Before we began naming acids and bases we must understand each term. A base is a compound that produces hydroxide ions when dissolved in water. An acid is a compound that produces hydrogen ions in solution is a hydrogen-ion donor‚ or electron –paired accepter. The name of the acid depends on the ion’s ending and the number of hydrogen atoms must be equal to the negative charge‚ and the name of a base depends on if it contains OH or hydroxide. The naming of an acid depends on the suffix of the cation

EXPERIMENT 2 ACID DISSOCIATION CONSTANT OF AN INDICATOR DYE OBJECTIVES Using spectrophotometric method: determine the wavelengths at which the acid and base forms of the dye in aqueous medium exhibit maximum absorption; determine the molar absorptivities of the acid and base forms of the dye and estimate an unknown concentration of the dye in solution using the Beer-Lambert’s Law; and determine the acid dissociation constant of the indicator dye. THEORY The absorption or reflection of

Acid Rain and its Effects On Our Aquatic Ecosystems In the past century‚ one of the greatest threats to North America ’s aquatic ecosystem has been the widespread acidification of hundreds of thousands of waterways. Acid rain has effected plant and animal life within aquatic ecosystems‚ as well as microbiologic activity by affecting the rates of decomposition and the accumulation of organic matter. What causes this poisonous rain‚ and what can be done to improve North America ’s water quality

In eukaryotic cells‚ the citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion

was the reaction from the sulfate anion test between Sodium Sulfate and Barium Chloride. If the compound was in fact Sodium Sulfate it would produce a white precipitate and it did. The second reaction was first between Sodium Sulfate and Hydrochloric Acid‚ and then Silver Nitrate was added. For the compound to be confirmed‚ a white precipitate should form again‚ and it did. The next reaction started with the combination of Sodium Sulfate and Ammonia Hydroxide and

Acid-base titrations can be conducted using the above samples against standardized aqueous NaOH and standardized aqueous HCl solutions respectively. 2. Introduction: Acetic acid‚ commonly known as ethanoic acid CH3COOH‚ is found in commercial vinegar. It is a weak organic acid that gives vinegar its characteristic pungent smell‚ sour taste and slight acidity. Being an acid‚ vinegar
