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

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

Acetylsalicylic acid is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in aspirin and can be synthesized by the esterification reaction of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of an acid catalyst. An esterification reaction is when an acid is converted into an ester by combining with an alcohol and removing a water molecule. When heating the salicylic acid mixture in the warm water bath‚ the mixture should be removed from the bath within 8 minutes‚ to reduce the chance of the acetylsalicylic acid decomposing

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

Acetylsalicylic Acid September 15‚ 2005 September 23‚ 2005 OBJECTIVES The objective of this lab experiment is to prepare aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) by reacting salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. INTRODUCTION This purpose of this lab was to prepare aspirin using its basic components: salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. Salicylic acid and acetic anhydride‚ along with an acid catalyst‚ react to form acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and acetic acid. In this reaction‚ the hydroxyl group

The purpose of the Weak Acid Dissociation experiment is to determine the dissociation constant of a weak acid experimentally by using acid-base titration with a strong base and stoichiometry. An acid-base titration is a method by which a basic (or acidic) solution of unknown concentration is reacted with an acidic (or basic) solution of known concentration. (1) The pH in acid-base titration is measured using a pH meter or color changing indicator‚ such as phenolphthalein‚ as the known solution is
