acetic acid present in commercial vinegar and the weight-to-volume percent of ammonia present in window cleaners. Acid-base titrations can be conducted using the above samples against standardized aqueous NaOH and standardized aqueous HCl solutions respectively. 2. Introduction: Acetic acid‚ commonly known as ethanoic acid CH3COOH‚ is found in commercial vinegar. It is a weak organic acid that gives vinegar its characteristic pungent smell‚ sour taste and slight acidity. Being an acid‚ vinegar

Reacting Acids and Bases Lab Report Introduction Every liquid‚ except for distilled water‚ has either acidic or basic traits. An acid is sour tasting‚ and gives a sharp stinging pain in a cut or wound‚ and bases taste bitter‚ and feel slippery. A pH scale is used to determine what traits a liquid has; acidic or basic. The scale focuses on OH- (hydroxide ions) and H+ (hydrogen ions). The scale goes from 0 to 14. 7 is distilled water‚ as it is directly in the middle; neither acidic or basic. Acids are

Acids‚ Bases‚ and pH Lab In this lab the testing of whether or not a substance was an acid or a base occurred. Each substance was tested with the indicators red litmus paper‚ blue litmus paper‚ pH paper‚ phenolthalein‚ bromthymol blue‚ and phenol red. While the substances were tested the group noticed that the substances tested with the red and blue litmus paper‚ the phenolthatein‚ bronthmol blue were the easiest to interpret. The color changes that occurred when this indicator was put into a substance

Ammonia and Hydrochloric Acid Lab Chemistry 1 Abstract The straw should be cut shorter to 8 cm in order to make the solid ring appear in the center of the straw. We achieved our goal‚ cutting the straw caused the gases to not have to go as far‚ and meet in the middle. Background The particles in a gas are very loose and tend to move around a lot very quickly. The particles in a solid are very compact and vibrate but don’t really move very much. The particles in a liquid however are more

EXPERIMENT 3: INTRODUCTION TO TITRATION – DETERMINATION OF THE MOLARITY AND CONCENTRATION OF SULPHURIC ACID BY TITRATION WITH A STANDARD SOLUTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE INTRODUCTION Reaction of acid and base is one of the most common reaction in chemistry. This reaction is also widely known as neutralization. In this experiment‚ we used titration technique which involves accurately measuring the volume of a solution required to react with another reagent. An indicator must be used to determine the

To determine if the reaction had gone to completion‚ a Starch/Iodine test was conducted. A change in the strip to a deep blue color would signal an excess of sodium hypochlorite reagent present. An excess is the reagent symbolizes the end of the reaction because there is no longer any reactant left to consume reagent. After the reaction was deemed completed‚ the product was isolated and purified by ether extraction‚ aqueous extraction and evaporation. To determine how sodium hypochlorite acts as

1.0 Aim The purpose of this experiment is to use Volumetric Analysis to determine the concentration of acetic acid in white vinegar. 2.0 Theory The concentration is a measurement of relative amounts of solute and solvent. There are many diverse ways of expressing concentration but the most accepted and widely used is molar concentration and regularly referred to as molarity which is defined in mole‚ the amount of solute dissolved in one litre of solution.

Chamberlin Date: 29 April 2017 Experiment Title: Acid-Base Titration Abstract: Vinegar is a common household item containing acetic acid as well as some other chemicals. This experiment is designed to determine the molar concentration of acetic acid in a sample of vinegar by titrating it with a standard solution of NaOH. CH3COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) -> CH3COONa(aq) + H2O(l) By adding the sodium hydroxide‚ which is a basic solution‚ to the acetic acid‚ which is an acidic solution‚ a neutralization
