Amino acids are important building blocks; they play an essential role in the formation of proteins and as intermediates in metabolism. Amino acids can serve as cell signaling molecules and can regulate gene expression. An optimal amount of amino acids is essential for health. There are over 500 amino acids‚ however only 20 are commonly found. Amino acids all have an amine functional group and a carboxylic acid functional group. They differentiate from each other in their side chains. Only 10 of

are several purposes to the amino acid lab experiment. One reason is to help us understand the concept of acids and bases and how they interact with one another. Another purpose is to understand what occurs when placed with the existence of buffers. Lastly‚ the experiment is to help us understand the applications of titrations and how it can be used in a real world setting‚ in this case‚ the identification of an amino acid. One must understand that amino acids all have special characteristics

D Biology Procedure- see attached Data and Results- see attached Theory- PH stands for the power of hydrogen. People refer to the pH scale as a tool for finding out if a substance is acidic‚ basic‚ or neutral. This scale goes from zero to fourteen. The number seven is neutral. Any number higher than seven on this scale is basic. Any number lower is acidic

ACID BASE TITRATION OBJECTIVES 1. To demonstrate the basic laboratory technique of titration 2. To learn to calculate molarity based on titrations INTRODUCTION Molarity (M) or molar concentration is a common unit for expressing the concentration of solutions. It is defined as the number of moles of solute per liter of solution (or millimoles of solute per milliliter of solution). The concentration of a basic solution can be determined by titrating it with a volume of a standard acid solution (of
