Worksheet - Acids‚ Bases and Salts 1. I am pure water. When heated my pH (increases‚ decreases)‚ because more of my water molecules dissociate. 2. I am a 0.020 M solution of weak acid‚ HA. If I only dissociate to the extent of 1.50%‚ what is the value of my Ka? 3. I am a 0.20 M solution of hydrocyanic acid‚ HCN‚ with a Ka of 4.93 x 10¯ 10 . What is my pH? 4. I am a buffer made from 0.10 M acetic acid and 0.15 M sodium acetate. If the Ka for acetic acid is 1.77 x 10¯ 5 ‚ what is my pH? 5. I am

Acid rain is rain that has become acidic‚ because of air pollutants in the atmosphere. Rain has a normal pH level of around 5-5.5 which is only slightly acidic. 7 on the pH scale is the neutral and anything below that is considered acidic. Acid rain has a pH level around 4 which is 10 times more acidic. Acid rain can fall in many different ways and has many effects on the environment. Acid rain is caused by air pollutants in the atmosphere. These air pollutants are mainly from man made resources

Introduction: The theory behind the extraction of a solution containing benzoic acid‚ cellulose‚ and methyl orange involves many components pertaining to the fundamental ideas of solubility and polarity. Using the concepts of like dissolving like and acid base reactions‚ a solution of organic acid (benzoic acid)‚ a water soluble compound cellulose‚ and an organic soluble compound methyl orange‚ can be separated and benzoic acid can be isolated by a method of extraction. At the fundamental level‚

This paper is an analysis conducted on Nucleic Acids through a variety of tests specifically‚ Dische‚ Murexide‚ Wheeler-Johnson and Phosphate Tests in order to exemplify structural features of nucleic acids as well as identify the principle involved in each chemical test. Different procedures and different test compounds were applied‚ and results were noted as for changes in colors of precipitates or solutions. For Dische Test‚ light blue was obtained for RNA and dark violet for DNA. For Murexide

Titration Lab How Much Citric Acid is in Your Soda? PURPOSE To determine the molarity (concentration) of citric acid (H3C6H5O7) in various different citrus flavored sodas. BACKGROUND PRINCIPLES Popular sodas all strive for a somewhat sour (’tart’) flavor and manufacturers utilize acids to impart this taste. While there are a vast variety of different brands of sodas on the market‚ they can be broken into two main categories: dark or clear. This differentiation is not only a simple color

Fatty acids and glycerol are the sub unit of most lipids. In the synthesis of a fat or oil three fatty acid molecules combine with one molecule of glycerol to form a triglyceride. Triglycerides make up about 95% of all dietary fats. This is formed by condensation (water is lost). Triglycerides are the chemical form in which most fat exists in food as well as in the body. They’re also present in blood plasma and‚ in association with cholesterol‚ form the plasma lipids. Fig 1.0 shows

Titration Lab A Titration is a process of the concentration of one solution being determined by its reaction with either a standard solution or a known quantity of solid dissolved in solution. It may also be used to calculate the molar mass of an unknown acid or base. Purpose: I. Prepare a standard solution of sodium hydroxide II. Standardize a sodium hydroxide solution by using potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) III. When given whether the acid is monoprotic‚ diprotic‚ or triprotic ‚ determine

9.1 Sulphuric Acid Sulphuric Acid is Manufactured in Industry 1. Sulphuric acid‚ H2SO4 is manufactured in industry through Contact Process. 2. The raw materials used are sulphur‚ air and water 3. The Contact process consists of three stages. Stage 1: The production of sulphur dioxide This can be obtained by two methods: 1. Burning of sulphur in dry air in the furnace S + O SO2 2. Burning of metal sulphide such as zinc sulphide or iron(III) sulphide in dry air. 2ZnS
