An experiment focused on determining the ph of various solutions using ph paper and a universal ph indicator. It details the procedure, including the materials used (such as hydrogen chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and sodium chloride), and the steps taken to measure the ph of each solution. The experiment aims to teach students how to identify substances as neutral, acidic, or alkaline based on their ph values. A data table summarizing the ph measurements obtained for each solution using both ph paper and a universal indicator, along with observations about the nature of each solution (neutral, acidic, or alkaline). It concludes by summarizing the findings and reinforcing the relationship between ph values and the chemical properties of the tested substances. This experiment is suitable for introductory chemistry courses, providing hands-on experience with ph measurement techniques and the interpretation of ph values.
