The experiment described in this paper emphasizes quantitative technique and introduces complexometric titrations, elementary statistics describing precision and its measurement, ion activities and activity coefficients, free energy and equilibrium, a thermodynamic picture of the solution process, and the solubility product principle and its limitations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
