UNKNOWN WEAK ACID BY TITRIMETRY INTRODUCTION Acids are substances that donate hydrogen ions and bases are substances that accept hydrogen ions. Acids and bases react with each other by transferring hydrogen ions. One way to distinguish an acid is by its equivalent mass‚ which is the number of grams of the acid needed to transfer one mole of hydrogen ion to a base. For a monoprotic acid‚ which only transfers one hydrogen ion‚ its equivalent mass equals its molar mass. For a diprotic acid‚ which transfers

hydrochloric acid Theory . Introduction: Titration is a procedure used in chemistry in order to determines the molarity of an acid or a base. In the other words‚ it is also consider as acid-base neutralization reaction (Darrell D. Ebbing 1976). A chemical reaction is set up between a know volume of a solution of unknown concentration and a known volume of a solution with a known concentration. The relative acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution can be determined using the relative acid or base

ACID ATTACKS UNDER IPC : AN ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION Acid attacks are a form of violence against women‚ where the perpetrator splashes a person or object with acid in order to deface or kill them. Although acid throwing‚ also known as vitriol age‚ has been a form of violence known to be committed throughout history‚ there has been a steep rise in the cases documented in recent years‚ particularly in certain South Asian countries. Some of this increase has been attributed to better documentation

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They band together in chains to form the stuff from which your life is born. Think of amino acids as Legos for your life. It’s a two-step process: Amino acids get together and form peptides or polypeptides. It is from these groupings that proteins are made. And there’s not just one kind of amino acid. A total of 20 different kinds of amino acids form proteins. The kinds of amino acids determine the shape of the proteins formed. Commonly recognized

Abstract The bromination of trans-cinnamic acid was completed to determine dibromide’s stereochemical structure and its mechanism. After the addition of bromine to trans-cinnamic acid‚ the product was identified by its melting point and infrared spectrum resulting in erythro-2‚3-Dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid after comparing similar properties. Introduction In this lab‚ the bromination of trans-cinnamic acid was completed to determine dibromide’s stereochemical structure‚ and from there determine

The one world factors I shall be looking at this from is environment and economic. By: www.leadbatteryuniversity.uk Batteries must always be drained before they enter the recycling process. They should only be drained to a purpose built effluent treatment plant so that the acid can be treated and neutralized. Next the batteries are broken in a hammer mill

Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives Ma. Marielle M. Medura Prof. Emma Boncales Chem 23A (TTH 01:00-4:00 p.m) Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives I. Introduction Carboxylic acids is an organic compound that contains a carboxylic group(-COOH). Its general formula is R-C=OOH with R referring to the rest of the molecule such as H and C. They are directly attached to a carbonyl group and the interaction between them affects the reactions of each. The polarity of the O-H bond
