States military utilize the silver oxide batteries because they can contain a high current load and high operating voltage. This battery has a higher durability and is not flammable compared to other batteries. Silver oxide is also used as an antimicrobial agent and is known to remove undesired microbes. Silver oxide is known to be a very reactive compound. Due to this fact‚ it may be difficult in our experiment to purify the silver oxide because of its nature of being very attracted to CO2 molecules

1. The standard curve is a graph that shows a relationship between concentration and absorbance of a solution. A standard curve was experimentally created in this experiment using 10mL solutions of phenol red with concentrations 10µM‚ 7.5 µM‚ 5.0 µM and 2.5 µM then the absorbance of each sample was measured using a spectrophotometer. This generated curve with resulting average absorbances of 1.273nm‚ 1.0275nm‚ 0.585nm‚ 0.285nm and 0.124nm provided a means to determine the phenol red concentrations
