A series of collaborative learning activities and accompanying text that develop chemical equilibrium, including acid-base chemistry, formation of water-soluble complexes, and solubility are provided. These activities are intended to be done in class by students working in groups, but can be modified for use as out-of-class exercises. Learning objectives, an instructor’s manual, and out-of-class problems are…
Students calculate the pH during the titration of a weak base. A text to accompany the worksheet is also provided.
Introduction
A series of collaborative learning activities and accompanying text that develop fundamental aspects of electrochemistry and electrochemical methods of analysis. These activities are intended to be done in class by students working in groups, but can be modified for use as out-of-class exercises. Learning objectives and an instructor’s manual are provided as well. The instructor’s…
Students examine metal chelate complexes and the titration of metals using EDTA.
Introduction
This learning module introduces students to acid-base titrimetry at a level suitable for an introductory course in analytical chemistry. The module assumes students are comfortable with stoichiometric calculations, particularly as they apply to acid-base reactions, that they are familiar with the general shape of a titration curve, and that they appreciate the difference between a…
Students explore titrations of weak acids and based using a titration simulator.
Students will learn to:
List and describe the factors/parameters that affect the shape of acid-base titration curves
Predict and explain why the change occurs when each of these factors/parameters is adjusted
Calculate the pH of solution and articulate its correlation to any point on…
Students use an acid-base titration simulator to explore the effect of different variables.
Students will learn to: Determine the pH at any point throughout an acid-base titration including the titration of:
A strong acid with a strong base
A strong base with a strong acid
…
Students examine the titration of monoprotic and polyprotic systems when completing this activity.
