Drug: Antacid Effectiveness Analysis Drug: Antacid Effectiveness Analysis
To determine the neutralizing ability of antacids To determine the neutralizing ability of antacids in different brands using back titrationin different brands using back titration
THEORYTHEORY
ANTI ACID IS A KIND OF MEDICINE ANTI ACID IS A KIND OF MEDICINE THAT USED TO CURE STOMACH THAT USED TO CURE STOMACH ACHE ACHE
IN THIS EXPERIMENT ,WE WILL PUT IN THIS EXPERIMENT ,WE WILL PUT THE ANTI ACID IN KNOWN THE ANTI ACID IN KNOWN MOLARITY (O.1M)HCl AND IS BACK MOLARITY (O.1M)HCl AND IS BACK TITRATED AGAINST STANDARD TITRATED AGAINST STANDARD NaOH SOLUTION.NaOH SOLUTION.
WE CAN DETERMINE THE WE CAN DETERMINE THE NEUTRALIZING POWER OF EACH NEUTRALIZING POWER OF EACH BRAND OF SAMPLE BY RECORDING BRAND OF SAMPLE BY RECORDING THE VOLUME OF NaOH USED IN THE VOLUME OF NaOH USED IN BACK TITRATIONBACK TITRATION
THE ONE WHICH USE LESS NaOH IN THE ONE WHICH USE LESS NaOH IN BACK TITRATION MEANS THAT IS BACK TITRATION MEANS THAT IS THE STRONGERTHE STRONGER
