AND EQUILIBRIUM Indigestion and Titration: An Acid-Base Titration Imagine yourself as the Lead Analytical Chemist at Kaplan Industries. Your first big assignment is to investigate the strength of several commercial antacids for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They have sent five antacids to be tested with a back-titration that works as follows: • • • First, each antacid tablet is mixed with 40 mL of 0.1 M HCl—this acidic solution is the same stuff that is in stomach acid, and one antacid

######## Chm 2046L/ ######## Antacids: Neutralizing Acid Within the Stomach Introduction: Knowing the acidity of a substance or environment can be very crucial to maintaining the safety of everything in the surrounding area. Humans have a strong acid within the stomach known as hydrochloric acid (HCl). HCl is essential as the body uses it to digest the food that comes in. Through this process is how humans can break down all the food eaten to take in the nutrients necessary for survival

hydronium ions to relieve irritation. We can calculate and examine how the weak base from the tablet neutralizes the acid. The antacid tablet that is used in this experiment is TUMS. The two trials are designed to determine the average effect. The end result will be a compare and contrast of each trial to see the level of accuracy and what the overall experiment concludes. Dr. William Beaumont developed the knowledge of gastric acid. When he was a surgeon in the United States Army, a man named Alexis St

neutralize all of the stomach solution or they did not just neutralize a small amount of it. This experiment was all relative to the other tablets, because I had no background information on what defines an antacid tablet to be effective so I had to base it on the results of the other tablets. Rolaids® took an irregular amount of stomach solution compared to the other tablets to neutralize, so I based my results on this observation. Introduction The purpose of doing this project was to figure
