Determining the Unknown Concentration of NaHCO3 (aq) Through Titration Introduction Titration is the accurate addition of a titrant- solution in a burette- into a measured volume of a sample (Kessel‚ 2003). There are many different types of titration‚ such as acid-base reaction‚ redox reactions‚ precipitation reaction and more (Dohrman). In this lab an acid base titration will be explored. In an acid-base titration‚ the concentration of an acid or base is unknown and is determined by the adding

Lung cancer kills more people in one year than all criminal and accidental deaths combined. These statistics are shocking‚ but the good news is that people are now well-informed about the risks connected to lung cancer. They know that their risk of contracting this terrible disease decreases if they either stop smoking or do not smoke at all. Unfortunately‚ the same cannot be said about other types of cancer. Many people are not aware that their everyday behavior can lead to the development of these

Standardization and Titration of an Unknown Organic Acid Overview: Methods for counting the number of molecules in a sample is a major emphasis of laboratory work. In this experiment we will use the method of titration to count the number of acid molecules in a solution. Measuring mass is a relatively easy procedure to do in the lab (although a balance is expensive). Counting the number of particles requires more effort. Molecular counting can be done by setting an unknown amount of a substance equal to

BEHAVIOUR OF AMINO ACIDS IN SOLUTION Abstract In this practical the acid-base behaviour of amino acids was assessed. Amino acids are amphoteric. They have the basic (amine) and the acidic (carboxylic) functional groups. These show the same type of equilibrium reactions that all weak acids and bases undergo‚ and the relative amount of each can be altered by adjusting the pH of the solution. For this practical glycine was used as a model to show this unique nature of amino acids. A series of

Lab # 11 – Acid - Base Titration Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to determine the molarity (M) of an unknown HCl solution. A NaOH solution will be made and its molarity calculated. A sample of the NaOH solution will be titrated against the unknown HCl solution to calculated the volume needed to neutralize it. With these volumes the unknown molarity can be calculated. Theory: Solutions are made up of solvents and solutes. Materials known as acids when dissolved

different concentrations of sucrose solutions have an effect on the final weight for the potato tubers?” In this experiment we estimated the osmolarity of potato tuber cores by submersing different potato cores into sucrose solutions of 0.0-0.6M‚ and weighing the potato. The results showed the weight of the potato tubers had the highest percent change in weight meaning that they weighed more than the initial weight in sucrose solutions from 0.0-0.3M; it also showed that sucrose concentrations from 0

Chem 101 Section ADF Lab 4: Weak Acid Unknown Procedure: When testing the acid‚ use only between 0.2 g and 0.3 g for each trial (get as precise a measurement as you can). The general procedure is to weigh out your acid‚ dissolve it in water‚ add a couple drops of the indicator (phenolphthalein)‚ and then add the sodium hydroxide until you note a color change (from clear to pink). When the color change occurs‚ you have added enough base to completely react with the acid (the endpoint). You are allowed

form H+ and OH- ions make it very unique. The hydrogen-ion concentration of biological system is usually preferred as the pH system‚ which determines the pH level of dilute aqueous solutions. In this laboratory‚ the data collected from the experiment will be used to graph the titration curves which help to identify an unknown amino acid. IntroductionAmino acids are simple monomers which are strung together to form proteins. Amino acids play a key cellular role in structure and function. Proteins

Determine the concentration of an unknown copper (II) sulfate solution by using colorimeter Introduction: The concentration of the solution also alterations the proximity of the solution. For example‚ the more focused concentration will frame to be denser than more weakened concentration of copper (ii) sulfate. This implies there is a connection between the concentration of an solution and its absorbance. Along these lines‚ this test is set up to discover the kind of connection between the concentration
