Purpose The purpose of the lab is to determine the mass of the ‘active ingredient’ in a commercial ASA tablet. ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- Introduction There are three main theories surrounding acids and bases including the Arrhenius‚ Bronsted-Lowry‚ and Lewis theories. The Arrhenius theory of acids and bases states that acids produce hydrogen ions (H+) in solution while bases produce hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution. Arrhenius

Laboratory No 4 Electrical Systems 100 AC CIRCUITS INTRODUCTION The purpose of this laboratory test was to make comparisons between theoretical and practical results and to develop a greater understanding of factors affecting the operation of complex AC networks. SUMMARY OF RESULTS The error in the results ranges from 0.02% to 22.63% and the phase angle errors ranged from 0.02° to 17.27°. This suggests that part of our results were very accurate (series parallel RC network) and the rest

believe that if the amount of sodium citrate is too low or too high‚ the sodium alginate solution would not form into a ball. The recommended amount of sodium citrate to be added to the sodium alginate solution was ⅛ teaspoon‚ or 0.5 grams. We supposed that if we exceeded this measurement‚ the sodium citrate would unbalance the whole solution‚ making the balls deform. If we added too little of the sodium citrate‚ we thought that there would be too little for the sodium citrate to fully do its job of

Also known as "benzoate of soda‚" sodium benzoate is an FDA-approved‚ polyunsaturated fat that has been used by food manufacturers for over 80 years to inhibit microbial growth. As a food additive it is used as a preservative‚ effectively killing most yeasts‚ bacteria and fungi. Sodium benzoate is effective only in acidic conditions (pH < 3.6) making its use most prevalent in foods such as preserves‚ salad dressings (vinegar)‚ carbonated drinks (carbonic acid)‚ jams (citric acid)‚ fruit juices (citric

the effect of concentration of thiosulphate on the rate of reaction between sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid. Introduction: Word Equation for the reaction: Balanced Symbol Equation for the reaction: Observations during the reaction: • A yellow precipitate of Sulphur starts to form and the reaction mixture goes cloudy. • A colourless‚ poisonous gas of sulphur dioxide is given off. • Sodium Chloride (salt) and Water also form. The salt dissolves in the solution‚ and

quickly. One chemical that is made industrially is sodium thiosulfate. Sodium thiosulfate solution is sold in a range of concentrations. Dilute solutions of sodium thiosulfate can be used for cleaning contact lenses and used as a medicine for some cancer patients. Concentrated solutions are used to treat spillages of some chemicals. Sodium thiosulfate is safe to handle and store‚ but if it is mixed with an acid‚ a reaction happens. When dilute sodium thiosulfate is mixed with an acid‚ solid sulphur

Sodium borohydride Reduction of Benzil Introduction: The Purpose of this experiment is for the students to learn how to use sodium borohydride to reduce benzil to its secondary alcohol product via reduction reaction. This two-step reaction reduces aldehydes by hydrides to primary alcohols‚ and ketones to secondary alcohols. In order for the reaction to occur and to better control the stereochemistry and yield of the product‚ the metal hydride nucleophile of the reducing agents such as LiH‚ LiAlH4

Anhydrous sodium sulfate was added to the filtered organic solution to absorb excess water. Although water has a higher affinity towards sodium sulfate than cyclohexanol‚ excess anhydrous sodium sulfate may lead to the absorption of cyclohexane and thus loss of product. Anhydrous sodium sulfate absorbs water due to its polarity and therefore may also absorb cyclohexanol because of its polar O-H bond. If too much anhydrous sodium sulfate was added to the solution‚ part of the product would be absorbed
