The purpose of this experiment was to observe the hypothesized correlation between ionic strength and degree of ionization of a weak acid‚ while determining the factors that would impact the degree of ionization using measurements of pH. It was initially required to prepare standard 20-mL solutions of varying concentration of acetic acid for use in the rest of the experiment. One solution of CH3COOH was supposedly developed to be 2.00M‚ however it is highly possible that the solutions of CH3COOH

Calculating the break-even point To avoid making a loss every business must at least break-even by achieving a level of sales that covers its total costs. But what level of sales is necessary to break-even? To explore the concept of break-even‚ we need to define some basic terms: Fixed costs: Costs that do not vary with output or sales e.g. managers salaries‚ rent and rates on business premises.
