Acids and Bases Are Everywhere Every liquid you see will probably have either acidic or basic traits. Water (H2O) can be both an acid and a base‚ depending on how you look at it. It can be considered an acid in some reactions and a base in others. Water can even react with itself to form acids and bases. It happens in really small amounts‚ so it won’t change your experiments at all. It goes like this: 2H2O --> H2O + H+ + OH- --> H3O+ + OH- See how the hydrogen ion was transferred? Most of the

Acid-Base Titrations February 21‚ 2013 Abstract: With the given volume measurement of KHP and NaOH‚ the students experimented to calculate the mass of unknown acid and its equivalence point using a method called titration and titration curve. The known volume of an acid solution would be titrated by slowly adding drops of solution into NaOH‚ and the volume of base needed to react with the acid is measured throughout. By using those data‚ the students are able to find what they

Every solution has either has an acid or basic trait. The acid or basic trait in a solution are called pH level. pH is a scale that is used to determine if solution is acidic ‚basic‚ or neutral. During Living Environment class‚ we conducted a experiment that allowed us to measure the pH levels of 3 solutions. We were split into groups and each person had to bring a household solution from around the house. There certain materials that were needed to conduct the experiment .The following

menace. Because of pollution in the air‚ acid gases from factories‚ cars and homes‚ the rain is becoming dangerous for the life of every living creature. This rain is known as ’acid rain’. WHAT IS ACID RAIN? Acid gases are produced when fossil fuels like coal and oil are burned in power stations‚ factories and in our own homes. Most of these acid gases are blown into the sky‚ and when

Acid Rain Webquest Name: ________Jacob Rough_________________________ Date: _____3/25/13________ Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are gases released by the burning of fossil fuels. These gases can react with water and oxygen to form acids. Normally‚ rainwater is slightly acidic. But the additional acid that enters the air when fuels are burned makes it even more acidic. Acid rain can have a harmful effect on fish and other wildlife and upsets the delicate balance

considered that rain is acid? = The pH scale measures how acidic an object is‚ when pH is lower than 7 rain is considered acid. b) Which are the compounds that in contact with water origin acid rain? = Compounds like sulfur sulphuric and nitric acids. c) Which are the principal causes of these compounds? = The extra acidity in rain comes from the reaction of primary air pollutants‚ primarily sulphur oxides and nitrogen oxides‚ with water in the air to form strong acids. The main sources of

What is acetylsalicylic acid? Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)‚ or more commonly known as aspirin‚ is a medication that can be used for pain‚ fevers‚ and inflammation. It can be used for long periods of time‚ in small amounts‚ to prevent heart attacks‚ strokes and the formation of blood clots. A heart attack victim can be given a low dose right after the ordeal to reduce the risk of another one. Side effects of this drug is ulcers‚ internal bleeding (stomach) and ringing in the ears. These mainly happen

The difference in the structure leads to amajor change in reactivity. The reactions of thesegroups of compounds involve nucleophilicsubstitution. Although there are abundant kindsof carboxylic acid derivatives‚ the experimentonly
