Barilla Case Study 1. What are the reasons for the increase in variability in Barilla’s supply chain? The supply chain of Barilla is highly variable because of a number of reasons. One of the major reasons is the fact that the distribution network for the firm is complicated because of the involvement of middlemen who make the supply chain longer and complex. In order to have adequate supplies‚ the firm depends on forecasting models‚ which are improper‚ rather than depending on the distributors

Experiment Acids‚ Bases‚ and Neutrals Problem Are common house-hold products pH balanced and neutral? Information Gathered pH measures how acidic or alkaline a solution is. The pH scale ranges from 0-14. Solutions that range from 0-6 are considered to be acidic. Solutions that are on the acidic end of the scale are low in pH‚ high in hydrogen ion‚ and low in hydroxyl ions. An acid has a sour taste‚ hence‚ will react to metal and will be corrosive; therefore‚ they are considered as an electrolyte
