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

Y ou may have heard that omega 3 fatty acids can actually play a role in the treatment and prevention of depression. Does the rumor reign true? Can consuming omega 3 fatty acids really help fight depression? This article will give you all the information you need to know on the hot topic of omega 3 fatty acids and depression. To begin‚ we will start by explaining what omega 3 fatty acids are. Omega 3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids. This means that they are vital for human health. However

Amino acid present in the lumen of the small intestine The goal is to cross through the epithelial cell membrane to enter into the epithelial cell’s cytoplasm – its charged cuz of side chains To get through the membrane the amino acid must cross the Simple columnar epithelial cells lining the apical surface of the small intestinal tract. These cells are impermeable to any harmful bacteria that may be ingested by the body‚ but permeable to necessary ions. Absorption of amino acids occurs through

which both prove the erythro-2‚3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic. Determination of the Stereochemistry of 2‚3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid. Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to determine the mechanism of the reaction of trans-cinnamic acid with the addition of bromines to 2‚3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid. An addition of bromine was added to trans-cinnamic acid and it is necessary to determine whether the intermediates were syn or anti addition or a mixture of them both to find the stereochemistry

Skrynnikov‚ 2009) Abstract The concentration of an unknown acid (HA) solution was determined by titration with a standardized solution of sodium hydroxide. The standardization of NaOH was done by titration with a solid acid sample‚ potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP)‚ and phenolphthalein

Protein and Amino Acid Supplementation in Sports The popularity of increasing the “performance-enhancing” supplements‚ Protein and amino acids‚ has flourished among all athletes. This increase is attributed to the belief by many of the athletes that it provides endurance‚ strength and speed enhancement. Amino Acids (AA) enhanced physical feats‚ improved energy and recovery sooner from fatigue. The three vital Amino Acids which were given a high focal point among athletes are leucine‚ isoleucine
