Chemistry Coursework Experiment Thomas Temple 10i An experiment to find the strength of five Household Acids And Alkalis. Introduction: In this experiment I hope to find out the strength of three household alkalines and two household acids. Prediction I plan to do this by using the theory of neutralisation. Neutralisation is when an Alkalae neutralises an Acid or vice-versa. Neutralisation happens when Hydrogen Ions from the acid react with the Hydroxide Ions from the Alkalae to form Water. H + OH H O (aq) (aq) (l) Acid + Alkalae Water (Neutral) The reason that this reaction works is that Acids give away Hydrogen Ions where as Alkalaes take them, and without this, neutralisation couldn't happen. So the Alkalae takes the Hydrogen Ions From the Acid so the Alkalae now has two Hydrogen Ions joined to one Oxygen Ion, which is left over from the Alkalae and this is called Water ( H2O...
