Find one instance of the importance of buffers to life or to the environment and write a SHORT paragraph about the chemistry, referencing all sources.
Based upon the introduction in your lab manual, what are you trying to find with your experiment?
Based upon the purpose of your experiment, what claim can you make using your experimental evidence?
Table(s) of your results. Include expected, experimental, and % error as appropriate.
Discussion of your results.
Which buffer had the highest capacity for added acid? Is this consistent with your expected results? Use a graph and a table of your experimental results to support your conclusion.
Which buffer had the highest capacity for added base? Is this consistent with your expected results? Use a graph and a table of your experimental results to support your conclusion.
Uncertainty and Error in measurements.
Identify possible sources of uncertainty and error in your measurements
Comment on the relevance for each possible source of error. Based on the magnitude and direction of the error source and evidence from your laboratory notebook, determine if each source of error is relevant for your results.
