Scientific Background: Vinegar is an acid and there fore can be neutralised by an alkali. Acid + Alkali à salt + water Hydrochloric acid + Sodium Hydroxide à Sodium chloride + water Vinegar is a weak acid and therefore it only partially ionises in solution. CH3COOH ßà CH3COO- + H+ An alkali such as Sodium Hydroxide has a formula NaOH. If the alkali is strong then it ionises fully in solution. NaOH ßà Na+ + OH- When the acid H+ reacts with the alkali OH- the solution

lot of the time he does not show it. This comes under a very important theme of Shakespeare’s plays: appearance and reality. In every play of Shakespeare‚ there is always a character that is not what they seem to be. For example‚ in Act I‚ scene 2‚ lines 1-13‚ he gives a long speech about how sad he feels about his brother’s death (King Hamlet). “Though yet of Hamlet our dear brother death the memory be green‚ and that it us benefitted to bear our hearts in grief.” This is not

1. Two ships P and Q are moving along straight lines with constant velocities. Initially P is at a point O and the position vector of Q relative to O is (6i + 12j) km‚ where i and j are unit vectors directed due east and due north respectively. The ship P is moving with velocity 10j km h–1 and Q is moving with velocity (−8i + 6j) km h−1. At time t hours the position vectors of P and Q relative to O are p km and q km respectively. (a) (b) (c) Find p and q in terms of t. (3) Calculate the distance

Introduction For the last week‚ specific tests had to be applied to determine the unknown solid that was given out randomly. Physical tests‚ solubility test‚ characteristic tests‚ NMR spectrums‚ and IR spectrums were all utilized to distinguish the identity of the solid. These assessments and a couple additional tests will be utilized again to determine the unknown liquid that was given to us in class. The other characteristics that will be looked at will be the boiling point‚ refracted index‚ and

Determination has helped many well known brands and people become known . One of the most important keys to success is determination. There are many details‚ and aspects from texts‚ but there were three reasons that were evidenced from the articles The business of beanbags‚ Climbing Kilimanjaro‚ and The Mighty Macs that stood out. The first reason is that being motivated can benefit you in many ways. Motivation is a reason to do something‚ or take action. By being motivated‚ Lilian Wairimu Njue

Experiment 1 mass determinations Objective: The purpose of this experiment is to see the difference of precision of different balances. When doing experiments we determine the mass my measuring the sample with a balance. There are many kinds of balances that measure to different precisions. This experiment shows the different results that two balances can give. Summary of Procedures Determine the mass with the triple beam scale to the most precise measurement possible for the scale.

Practical 4 Determination Of Fruit Firmness Introduction The development of sensors to measure fruit internal quality variable is one of the challenges of post – harvest technology. Several variables can currently be measured‚ including sugar content‚ firmness and internal disorders. Fruit quality is related to both internal variables (firmness‚ sugar content‚ acid content and internal effect) and external variables (shape‚ size‚ external defects and damage). Increasing consumer demand for high
