Weak base

many systems created to hold a constant pH balance. Blood has many components to help the body stay stable. the Body’s pH allows us to do everyday life without constantly being sick. A buffer is a mix of a weak acid and a conjugate base in a solution. They resist pH change when acids or bases are added to the solution. Blood is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma. Red blood cells help the body is carrying nutrients. Hemoglobin is the main component in…

Since acetic acid is considered a weak acid (strong within the scale of weak acids), there is a range at which the acetic acid and acetate will form a stable buffer. Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for buffers, it’s possible to calculate the pH based on the ratio of acid to conjugate base, or calculate the ratio given the pH and pKa value. Finding charge on a protonated amine: The pKa value given for the amino group on any amino acid specifically refers to the equilibrium between the…

household ammonia. 3. Why is it necessary to add an indicator? Describe how an indicator works. The reason why it is necessary to add an indicator is to determine the concentration of an unknown solution. By reacting with H+ and OH-, these are weak acids and bases. If an indicator is a…

Lab 14/ Test 6: Determination of Acid Dissociation Constants through Titration Sabrina Tom I.Abstract The two unknown solutions A and E were titrated with NaOH solutions. For each solution, one fast and three slow titrations were done to see where the pH rose exponentially. The unknown solutions A and E were determined to be Pyridinium ion acid and oxalic acid, respectively. II.Theories One significant concept throughout this lab is titrations. A titration is a lab method analyzes a…

imbalance. In our lab, we were given the question of which antacid out of the antacids provided to us was the “best” at neutralizing stomach acid. To answer that question me must first establish what makes an antacid the best, we decided that the strongest base would be the best at neutralizing a strong acid. We realized that we would be neutralizing a strong acid because the main acid in the stomach is…

What are buffer solutions? Buffer solutions are solutions in water that mark the mixture of acids and bases. They assist in neutralization response to a certain quantity. Acidic buffer answers are those that have robust acids and weak bases as their components. they're used for neutralizing alkaline solutions. Alkaline or primary buffer answers are those who have sturdy alkalis and weak acids within themixture. they're used for neutralizing acidic aqueous answers. Buffer solutions in the blood…

determining an unknown acid or base, anion and cation test were performed. These tests allowed for the components of the solutions to be identified, therefore, achieve the second goal. The pH was also used in to help find the identity of the unknown solutions and it was used to draw conclusions about the solutions. Dilutions were used to help understand the different behaviors of different concentrations. Household items were used to help apply basic theories about acids and bases such as pH.…

acidic. The mouth has a neutral ph that varies slightly from 6.5-7.5. This ph is maintained by buffers in the mouth, particularly in saliva. Buffers are solutions made up of either a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt. They are used to resist the ph change in a solution when small amounts of acids or bases are added.…

Analysis of Chemical Equilibria INTRODUCTION The reaction being done with borax and HCl is an acid base reaction. The K constant expression of the reaction is Kc = [Na^+][B4O7^-2]. A titration is needed for this experiment because when a strong acid with a known concentration is added to a weak base, the unknown concentration of the weak base can be found, which can then find the moles of the weak base, which can then find the Kc. The first law of thermodynamics is that energy can’t be created…

I believe that “The Cosmological Argument” for God is still quite valid, my reasons for defending this argument have been produced after a great deal of reflection on the matter, I have concluded that the argument is still quite useful. To best describe the argument, it is the conclusion that “nothing comes from nothing” as was stated by St. Aquinas, in other words God must exist because if there was nothing then we needed something to “call it into existence” so to speak. This coincides…
