10.1 COMMON ACIDS and ALKALIS in DAILY LIFE A. ACIDS 1) In our daily life‚ there are many foods‚ drinks and flavourings that taste sour. e.g. yoghurt’ lemons and vinegar. 2) They taste sour because they contain acids‚ which give the sour taste. e.g. Yoghurt contains lactic acid. Lemons contain citric acid. Vinegar contains ethanoic acid. 3) Many household cleaners and personal care products also contain acids. e.g. Toilet bowl cleaners contain hydrochloric acid. Some body lotions

Task 4 – The Maintenance of the Acid – Base balance in the body (D1) pH is measured based on its acidity and alkalinity. There are many substances around the body that have different pH values. A pH of 7 is usually considered neutral‚ neither acid nor alkaline‚ this is the pH of water. In the body the acids and bases need to be in very close balance‚ this is called ‘acid base homeostasis. If it goes off too far in either direction then it could be fatal to the body. For example in the body the blood

Lab 1: Acid/Base Properties of an Antimicrobial Agent 09/03/13 Purpose The purpose was to determine the acid and base properties of the antimicrobial agent sodium benzoate. Theory Sodium has mainly been used in food processing to avoid growth of bacteria and harmful microorganisms. It is commonly used to preserve foods and beverages that have an acidic pH. Rather than benzoic acid‚ sodium benzoate is used because it is generally soluble in most aqueous solutions but benzoic acid is not

Science C.A.T Year 9 2014 Advanced by Sara Hamilton 9H Testing Vinegar – Acid Base Titration Aim The aim of this practical experiment was to pair up and measure the concentration of the acid in three different brands of vinegar. We added a base liquid‚ to the three different brands of vinegar until a neutralization reaction occurred. We conducted the experiment using the titration method. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the vinegar that will have the highest acidic level will be Cornwell’s

Acids vs Bases In chemistry‚ when some elements are mixed‚ the compounds that are formed can be classified depending on its characteristics‚ just like acids and bases. Acids are defined as compounds that donate a hydrogen ion‚ H+‚ to another compound. Bases are the chemical opposite of acids. They both are different in many ways. One way in which acids and bases differ is the pH and the pOH. The pH is a number used to denote the hydrogen-ion concentration‚ or the acidity‚ of a solution. In the

Experiment 5 The Quantitative Determination of an Acid in Carbonated Beverages Thomas Canfield Kelly Caddell Chemistry 144B T.A. Brock Marvin 15 October 2012 Methods: Two sodas containing citric acid were investigated in this experiment. Each soda was titrated using one of the two experimental methods. These methods are the traditional titration and the modern titration. Carbonic acid was already removed from the soda by boiling it. Both of the two different titration methods

Chem&163 Lab Report 1 Analysis of Acids‚ Bases‚ pH and Salt Purpose: Explore various methods for determining the characteristics of acid/base solution. The goal of this experiment include the investigation of various acid/base indicators‚ calculating the change of pH with concentration‚ change of pH due to the addition of salt and different between strong and weak acids/bases. Safety and Disposal: Use extreme caution when handling concentrated acids and bases. Dispose of all solutions as
