An acid-base indicator is a substance that changes color as the pH of the solution changes. Indicators work because they are weak acids which when in solution, exist in equilibrium with their ...

The ‘acidity myth’ is widely marketed; however, true systemic acidosis is rare in healthy individuals, and alkali therapy has limited evidence outside specific diseases.

Several theories have been developed to explain the behaviour of acids and bases. The most notable theories include the Arrhenius concept, the Brønsted-Lowry theory, and the Lewis concept. In the ...

A crash course on the basic differences between acids and bases. A crash course on the basic differences between acids and bases, complete with a classroom-friendly experiment demonstrating the ...

This lab includes a theoretical explanation of how buffers work and how they are made, including a derivation of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation. Students will use what they have learned to ...

A well-established technique, acid-base titration is an analytical method used to determine the concentration of an unknown acid or base. In practice, it involves adding a solution of known strength ...

SIOUX CITY (KTIV) - Gather your supplies! In this episode we will use everyday materials to explore pH and how it changes between acids and bases. Blackberries contain a chemical class called ...

Diets rich in animal protein and cereal grains and deficient in vegetables and fruits may cause low-grade metabolic acidosis, which may impact exercise and health. We hypothesized that (1) a ...

To define "steady-state" chronic hypercapnia in man, we studied 20 patients with stable carbon dioxide tensions from 34 to 103 mm of mercury and with no apparent complicating disorders. The whole-body ...
