Acids and bases can be found in many places, including the kitchen. Acids like lemon juice can make foods taste sour. Basic or alkaline foods such as peas or almonds may have more of a bland taste.  As we’ve learned this week, an acid donates a proton, and a base will accept a proton. Choose […]

Find 5 foods you eat regularly and determine the kilocalorie content according to the number of servings you eat at a time. Use this information to calculate the calories and joules. How do food scientists determine the number of kilocalories that are reported on food labels? How does your body use this energy? Explain if […]

Look around your house or work for a medicine requiring dosage instructions. Discuss the medicine’s name, use, concentration, or dosage. Include a picture of the active ingredient in the drug. Derive and solve a dosage problem based on the medicine that you choose. For example, your physician ordered 2.4 g of folic acid. Folic acid […]

Compare (similarities) and contrast (differences) ionic and covalent bonding. Make sure to discuss the valence electrons and electronegativity of the atoms involved. Give an example of a molecule formed with each type of bonding. In your example, give the chemical formula and the IUPAC name of each molecule. Finally, list 1 additional ionic and 1 […]

1.Reini Look around your house for an ionic compound.  Around my house, I found NaHCO3 as my ionic compound. Look around your work (or the internet) for an ionic compound in the medical field. An ionic compound found in the medical field is NaOH. Discuss each ionic compound, including the name and formula, and how […]
