Introduction: Vinegar lab Acids and bases (including salts that hydrolyze) behave uniquely to establish states of equilibria when they dissociate in water. There are three classic acid-base theories: Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis. The Arrhenius theory defines an acid as any substance that is capable of producing hydrogen ions (H+), or more appropriately, hydronium ions (H3O+), in aqueous solution, while a base is any substance that produces hydroxide ions in solution. According to Bronsted-Lowry theory …showed first 75 words of 698 total…

The method is particularly well-suited to acid-base and oxidation-reduction reactions. Titrations are routinely used in industry to analyze products to be sold. In this experiment, the group will carry out a titration of vinegar with NaOH to determine the strength of vinegar and discover whether or not it is legal.
