One thing that definitely went wrong in the lab was that we had to round about two of our measurements and the reason being was that they were exact. To exemplify, when we were reading the volume for the finishing measurement of the base for trial three, we got exactly 45.00 mL. The only problem was that, we had didn’t really have the two significant decimal numbers. Hence, we rounded our volume to 45.01 mL. Also, we got exactly 23.00 mL for our finishing volume of the acid for trial three. Therefore, once again we rounded it to 23.02mL in order to get at least two significant decimal numbers.

    The first part of the experiment was determining the resolution of the DAC in volts. Before a voltage was applied the noise was determined by measuring the DC offset, the reading of the DMM at an input of zero volts. This offset was removed from the recorded values in order to provide a more accurate reading of the resolution. These corrected values and their corresponding applied voltages can be found in Table 1 of the appendix. The lowest value recorded from the DMM was -9.968V and the highest value recorded was +9.968V making the range of the DMM about 19.94±0.01V. Using the equation for calculating resolution, the resolution was calculated for values of N from 10 to 18 in increments of 2 (recorded in Table 2).…

    Initial Goals: My initial goals for the program was to take in an equation like 5*(4/3+2^(3-1)) and return the answer to it (26.666667 in this case). I intended it to work with simple arithmetic (multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, exponents, and parentheses). My initial brainstorming resulted in an iterative action. The program would follow the order of operations and begin with the contents of innermost parentheses and replace that portion of the input with the answer before moving one step out into what is now the innermost parentheses.…

    Antacids are a class of medicine which assist to balance the acidity/ pH balance in your stomach. The pH system is a scale which measures how acidic a substance is or how basic a substance is or if a substance is neutralized. Antacids have the ability to give relief for heartburn, indigestion or symptoms of acid reflux. There are many types of antacids such as calcium, aluminum and magnesium. They’re many ways to consume antacids such as liquids, tablets and chewable tablets.…

    This resulted in a margin of error between trial #1’s experimentally obtained rate and trial #1’s predicted rate being 8.13%. The predicted rate was determined by using the corrected rate law, as well as the corrected average k constant, which is 3.76x10-5 1/sM. The formula used to find the percent error was . The overall percent error between the average predicted rate (calculated with the corrected k constants) and the experimentally obtained average rate, not just trial one’s results, was 2.4%. The percent error could have results from many sources of error. The times were all hand timed and sometimes it was difficult to tell when the iodine had completely neutralized so the times may be slightly off.…

    Racheal A. Krasner Professor Garfield Beckford CHEM 1211 L 25 September 2015 Lab Report Concerning Acid-Base Titrations The purpose of this experiment was to recognize the procedures for conducting acid-base titrations. Each acid-base titration used one solution to analyze another; it also involved the use of an indicator, which denoted the endpoint of the titration. The indicator used was phenolphthalein; it produced a pink hue when the titrations reached their endpoints – between pH 8 and pH 10.…

    Conclusion and evaluation: The titration should be carried out carefully while making sure the color of the neutralized solution is the same for all the trials. This can be done by keeping the first sample aside that can be used for reference of the other trials can do this. The readings should be made accurately to avoid having inaccurate results. While titrating the solution should be stirred continuously to make it mix properly with the acid. During the experiment you should make sure none of the solution sticks to the surface of the glass while being transferred, this could affect the reaction and…

    The learning objective of the experiment performed was to determine the pH of solutions that were given by using litmus paper and pH machine. The Experiment was kind of successful except for an issue with one of the solutions. When we tried to figure out the pH by looking at the litmus paper; we were stuck between a pH of 6 and 7. The best choice was to choose a number in between 6 and 7.…
