Advantages: Sulfamic acid is the fastest de-scaler - It dissociates into hydroxonium ions more readily in aqueous solution than the others‚ therefore giving a greater concentration of atoms that are able to react with the calcium in lime scale. It is safe to use because it does not produce chlorine gas [5]‚ which can be toxic. Sulfamic acid also has a low volatility. Disadvantages: Sulfamic Acid can be an irritant to eyes or skin and is the most expensive of the de-scalers. Q2) How these de-scalers

Formic acid is known to be the simplest carboxylic acid‚ and it is an important factor in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally. The chemical formula for Formic Acid is CH202‚ and is mostly found in the venom of bee and ant stings. Formic acid is clear and colorless with a pungent odor. Formic acid is used in many ways; Formic acid is used to preserve livestock. It is also sprayed on animal food and fresh hay to reduce the decay rate. It can also be used as a pesticide to protect bee

Amino Acids Glycine is the smallest of the amino acids. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. In aqueous solution at or near neutral pH‚ glycine will exist predominantly as the zwitterion. Alanine is a hydrophobic molecule. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. The α carbon of alanine is optically active; in proteins‚ only the L-isomer is found. Serine differs from alanine in that one of the methylenic

effect of citric and buffered lactic acids on the flavour of hard-boiled sweets and the effect of acids on various flavours in high temperature applications. Introduction Materials and Methods An amount of water‚ sugar and glucose syrup of 30g‚ 100g and 70g were weighed respectively into a stainless steel pot. The mixture was then heated and removed immediately from the induction cooker after reaching the desired temperature of 145˚C. Flavours of 0.51g and acid of 1.20g was added immediately afterwards

Introduction: In this lab‚ we measured the acid-base strengths of seven separate organic compounds. The lab was painless to perform‚ it consisted of adding a small amount of one of the organic compounds to a well‚ and testing the pH via testing paper. The color of the paper was then analyzed to determine what the pH of the compound was. The structures were benzenesulfonic acid‚ benzoic acid‚ benzyl alcohol‚ benzylamine‚ p-cresol‚ and p-toluidine. My initial hypothesis about the acidity/basicity

Chemistry Research Paper What is an anti acid? According to Cindy Quarters (2010)‚ “Antacids are medicines that are taken orally to help relieve sour stomach‚ heartburn‚ or acid indigestion”. This medicine is available without prescription but it is needed to take the correct dose. The different types of anti acids include calcium carbonate‚ sodium bicarbonate‚ magnesium hydroxide‚ aluminum hydroxide‚ and dihydroxyaluminum sodium carbonate. The cost of the anti acid will depend on how effective it is‚

Is there really such a thing as rain with acid in it? Yes‚ acid rain is a very real phenomenon worldwide‚ and it’s been documented since the 1800s‚ as the Industrial Revolution caused the burning of fossil fuels like coal‚ gas and oil. When these fuels or any other organic material like wood or paper are burned‚ they release compounds like sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrous oxides (NOx) into the air. Are SO2 and NOx the causes of acid rain? Indirectly‚ yes. When SO2 and NOx enter the atmosphere
