6
Q

why was the method used for part a

A
  1. antacid tablets dissolve faster in acid than in water as they react as they dissolve
  2. carbon dioxide in the air will dissolve in water and act as an acid reacting right away to neutralize any basic solution

Q

can we assume a bigger antacid tablet is more effective? or or why not?

A

loses a proton to become basic

what indicator was used in part A

A

bromocresol green

43
Q

what indicator was used in part B

A

phenolphthalein

44
Q

describe the behavior of phenolphthalein

A

loses a molecule of water at the same time as it loses a proton

45
Q

what PH range does phenolphthalein have

A

8 - 10

46
Q

do you want the end point far from the equivalence point

A

NO - want it CLOSE
