 Experiment 2
Acid and Base Classifications
Acids and bases are classes of chemical compounds. There are weak and strong acids and bases based
on their ability to dissociate in aqueous solution. They can interact with each other. Be careful when
you handle acid or base in any situation. Please read the lab safety section carefully and consult with
your instructor if necessary.

Problem Statement: What are the characteristics of acid and base solutions?

Part II
Data Collection: Properties of acids and bases

A. Set up a 96 well micro-plate on the lab bench. Label rows and columns which can be seen in figure
below. With a·medicinal dropper or dropper bottle carefully½ fill each well of column l(rows A-F)
