Acid Determination of Vitamin C Tablets and Salt Solutions Chem 1290-016 03-05-2010 ------------------------------------------------- Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to use acid-base titrations to find the mass percent of ascorbic acid in a Vitamin C tablet. A known concentration of sodium hydroxide was used and the value found was compared to the stated amount of ascorbic acid listed on the vitamin container. Also in this lab the acidity of different salt solutions were tested using

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

will become positively charged. Electric charges can be characterized by repulsion between two positive charges or two negative charges‚ and can also be attraction between a positive charge and a negative charge. In this experiment‚ we were able to determine the presence of electrostatic charges with the use of an electroscope. It is performed by using three different kinds of rod (plastic‚ glass‚ and PVC)‚ each rubbed with silk cloth‚ flannel cloth‚ and fur cloth. The observations we have done brought

The reaction order‚ based on the rate law‚ was first order with respect to crystal violet and second order with respect to OH-. The rate law was as follows: Rate law = k [CV]1[OH-]1 where k equaled 2.61. In order to determine the reaction order with respect to crystal violet‚ the graph that described the relationship between ln[CV] and time (seconds) was Figure 2. Not only did Figure 2 generate a more linear relationship‚ but it had the highest R2 value of 0.992 than ([CV] versus time) and ([1/CV]

The Cold War conflict determine President Kennedy’s foreign policy by developing a new generation with his visionary and his say. Since The Eisenhower’s movement was slow moving over the years. The war against Communism also known as the cold war generated revenue and created jobs that contributed to the economical success in the 60s. John F. Kennedy was this well liked man‚ he went into office in 1960s‚ and he was known to be the “New Generation of Americans”. He wanted to be begin to build up

Sulfuric Acid is one of the the important chemical compounds. A Great amount of sulfur is mined all around the world and is used to produce sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acids being produced Sulfuric acid may seem like something to find in a lab‚ perhaps under the label “corrosive‚” and in some kind of tube that isn’t affected by it. But‚ in reality‚ it’s quite common‚ and is used often in the industrial business‚ for many different objects. Because of this‚ many places can often be judged upon their

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

What determines the perceived brightness of objects? Luminance is a physical and objective measure of the intensity of light. The sensation elicited by different luminances is called brightness. However brightness is a subjective measure as it is the perceived amount of light emanating from an object. It may seem logical to expect that luminance and brightness are directly proportional and that two objects that reflect the same amount of physical light into the eye will look the same brightness

description on acid rain as well as a focus on acid rain in eastern Canada. This report contains a very helpful basic background on acid rain as well as a questionnaire. It involves an annual report on the Federal-Provincial Agreements‚ sulphur dioxide emissions in the seven most eastern provinces‚ trends in acid deposition in the Atlantic provinces from 1980-1994‚ as well as acid precipitation in Kejimkujik‚ Nova Scotia. It also includes data tables‚ graphs and interesting facts concerning acid rain.
