Carbonic Acid Structure: Acids and Bases are an integral part of chemistry and a major portion is devoted to explaining their properties and examples. One of the most studied acids is Carbon Acid. It ...
An acid-base indicator is a substance that changes color as the pH of the solution changes. Indicators work because they are weak acids which when in solution, exist in equilibrium with their ...
A well-established technique, acid-base titration is an analytical method used to determine the concentration of an unknown acid or base. In practice, it involves adding a solution of known strength ...
A neutralisation reaction is one in which an acid reacts with a base to form water. A salt is also formed in this reaction. Bases are metal oxides, metal hydroxides and metal carbonates. In the ...
This lab includes a theoretical explanation of how buffers work and how they are made, including a derivation of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. Students will use what they have learned to ...
Neutralisation is the reaction of an acid with a base that results in the pH moving towards 7. It is a useful process that occurs in everyday life such as in the treatment of acid indigestion and the ...
Acids are chemical compounds that will ionize in water having a hydrogen ion (H+) active greater than that of water. Acids can give up a proton and they are of two types, it is strong acids and weak ...
Through consideration of the ionic equilibria of acids and bases, one may readily calculate the formation constant of a salt species solely on the basis of knowledge of the pKA value of the acid and ...
