fatty acid chains (carboxylic-acids). These undergo a condensation reaction to form a triglyceride-molecule and the by-product‚ three molecules of water [1]. The general structure of triglyceride can be presented below: Where R‚ R’ and R’’ represent particular carbon fatty acid chains. The fatty acid composition is the most important characteristic of the triglyceride. The physical and chemical properties of particular triglycerides depend on the nature and arrangement of these fatty acid residues

Acid-Base Titrations February 21‚ 2013 Abstract: With the given volume measurement of KHP and NaOH‚ the students experimented to calculate the mass of unknown acid and its equivalence point using a method called titration and titration curve. The known volume of an acid solution would be titrated by slowly adding drops of solution into NaOH‚ and the volume of base needed to react with the acid is measured throughout. By using those data‚ the students are able to find what they

ACID RAIN Acidified particulate matter in the atmosphere that is deposited by precipitation on to a surface‚ often eroding the surface away. This precipitation generally has a pH less than 5and some times much lower depending upon the concentration of acidic components. Acidic deposition principally by the pollutant gases such as sulphur dioxide (so2) and the nitrogen oxides cause acidic deposition. The burning of fossil fuels‚ such as coal‚ forms Sulphur dioxide. that contain high quantities of

For my project‚ I had to create my own acid-base indicator and find out what happens when it is placed in an acidic solution (vinegar) and a basic solution (dissolved baking soda). I chose my indicator to be a fruit because fruits can be very effective at determining how acidic or basic a substance is. My fruit was a blueberry‚ but I couldn’t use raw blueberries because it’s not going to give me the best results. I had to make blueberry juice. I did this by placing several blueberries in a blender

air or be left in the ash of the burnt battery. By draining and neutralising acid from the batteries and recycling them our problem is solved. The one world factors I shall be looking at this from is environment and economic. By: www.leadbatteryuniversity.uk Batteries must always be drained before they enter the recycling process. They should only be drained to a purpose built effluent treatment plant so that the acid can be treated and neutralized. Next the batteries are broken in a hammer mill

ACID / BASE BUFFER SYSTEMS Abstract A buffer solution is a solution that contains both an acid and a salt containing the conjugate base / acid in sufficient concentrations so as to maintain a relatively constant pH when either acid or base is added. In this experiment a selection of buffer solutions (Bicarbonate/carbonic acid)‚ Lake water and distilled water were obtained to compare their buffering behaviours when mixed both with an acid and a base. The results showed buffering capacities for

H2SO3 Sulfurous acid is the chemical compound with the formula H2SO3. H2SO3 is a clear‚ colorless liquid with a sulfurous odor. It is a weak acid that is formed when sulfur dioxide is dissolved in water. Sulfurous acid is used as a bleaching and chemical reducing agent that is often used in medicine‚ throat and nasal sprays and skin lotions. Antiseptics‚ anti-fermentative‚ and antizymotics include sulfites that are formed from the acid. This compound is only stable in aqueous solutions‚ and

Chemistry A Rap 1 4/6/12 Acid and Base Report If someone were to ask the common teenager in the US‚ “What’s acid?” they would probably respond with something akin to “It’s that one drug that makes you see stuff that isn’t really there and just kinda makes you crazy”. And if that same someone was to ask that same teenager‚ “What’s a base?” their response would most likely have something to do with either baseball‚ or freeze-tag. The thing is‚ most people don’t really understand the most common
