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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Carboxylic acids can carry out the same reactions as other acids, for example the reactions with metals and metal carbonate. Carboxylic acids are weak acids, and will react more slowly than other, ...

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 ...

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 ...
