Prior to begin the experiment‚ preparation for some solutions is required to enhance the lab performance. The solutions needed are standardized potassium bromate‚ standardized sodium thiosulfate‚ and starch indicator. First‚ to prepare a starch indicator‚ pulverize 1g of soluble starch and add 15mL of water to make it as a paste-like substance. Dilute it with about 500mL of boiling water‚ and continue to heat until the mixture becomes clear. Cool it to room temperature and save it into a stoppered

Lab 4. Volumetric Determination of Impure Sodium Carbonate (Na2CO3) Introduction: To determine the total amount of carbonate in unrefined sodium carbonate‚ soda ash‚ a titration is done using a standardized solution of HCl. Aqueous HCl is a strong acid and therefore almost completely disassociates into H+ and CL-. Therefore‚ when HCl is used in a titration‚ the H+ is the titrant. Carbonate in aqueous solution is able to accept a proton‚ i.e. it acts as a base. When carbonate accepts the H+ a bicarbonate

Case 13 Reducing Fertility in Bangladesh Geographic area: Bangladesh Health condition: in the mid-970s‚ a Bangladeshi woman had more than six children on average. in combination with poor nutrition and lack of access to quality health services‚ this high fertility rate jeopardized the health of both the woman and her children. Beyond the health impact‚ high fertility and rapid population growth represented a major constraint to the country’s economic development and social progress. Global importance

uncertainty reduction theory from its origin to date. Ever since uncertainty reduction theory was first created‚ many researchers have examined it by comparing it with other theories. Uncertainty reduction theory had been tested across different cultures in order to confirm its generalizability. It had also been applied to real life situations to examine how individuals interact in their initial encounters with strangers. In addition‚ researchers suggested testing uncertainty reduction theory beyond

Similar to potassium‚ sodium is a major mineral‚ however‚ unlike potassium which maintains fluid and electrolyte balance inside the cell‚ sodium is a major part of the body’s fluid and electrolyte balance system because it is the chief ion used to maintain the volume of fluid outside cells. Sodium also helps maintain acid-base balance and is essential to muscle contraction and nerve transmission. The DRI recommended intakes for sodium for adults ages 19 to 50 years old is 1‚500 milligrams per day
