Core Competency Self-Assessment Chemistry

“I can analyze evidence to make judgements.” During this lab we learned how to titrate a solution and find the concentration of hydrochloric acid. We added the base which was sodium hydroxide into the hydrochloric acid bit by bit until the new solution became a light pink colour that stays for a minute. We did two trials and in these two trials I had to look at what went well and what didn’t. I analyzed everything that happened and was prepared for our next trial, we figured out what we wanted to change and adapted. On our second try we got it to the perfect shade of pink.
