is not in the normal blood pH‚ the person can fall sick and it might be harm to the person. The maintenance of blood pH is called acid-base homeostasis. Acid-base homeostasis is a complex synergy that involving lungs‚ kidneys and a buffer chemical in blood and blood cells. BACKGROUND A substance that has high concentration of hydrogen ion in solution is called acid and solution that has low concentration of hydrogen ion is base. Base

INTRODUCTION Lactic Acid is an organic compound with the formula CH3CH (OH) COOH. Lactic is one of the types of fermentation which occur under anaerobic respiration to produce ATP without the use of oxygen. Anaerobic respiration takes place in certain prokaryotic organisms that have an Electron Transport Chain (ETC) but do not use oxygen as a final electron acceptor at the end of the chain (Campbell et all‚ 2015) different with the aerobic respiration which use oxygen to produce ATP and its final

4 Titration Curve of an Amino Acid pH Simple amino acid Acidic amino acid Basic amino acid 7 OH- equivalents Objectives: A) To determine the titration curve for an amino acid and B) to use this curve to estimate the pKa values of the ionizable groups of the amino acid and the amino acid’s pI. Introduction: A titration curve of an amino acid is a plot of the pH of a weak acid against the degree of neutralization of the acid by standard (strong) base. Consider the ionization

Carboxylic acids are compounds which contain a carboxyl group‚ -COOH group‚ where the -COOH group is attached either to a hydrogen atom or to an alkyl group. One of the example of carboxylic acid is benzoic acid( benzene carboxylic acid) which has a benzene connected to the carboxyl carboxyl group‚ -COOH group. It has a formula of C6H5COOH. The carbon atom of a carboxyl group has a high oxidation state. Therefore‚ that many of the chemical reactions used for their preparation are oxidations. In

The type of acid was clearly controlled in the method. It clearly states that hydrochloric acid is representing the digestive chemical whilst the antacid tablets represent the food being digested. It is evident that the hydrochloric acid was the acid used in all aspects of this experiment successfully controlling this variable. It is not certain whether the amount of acid was controlled throughout the experiment. This is because the amount of acid was not clearly outlined neither

Titration Lab of NaOH and KHP Aim: To titrate Sodium Hydroxide with Potassium Hydrogen Phthalate . To also determine the concentration of NaOH in the KHP solution. Hypothesis: When KHP is added to the solution of NaOH and the indicator‚ the solution will turn clear and neutralize. The concentration of NaOH is going to be very low because it is diluted. Materials required: pipette filler‚ volumetric flasks(2-4)‚ beakers(2)‚small white piece of paper‚ indicator( 2 drops)‚ conical flask‚ clamp

Standardization of hydrochloric acid by sodium carbonate Concentrated hydrochloric acid is roughly 11 M. Pour out into a measuring cylinder about 2 cm3 of concentrated hydrochloric acid. Transfer it to a 250 cm3 flask and make up to the mark with water. Shake well. Put some pure sodium hydrogen carbonate or anhydrous sodium carbonate into an evaporating dish and heat gently over a low flame for about fifteen minutes‚ stirring continuously. Take care not to heat the mass too strongly or fusion

Volumetric Analysis The Titration of Acids and Bases Purpose This experiment will allow you to gain practical experience in the preparing standard solutions‚ using a pipette and a buret‚ and performing standard titrations. You will use this experience to experimentally determine the concentration of acetic acid in an unknown solution. There are three parts to this experiment‚ they are 1. Preparation a standard solution of oxalic acid (~0.07 M) 2. Preparation a sodium hydroxide solution
