A pH meter is an electronic instrument used to measure the pH (acidity or alkalinity) of a liquid (though special probes are sometimes used to measure the pH of semi-solid substances). A typical pH meter consists of a special measuring probe (a glass electrode) connected to an electronic meter that measures and displays the pH reading. The probe The pH probe measures pH as the activity of hydrogen ions surrounding a thin-walled glass bulb at its tip. The probe produces a small voltage (about 0

pH and Chromatography Lab Report Kevin Rivera Biology Mr. Langley 2C 10/7/13 Introduction In this lab‚ of pH and Chromatography‚ in the pH aspect of the lab we are trying to figure out the pH level of certain chemicals by writing down of known solutions to find the type of unkown solution using pH standards. In the Chromatography‚ we are trying to separate the chemicals using water and a piece of paper. Methodology Materials: Safety Goggles pH indicator & pH indicator key

The relatively close pH levels of Tap Water‚ Spring Water‚ Flavored Water‚ and Seltzer Water. Introduction This experiment was performed to investigate the following hypothesis: The following four different types of drinking water (spring water‚ seltzer water‚ tap water‚ and flavored water) we test will relatively have the same pH level. Our group decided to test different types of drinking water to see if a pH level of tap water is comparable to other types of water. Many people believe

MEASURING pH Date of Lab: 02/09/13 Date Report submitted: 02/26/13 Purpose of the experiment By doing this experiment‚ we were trying to learn how to measure a pH with a pH meter to determine whether a solution is weakly‚ moderately or strongly acidic or basic; but also to compare the different data founded to see how the addition of certain liquid to a solution may affect the pH of the initial solution. Materials We used: * Tap water‚ distilled water‚ Soda and milk as the main

The pH Scale is a scale made to show how acidic or alkaline a substance is. The pH of something is measured with pH paper which can vary from wide range paper‚ which covers all ph’s‚ but is not as accurate at some others. There are pH papers that get very specific that can have a range such as 2 or 3 and get much more precise. The neutral on the scale is 7. Anything that is below 7 is considered acidic and anything above 7 is considered alkaline. Acidic substances contain more H+ than OH-. H+

Ph Lab Report Bryon Kim 123013 B(2) Biology Background information/Research PH paper (litmus paper) determines how acidic or how basic a substance is. The paper changes color accordingly to color code on the pH scale. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The lower the number the more acidic it is. Zero is the most acidic‚ and 14 is the most basic while 7 is the neutral number for example water. Examples of an acid is lemon juice or multi purpose cleaner. Examples of a basic substance is shampoo or liquid soap

The Effect of pH on the Rate of Osmosis Using a Glucose Solution Melissa Werderitch Biology 157 11/6/06 Introduction In a journal article written by Florian Lang‚ osmosis is essentially explained as the flow of water from one area to another that are separated by a selectively permeable membrane to equalize concentrations of particles in the two locations (Lang‚ 1997). Osmosis is able to maintain osmotic pressure and regulate a cell’s volume. In a hypotonic () or hypertonic () environment

analyzing pH it measures for the acidity or basicity of a solution. pH levels vary depending on the solution. The more acidic solutions would be juices and vinegar and cleaning materials would be basic. You can determine the purpose of solutions based on their acidity and basicity. We measure the pH of solutions on a scale with levels from 1-14. These levels may change if other solutions are added‚ we can tell what the pH will be based on its colour. Solutions called buffers change the pH levels of

------------------------------------------------- COLORIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF pH ------------------------------------------------- Abstract This experiment examined the result of the various color indicators combined with different buffer solution‚ thereby testing the precision and accuracy of determining the pH value colorimetrically. Colorimetric method is a simple and practical procedure with an important advantage: they do not get out of order as from time to time do the pH-meters. Four buffers (Acetate buffer‚ phosphate

Question 1: What is the difference between a leading performance indicator and a lagging performance indicator? Why is each type important? Leading indicators are activities that should be trended as they predict the outcomes (i.e.‚ lagging indicators). Quotas or goals should only be placed on lagging indicators and never on leading indicators. Placing a goal on a leading indicator will result in gaming and generate the wrong results. Advantages: Predictive in nature and allows the organization
