In this lab students will watch a titration in action and understand how it relates to acid-base chemistry and stoichiometry. Students will learn how titrations can be performed to determine the unknown concentrations of acids and bases, and how this idea is applied in the production of commercial products.

Join Dr. Mike Marvel on a tour of the house to demonstrate everyday phenomena related to gases and their properties. Students will be able to access a Google Worksheet (link below) that will ask them to record a 1-2 sentence explanation of the phenomenon. As part of the live session we will come to a final explanation of the phenomenon.
