CHEMISTRY EXPERIENCE
The laboratory activity that I
witness for the first time is the blow-
job activity. In this activity, a simple
routine of inhaling and exhaling can
be the product of learning in
chemistry specifically in the
experiment. Phenolphthalein is an
acid/base indicator. It is colorless
when it is an acid and pink when it is
a base. Lime water is a calcium
hydroxide solution, which is a base.
Lime water was added to the regular
water in the solution. Lime water is a
base, so when the phenolphthalein
was added to the solution, it turned
the solution pink. When I exhaled
into the solution, the carbon dioxide
in a person's breath reacted with the
water to form Carbonic Acid. When
enough carbonic acid is formed it
neutralizes the lime water, which is a
base and makes the solution an
acid. Therefore, with the
phenolphthalein, the color
disappears in the now acidic
solution. As you keep blowing your
breath into the solution, there is now
an excess of hydrogen ions or acid.
` PEOPLE TO THANK
ACTIVITY THAT HAD TAKEN
SERIOUSLY
The activity that I/We need
to take it seriously is the titration.
Because, as we put the NaOh in
the solution of the HCl with antacid
tablet together an indicator, we
need to give serious attention
since it easily changes the color of
solution into magenta. The color
must be pink.
I would like to thank the
people behind the successful
semester in Analytical Chemistry.
First, to our instructor in this
course, Mr. Jefferson Flores who
is always there for us and giving
his best always in teaching us.
And also for understanding and
caring even if we are not that good
academically. Second, to my
classmates, my second family
which I can share and always UNFORGETABLE
there for all time. Lastly, to my EXPERIENCES IN THE LAB
family who gives moral support
when I feel down. The most unforgettable that I
encounter in the Analytical
Chemistry was there is always a
collaborative learning in our section
before the class starts. With this, we
are able to know each other and
there is cooperation each one of us.
But, no matter what and how hard
we study is, there is no improvement
of my or our grades. I always ask
myself if what’s wrong with me. And
sometimes I compare myself to
another. And every time I refresh
what we did and review the topic last
time I thought I really learned but
during the test or quiz, I felt
disappointment to myself.

VIOLATED RULES AND

In the laboratory activities, I
have violated some guidelines
before, during, after and how
to use laboratory equipment.
Here is the list I have violated
