the ionizable groups of the amino acid and the amino acid’s pI. Introduction: A titration curve of an amino acid is a plot of the pH of a weak acid against the degree of neutralization of the acid by standard (strong) base. Consider the ionization

Title: Analysis of Vitamin C in Ribena Using Titration Aim: The objectives of this experiment were to gain knowledge on how to titrate solution and determine amount of Vitamin C in Ribena. Results Table 1: Mass of Ascorbic Acid in Volumetric Flask Mass of empty bottle (g) 21.5922 Mass of empty bottle with ascorbic acid (g) 21.6954 Mass of empty bottle (g) 21.5924 Mass of ascorbic acid used (g) 0.1002 Number of moles: (mass of ascorbic acid used)/(molecular mass of ascorbic acid) = 0.1002g/(176

Background Knowledge of the dissolved oxygen (O2) concentration in seawater is often necessary in environmental and marine science. It may be used by physical oceanographers to study water masses in the ocean. It provides the marine biologist with a means of measuring primary production - particularly in laboratory cultures. For the marine chemist‚ it provides a measure of

Laboratory safety regulations 1) Corrosive acids and alkali must be treated carefully‚ and be sure not to splash on clothes‚ skin and eyes. While diluting strong sulfuric acid‚ the acid should be poured slowly into the water with stirring‚ but not water into the acid. 2)It’s not allowed to handle solid drugs with the hand directly.

2. An aqueous solution of KCl is colorless‚ KMnO4 is purple‚ and K2Cr2O7 is orange. What color would you expect of an aqueous solution of Na2Cr2O7? Explain. Orange. 3. Explain why hexane will dissolve benzene but will not dissolve sodium chloride. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound. 4. Some drinks like tea are consumed hot or cold‚ whereas others like Coca-Cola are consumed only cold. Why? For taste reasons‚ these drinks can be drunk if the user likes It but having coca cola like tea

Water was the negative control group and sodium phosphate was the positive control group. If NaCl was a buffer than the pH would be stabled as the sodium phosphate buffer. If NaCl was not a buffer than the pH would fluctuate like the negative control‚ water. During the first trial and prior to the drops of 0.5 M of HCl acid‚ the

DETERMINATION OF FRUIT ACIDS BY TITRATION AND CALCULATION OF THE SUGAR/ACID RATIO It is the sugar/acid ratio which contributes towards giving many fruits their characteristic flavour and so is an indicator of commercial and organoleptic ripeness. At the beginning of the ripening process the sugar/acid ratio is low‚ because of low sugar content and high fruit acid content‚ this makes the fruit taste sour. During the ripening process the fruit acids are degraded‚ the sugar content increases and
