Compleximetric Determination of Water Hardness Caindec‚ Patricia Ysabel B. Water hardness is a measure of the amount of calcium and magnesium carbonate dissolved as Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ in water. There are no health hazards associated with water hardness‚ however‚ it causes scaling‚ as well as forming of soap suds. Compleximetric titration is one of the best ways of measuring total water hardness using a standard ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution. EDTA solution is used as it has the

Introduction An atom is the smallest part of an element that can take part in a chemical change. The word “atom” comes from the Greek “atomos”‚ which means “unable to be cut”. Atomism is the philosophy of the existence of atoms. The first theories of atoms come from India. There was a Hindu sage named Kanad that hypothesized that all mater was composed of earth‚ water‚ light‚ wind‚ ether‚ time‚ space‚ mind and soul. Then another philosopher named Pakuda Katyayana suggested that everything can be

Heat of Neutralization Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to measure‚ using a calorimeter‚ the energy changes accompanying neutralization reactions. In order to measure the amount of heat produced by a reaction‚ an instrument called a calorimeter was used. The calorimeter used in this experiment was somewhat rudimentary. It was constructed as shown in the following picture: After finding the heat capacity of the calorimeter‚ the student and partner neutralized two acids and

An example of potential energy is A) a coiled spring. B) running water. C) tree branches blowing in the breeze. D) a moving elevator. E) electrical energy. Points Earned: 1.0/1.0 The correct answer is A. The definition of potential energy is an inactive type of energy that is stored for future use. All of these answers describe active energy‚ for example‚ running water is very active but can generate other types of energy. Which one of the following substances will float in gasoline

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to study a set of metals and their reactions reactions using different metals in an ordered activity series‚ the goal is to find the relative reactivity of them.Discovering why metals react with certain cations and solutions is the main point of this lab. This has many real life applications. When creating buildings‚ or bridges it is important to understand and counter-act the rusting of iron. You can do that by using the activity series. For any industry
