    unknown concentration. An example could be, a given volume of a solution of unknown acidity may be titrated with a base of known concentration until complete neutralization has occurred. This point is called the equivalence point and is generally determined by observing a color change in an added indicator such as phenolphthalein. From the volume and concentration of added base and the volume of acid solution, the unknown concentration of the solution before titration can be determined. Titrations

The reason why they did this stands to the point that the company produced products in two seasons, fall and spring.

    An acid-base indicator is a substance that undergoes a distinct colour change at or near the equivalence point. The point in the titration at which the colour change occurs is called as end point. Obviously, the titration will be accurate only if the end point and the equivalence point coincide fairly closely. For this reason, an acid-base indicator used in this acid-base titration must be selected carefully in order to obtain an accurate result. Thus, the acid-base indicator used in this

  • The Importance Of Acids And Bases

    861 Words  | 2 Pages

    INTRODUCTION We encounter acids and bases on our daily lives. Acids are substances that have a pH of less than 7. On the other hand, bases have pH of greater than 7. They both react to each other to form salt. Acids and bases also exhibit some characteristics like acids are sour and bases are bitter in taste. Acids are also rough in texture while bases are slippery. But you can’t just touch or taste acids and bases as some strong acids and strong bases are dangerous. They contain chemicals that are

  • Charcoal Filter In A Filter

    The scientific question that was investigated in this experiment is: Does the material used in a filter affect the amount of salt that passes through a filter? The hypothesis was that if the saltwater was run through the different materials listed, then the charcoal filter would filter the most salt out of the water. The independent variable in this experiment is the type of material used in the filter and the dependent variable is the amount of salt left in the filtered water. Some control variables
