Titration is a technological process in which a solution, known as a titrant, is slowly and carefully added from a burrette into a fixed volume of another solution (known as the sample). In an acid-base titration an acid neutralizes a base or vice versa. This process is maintained untill the reaction between the titrant and the sample (acid and the base) is judged to be complete. The reaction is judged to be complete when the endpoint is reached. An endpoint in a titration analysis is referred to as the point at which no more titrant is added due to an observable colour change of an indicator. Indicators can be used to find an endpoint because they change colour when the pH of a solution changes and an endpoint in a titration is an empirical approximation of the equivalence point, which is the point of major pH change in the titration sample due to the fact that equal chemical amounts of reactants have been combined at that point. All indicators have a pH range, which is the range of pH values at which the colour of the indicator changes. Thus …show more content…
A polyprotic acid is a substance that can give more than one proton (hydrogen ion) and a polyprotic base is a substance that can gain more than one proton (hydrogen ion). However, through evidence of titration graphs involving polyprotic acids or bases it can be seen that a polyprotic substance does not give or take more than one proton at once rather it gains/loses one proton at a time. Meaning that if a polyprotic acid loses two protons it loses them through two reactions, each involving a single proton transfer. Since polyprotic substances undergo more than one proton transfer reaction, they have two equivalence points and thus two curves on their titration graphs. Take the example of a polyprotic acid, such as H2SO3, if it were to be titrated with a strong base, its graph would look something like
Record the volume of the sodium thiosulfate solution used in the titration, and repeat the procedure in a duplicate titration.
The purpose of the lab is to figure the concentration of the unknown solution by using the equation of the coordination curve formed by the absorbance of the solution of known
This lab contains two different procedures to titrating vinegar. One procedure uses phenolphthalein while the other uses a pH meter. Bothe procedures can be found on “An Analysis of a Household Acid: Titrating Vinegar” by the Department of Chemistry at APSU.
Cu (aq) + 2NO3 (aq) + 2Na+ (aq) + 2OH- (aq) → Cu(OH)2 (s) + 2Na+ (aq) + 2NO3(aq)
Most substances fall on a scale ranging from the most acidic to the the most basic with neutral substances falling somewhere in the middle. Scientists call this the pH scale. pH levels are measured in numbers,0 to 14. The closer a substance is to zero the more acidic it would be. The closer to 14 the more basic a substance would be.Now what defines an acid and a base, one might ask? There are three ways of defining acids, each singling out a specific property. The first theory is the Arrhenius Theory with states, that an acid is a substance that produces the ion H+ when in a water solution, while a base is a substance which produces the ion OH- when in a water solution. Examples of an Arrhenius acid are HCl and HNO3. Examples of an Arrhenius base are NaOH and AlOH3.
Throughout the Salem Witch Trials, a man named Samuel Parris had purchased a slave named Tituba who would then be accused of being a witch(Rebecca Brooks, 2013).. The Salem Witch Trials involved many people put to blame for being witches is they acted different, or acted out of the norm within their society. The witch hunts all began in the year of 1692 within the area of Salem. During the year of 1692, many people were being accused of being a witch and being thrown into jail. There were some conformations that Tituba was a witch as well from the people who lived around her.
Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “When the opportunity presents itself for you to defeat your enemy, that is the time which you must not do it,” embodying his philosophy of mutual “Christian love.” Up until the Civil Rights Movement, discrimination and racism had been a major problem in the United States. King’s An Experiment in Love was a declaration of principles, introducing his idea of agape, neighborly, “Christian” love, which he also described as “the love of God toward his creations.” Later, Jane Elliot, whose experiments were documented in A Class Divided, studied discrimination among young children, and Abbey Crain and Matt Ford described an incident of discrimination occurring at their school, the University of Alabama, in the article The Final Barrier: 50 Years Later, Discrimination Still Exists. Harper Lee’s book To Kill a Mockingbird is a love story as interpreted by An Experiment in Love because agape is portrayed in many forms throughout the course of its events.

Acid-Base Titration I. Abstract The purpose of the laboratory experiment was to determine equivalence. points, pKa, and pKb points for a strong acid, HCl, titrated with a. strong base, NaOH using a drop by drop approach in order to determine. completely accurate data. The data for this laboratory experiment is as follows.
Ion exchange chromatography is a unique technique for effective separation of ions, amino acids, peptides, nucleotide and nucleic acids etc. This technique is widely used in the pre-fractionation or purification of a target protein from crude biological samples.

vii. This would allow the determination of the percentage of citric acid in the lemon juice specifically, rather than the total acidity. The results of this could have been compared to those of the titration, and the contribution of citric acid to the overall initial acidity could have been determined.

Chemistry: Acid-Base Titration. Purpose: The objective of this experiment were: a) to review the concept of simple acid-base reactions; b) to review the stoichiometric calculations involved in chemical reactions; c) to review the basic lab procedure of titration and introduce the student to the concept of a primary standard and the process of standardization; d) to review the calculations involving chemical solutions; e) to help the student improve his/her lab technique Theory: Titration was used to study acid-base neutralization reaction quantitatively. In acid-base titration experiment, a solution of accurately KHP concentration was added gradually to another solution of NaOH concentration until the chemical reaction between the two solutions was completed. The equivalence point was the point at which the acid was completely reacted with or neutralized by the base.
For this experiment we used titration to standardize the exact concentration of NaOH. Titration is the process of carefully adding one solution from a buret to another substance in a flask until all of the substance in the flask has reacted. Standardizing is the process of determining a solutions concentration. When a solution has been standardized it is referred to as a standard solution. To know when a solution is at its end point an indicator is added to acidic solution. An indicator is an organic dye that is added to an acidic solution. The indicator is one color is in the acidic solution and another color in the basic solutions. An end point occurs when the organic dye changes colors to indicate that the reaction is over (Lab Guide pg. 141).
