The desired objective of this experiment is to use the dilution, buffers, pH, Ka, pKa and the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to determine and compare the pKa of acetic acid. This experiment will find that the concentration of acetic acid will remain unchanged

The objective for this experiment is to focus on Le Chateliers and different shifts help maintain equilibrium in the reactions .The removal of excess H+ ions will cause a shift going towards the right, this will end up resulting in a yellow type of color. For the 2nd solution the addition of the base will cause the reaction to reverse, this will cause the reaction to make a shift towards the left causing the solution to return to back to its violet color. Finally, the addition of Mg (OH)2 will c...
