Product Details

Classic AP Requirement #11—Determination of the Appropriate Indicators for Various Acid–Base Titrations

Students select the appropriate indicators for two titrations—a weak acid solution titrated with a strong base solution and a weak base solution titrated with a strong acid solution. Titration curves of pH versus volume of titrant are generated and used by the students to verify the appropriateness of the selected indicators. An excellent assessment of student understanding of the principles of acid–base chemistry.

Complete for 24 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.
