Understanding Ocean Acidification: Impact on Coral Reefs
Ocean acidification is the process where oceans become more acidic due to excessive carbon dioxide absorption. Human activities like deforestation and vehicle emissions contribute to this phenomenon. Coral reefs are crucial as many ocean species rely on them for survival. The pH scale measures acidi

Understanding pH Scale and Hydronium Ion Concentration
The pH scale is a logarithmic measurement that indicates the acidity or alkalinity of a solution based on the concentration of hydronium ions. pH values range from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Lower pH values indicate acidity, while higher values indicate alkalinity. This scale provides a convenie

Understanding Acids, Alkalis, Indicators, and the pH Scale
Solutions can be acidic, alkaline, or neutral depending on whether an acid or alkali is dissolved in water. Indicators like litmus and universal indicator help determine acidity or alkalinity. The pH scale measures this, with 7 being neutral. Neutralization reactions occur when an acid and a base re

Estimation of Alkalinity in Water Sample Practical for B.Sc. III Year
Alkalinity in water samples can be estimated by titrating with HCl and using indicators like Phenolpthalein and Methyl orange. The presence of OH-, CO3-, and HCO3- contributes to alkalinity, giving pink or yellow colors with different indicators. The process involves adding indicators, titrating wit
