CHEM 1211 L Principles of Chemistry Lab 16 February 2004 Lab Report 1 Introduction The purpose of this project is to identify an unknown organic acid (X) by conducting various experiments to determine the acid’s unique properties. By determining selected constant properties of the unknown and then comparing these properties to the constant properties of known substances‚ it is possible to identify an unknown substance. The properties used to identify the unknown must be intensive‚ or independent

Purdue CHM 321 – Fall 2012 TA: Scott Cole Section 1 September 4‚ 2012 Unknown Concentration: X.XX ± X.XX M (@95% confidence interval) (adapted from a report prepared by N. 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

Amino acids are important building blocks; they play an essential role in the formation of proteins and as intermediates in metabolism. Amino acids can serve as cell signaling molecules and can regulate gene expression. An optimal amount of amino acids is essential for health. There are over 500 amino acids‚ however only 20 are commonly found. Amino acids all have an amine functional group and a carboxylic acid functional group. They differentiate from each other in their side chains. Only 10 of

substances containing loosely held ions which are to be exchanged with other ions in solutions which come in contact with them. These exchanges take place without any physical alterations to be the ion exchange material. Ion exchangers are insoluble acids or bases which have salts which are insoluble‚ and this enables them to exchange either positively charged ions (cations exchanges) r negatively charged one (anion exchangers). Many natural substances such as proteins‚ cellulose‚ living cells and soil

Acid-Base Titration Using a pH Meter Bradley Holloway and Jennifer Parker Period 6 April 16‚ 2013 Introduction: In chemistry‚ the ability to find molarities of acidic and basic solutions is a convenient way to convert between moles of solute and the volumes of their solutions. Through the process of titration‚ the molarity of these acids and bases can be found to a high level of precision. To begin titration‚ one solution is added to a second solution slowly until a certain point

Abandoned Acid Mine Drainage at Shoup’s Run Introduction Acid mine drainage (AMD) is an industrial waste which is the result of the extraction process of the mineral coal from the ground. It causes widespread pollution in the streams above and below the coals fields. AMD is caused when water flows through sulfur-bearing materials forming acidic solutions. It is formed when pyrite (FeS2)‚ an iron sulfide‚ is exposed and then reacts with air (O2) and water (H2O) to form sulfuric acid. 2FeS2 (s)

Task 4 – The Maintenance of the Acid – Base balance in the body (D1) pH is measured based on its acidity and alkalinity. There are many substances around the body that have different pH values. A pH of 7 is usually considered neutral‚ neither acid nor alkaline‚ this is the pH of water. In the body the acids and bases need to be in very close balance‚ this is called ‘acid base homeostasis. If it goes off too far in either direction then it could be fatal to the body. For example in the body the blood
