caused when someone’s stomach produced excess amounts of gastric acids. One of the abundant acids is Hydrochloric Acid (HCl); this acid has a pH level of 1. When there is too much acid in our stomach‚ it rises up to the esophagus‚ which causes the burning sensation known as heartburn. You can treat this if you take antacids‚ antacids are mild bases that can help neutralize the stomach and ends heartburn. GENERAL NEUTRALIZATION EQUATION: Acid + Base = H2O + NaCl HCl + NaOH = water + salt Purpose

Abstract Our study is entitled “The Feasibility of Aspartic Acid found in Oyster Shells as an additive ingredient in improving the absorbency of commercialized sanitary napkins.” The objective of the study was to extract a protein from the oyster shells to produce aspartic acid which can replace the manufactured polymer found in commercialized sanitary napkins. The significance of our study is that the product is an alternative in producing polymers. It is also environmental friendly; biodegradable

Acetylsalicylic Acid/Aspirin and N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) Ethanimidate/Acetaminophen respectively from Excedrin. The first reaction scheme to undergo acid-base organic extraction was to isolate the most acidic compound in Excedrin with a weak base‚ K2HPO4. We isolated the aspirin using aqueous base extraction‚ with Dipotassium phosphate then treated with HCl to force acidification. The mechanism for Scheme 1 is shown below: The second reaction scheme we used was also an organic acid-base extraction

juice changes and decreases upon heatingat a constant temperature for increasing periods of time. - Method to test hypothesis: The hypothesis can be tested by first determining the amount of ascorbic acid needed to decolourize 3mL of DCPIP solution‚ and calculating the concentration of Vitamin C in the ascorbic acid. Next‚ determine the amount of fruit juice needed to decolourize 3mL of DCPIP solution‚ and calculating the concentration of Vitamin C in the fruit juice initially. Then‚ heat a few test

out concentration of the ascorbic acid in the tablet‚ a redox reaction of it with iodine was done. While iodine is an oxidizing agent and ascorbic acid is a reducing agent. The reaction forms dehydroascorbic acid and iodide. Ascorbic acid + I2 -> dehydroascorbic acid + 2 H+ + 2 I- However‚ Iodine does not dissolve in water very well. In this case‚ standard solution of potassium iodate(V) is used to produce aqueous iodine. Excess potassium iodide and dilute sulphuric acid is added to react with potassium

How Acid Rain Affects Organisms in Aquatic Biomes Through the advancement of technology‚ the issue of the air surrounding the earth might have been one of the most often matters to be brought up and discussed among scientists and engineers. Acid rain is one of the more serious environmental problems and it is closely related to the air pollution. Nowadays‚ it has affected large part of US‚ Europe and Canada. People start to be concerned about acid rain since it is getting worse in the passed

ChE 171 Assignment 1. Essential and Non-essential Amino acids Amino acids are organic compounds which contain both an amino group and a carboxyl group and may be divided into two groups basing on whether they are produced internally by the human body or not: essential and non-essential amino acids (hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu‚ 2012). An essential amino acid (indispensable amino acid) is an amino acid which an organism needs to ingest because it is necessary for

not only the crops of the world but the health of the world’s inhabitants. Pollution affects the world’s water supply consequently creating what is known as acid rain. The Earth’s crop supply is nourished‚ damaged would be the better word‚ by the water affected by the pollution created in big cities as well as small towns. “The effect of acid rain on plants is grave. It not only damages the root‚ but also stops its growth and brings an end to the life of a plant (Megha Tiwari)” a science blogger concludes

Acid Attack: Should the punishment be more stringent? Ways to maim or murder our women- It never gets old. Sometimes they are killed in the womb itself‚ and if they are lucky enough to survive they are doused in kerosene and set alight‚ dragged and‚ raped‚ or Acid is thrown on their faces –perhaps the worst form of torture. Acid attack results in a living death‚ a lifetime in hell on earth. The victim becomes pariah‚ outcast from the society‚ employment and sometimes from their families too.
