Determination of pKa James McDuffie ABSTRACT: In this lab‚ the pKa of unknown solution #4 was measured Introduction: This lab focused on the equilibrium constant‚ Ka. Ka is associated with chemical properties of acids. The equivalence point will be reached once the moles of OH- equal the moles of HA and once this point is reached‚ the PH changes very quickly. With the results‚ a titration curve should be produced. Experimental Section Materials and Methods: A buret with NaOH solution

Experiment 1 mass determinations Objective: The purpose of this experiment is to see the difference of precision of different balances. When doing experiments we determine the mass my measuring the sample with a balance. There are many kinds of balances that measure to different precisions. This experiment shows the different results that two balances can give. Summary of Procedures Determine the mass with the triple beam scale to the most precise measurement possible for the scale.
