Acid-Base Titration Pre-Lab Discussion In the chemistry laboratory‚ it is sometimes necessary to experimentally determine the concentration of an acid solution or a base solution. A procedure for making this kind of determination is called an acid-base titration. In this procedure‚ a solution of known concentration‚ called the standard solution‚ is used to neutralize a precisely measured volume of the solution of unknown concentration to which one or two drops of an appropriate acid-base

INTRODUCTION: In atomic spectroscopy the samples are vaporized at 2000-8000k. The process of this involves two steps ‚ one is atomization of sample and the other is absorption of light radiation from light source. The atoms in the vapour are measured by absorption or emission at characteristic wave lengths. The main usage of this was to detect one element from another in the complex sample which has taken ie.‚ it has ability to perform multiple element analyses. Absorbance should obey Beer’s law

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF MICROWAVE HEATING OF FOOD By M . SHIVA KUMAR ( 04AG1008 ) Under the guidance of PROF. SURESH PRASAD ABSTRACT • The use of microwaves in the food industry is attributed to the lower time needed to increase the temperature of foodstuffs compared to the traditional heating methods. •However‚ the heating is not uniform and the products show hot and cold spots. • In order to analyze the behaviour of foods heated by microwave oven‚ a mathematical method was developed

INTRODUCTION This experiment will introduce you to the analytical method of volumetric titration. This method is a quantitative analysis of liquid or solution by comparing the volumes that react with known values of standard chemical solution. Solid sodium hydroxide is hygroscopic‚ which means that it absorbs moisture from the

investigate the validity of the Bernoulli equation‚ the static pressure is taken at each tapping and the total head is determined for the maximum difference setting. The velocity head is calculated using the Bernoulli equation. To calculate Cd‚ the volumetric flow rate is measured for the maximum and minimum settings and for eight intermediate values. From the experimental analysis‚ it can be deduced that the total head does not remain constant due to frictional losses and experimental errors and thus

Procedure: I used a variety of scientific tools such as; a ruler‚ beaker‚ graduated cylinder‚ volumetric flask‚ thermometer‚ burner‚ and digital scale to find unknown values of measurements for each of the indicated items and solutions. Then I used those measurements to further convert to another unit of measurement or calculate a new
