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

In-arrears swap Also known as a delayed reset swap‚ an in-arrear swap is an interest rate fixed for floating swap that has its floating leg that pays at the regular payment date a rate that has just reset (usually that has reset two business day ago for Euro JPY and USD swap and that has just reset for GBP swap). In the case of swap paying every six months‚ the reset rate at the payment date would be fixed six months and two days ago in a regular swap only two days ago in the in-arrear version

THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS (pp. 94-98) Electrolytes – forms ions when dissolved in water (or certain other solvents) and thus produce solutions that conduct electricity. Strong electrolytes – ionize essentially completely Weak electrolytes – ionize only partially Solution of weak electrolyte will be a poorer conductor than a solution containing an equal concentration of a strong electrolyte Brønsted-Lowry theory Acid is a proton donor Base is a proton acceptor H2O + HNO2 H3O+ +

Effects on Soil The soil has abundant amount of various metals and minerals. When these metals come in contact with acid rain there can be some harmful chemical reactions. These reactions can lead to soil erosion. Acid rains are known to reduce the fertility of the soil‚ leaving the land barren. Harmful acids can also reduce the amount of soil micro organisms which perform important job of breaking down the dead and decayed plants and other beings. Rainfall: Acid soils are most often found in areas

REMOVAL OF WAX FROM BATIK EFFLUENT AS PRE-TREATMENT Noor Zakira binti Zulrimi Chemical Engineering Department University of Malaya 50603 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia ABSTRACT Water pollution from batik industry is a serious problem owing to the toxicity effect of wax‚ resin‚ sodium silicate and various types of dyes. Economical and efficient treatments are necessary for batik wastewater before it is discharged out. While treatment of dyes and chemicals are already available such as adsorption

The purpose of this experiment is to separate a solution of an acidic and organic compound and purify its respective acidic product through the techniques of an acid base extraction‚ recrystallization‚ and use of Melt Temp (melting point range). The reaction of an unknown acid (3-chlorobenzoic acid) with diethyl and sodium hydroxide was observed‚ and the solution naturally separated into an aqueous and organic solution. The mixture of acid and organic solution was created and then separated through

Equilibrium and Acid Base Test Review: May 2012 Things to know: 1. Explain DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM. Why does a reaction at equilibrium look like it is NOT reacting? 2. Are all reactions equilibrium reactions? What assumptions do we make when we say that a reaction does NOT take place or that it is UNIDIRECTIONAL and goes 100% to completion 3. Be able to sketch a graph of the following (assuming that you start with all reactants and no products) : a. A reaction that really doesn’t do anything

Any strong acid will release approximately - 57 kJ/mol of energy on neutralisation with strong base. This energy release is due to the formation of water molecules from the H+ ions from the acid reacting with the OH- ions from the base. H+(aq) + OH-(aq) H2O(l) When a weak acid is neutralised some of the energy is needed to dissociate the molecules to make the hydrogen ions available for neutralisation. The result is a value for neutralisation enthalpy lower than - 57 kJ/mol (numerically

Cabbage Juice Lab Purpose: To test the acidity and basicity of common household products using a premade cabbage juice indicator. Introduction Acids and bases are chemicals commonly used in the lab‚ and‚ even though we may not realize it‚ they are also found in substances we use at home on a daily basis. To test the acidity or basicity of a substance‚ we can titrate each until the endpoint is reached‚ or use an indicator. Something as simple as litmus paper can be used‚ whereby blue litmus paper
