Name ______________________________ Date ___________ Experiment Comparison of Buffered and non-Buffered Antacids Post-lab questions and analysis: 1. Based on the Ingredients label on the bottle, how many mg of calcium carbonate are present in each tablet of the buffered antacid? _______500 mg________ 2. Based on the Ingredients label on the bottle, how many mg of magnesium hydroxide are present in each tablet of the unbuffered antacid? ______400 mg__________ 3. What was the color of your acid solution before adding any antacid? ___________Light purple______________ 4. What was the pH of your acid solution before adding any antacid? ______________4_________________ 5. What brand of calcium carbonate antacid did you use? ________________Equate________________ a. What was the color of your final solution? ______________Light Pink_____________ b. What was the pH of your final solution based on that color? ________4___________________ c. Based on your results, would you consider this to be a buffered or non-buffered ant-acid? Non- buffered____ 6. For the Milk of Magnesia tablet -- a. What was the color of your final solution? _______Purple____________________ b. What was the pH of your final solution based on that color? _______8_______________________ c. Based on your results, would you consider this to be a buffered or non-buffered ant-acid? ________buffered_____ 7. How did you determine that pH? ________________________Based on the color chart and the stripps _________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 8. For the solution containing the acid and the buffered antacid, did the color change immediately or was it slow? How might you account for your observations? ________It changed over time, not as instant_____________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ 9. For the solution containing the acid and the un-buffered antacid, did the color change immediately or was it slow? How might you account for your observations? 1
Name ______________________________ Date ___________ __________________Took its time______________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ 10. If the initial concentration of commercial vinegar is 0.817 M in acetic acid, what is the final concentration of acetic acid in the simulated stomach acid solution? Show your calculations and underline your final answer. 10^(-8) -> 1.8 x 10^-5xC C (10^-8) / 1.8 x 10^-5 -- 0.55 × 10^-3 M 11. Write a balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid and calcium carbonate. CaCO2+ 2HCl3 CaCl2+ CO2+H2O 12. Using the balanced equation from question #11 and the concentration of acetic acid in your acid solution as calculated in #10, how many grams of calcium carbonate should it take to completely neutralize the acid in your simulated stomach acid solution? Show your calculations and underline the final answer. ???? 13. You added one antacid tablet to the test solution. Compare the amount of calcium carbonate calculated in question #12 to the amount of calcium carbonate you added. Explain how the two amount compare (too little, slightly less than needed, stoichiometrically equivalent, a small excess, a large excess, etc.). _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ 14. Write a balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid with magnesium hydroxide. C2H4 O2 + H2 MgO2 -> C4H6MgO4 + H2O 15. Using the balanced equation from question #14 and the concentration of acetic acid in your acid solution as calculated in #10, how many grams of magnesium hydroxide should it take to completely neutralize the acid in your simulated stomach acid solution? Show your calculations and underline the final answer. .583g x 10^2 mg / 1g -> 583 mg 2
Name ______________________________ Date ___________ 16. You added one milk of magnesia antacid tablet to the test solution. Compare the amount of magnesium hydroxide calculated in question #15 to the amount of magnesium hydroxide you added. Explain how the two amounts compare (too little, slightly less than needed, stoichiometrically equivalent, a small excess, a large excess, etc.). More then one thing could’ve been added to it. ________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________ 3
