Abstract

Acids and bases are the daily life topics because they are in everything we use in daily life. The tooth paste, the soap, fruits, vinegar and else is the examples of acids and bases which we use so much. Though, they are topics from daily life most of their properties are unknown like hydrolysis. As acids and bases can be strong or weak, their strength can affect their tendency to react with other chemicals, to neutralize another acid or base. This is called hydrolysis. In this experiment I tried to examine the production of hydrolysis based on the strength. According to my hypothesis; hydrolysis is the neutralization reaction which is affected by the strength of the acid or the base. When one of them, the acid or the base, is weak and the other is strong the neutralization reaction cannot be fully finished. The ions coming from the weak one reacts with water and forms its original acid or base. NaOH( sodium hydroxide) is a strong base which can neutralize acids and NH3(ammonia) is a weak base which cannot fully neutralize an acid because the ammonium ion coming from NH3 reacts with water and form NH3 again. HCl(hydrochloric acid) is a strong acid that can neutralize bases and CH3COOH(acetic acid or vinegar acid) is a weak acid and it cannot fully neutralize a base. The experiments that I have done prove my hypothesis with one extra information. As the hydrolysis process is based on the strength of the acid or the base it can also be affected by the molarity of the chemical. Molarity and the strength of acids and bases are the things that affect the occurrence of hydrolysis process as happened during my experiments. The results of my experiments have been affected by the molarity of the solution that I have used.
