CHEM 121 Data Analysis Report
Learning Objectives
Measure pH levels at different concentrations of acids and bases
Compare the effect of dilutions/concentration on strong and weak acids and bases
Plot the change in pH at different concentrations for the acid and for the base on line graphs (not on bar graphs)
Plot strong and weak acid data on the same graph
Plot strong and weak base data on the same graph
Using the graphed results, Interpret the effect of dilution on pH for acids and bases
INSTRUCTIONS
Plan to set aside 8-12 hours to complete this activity. It involves orientation to the chemistry simulation, running the simulation, collecting screenshots of every result, plotting the data that you collect, and answering a set of questions about the data.
*Go to the Acid-Base Solution Simulation at PhET Simulations.
See the image below for an overview of the functions in the Acid Base Solutions simulation.
