    Titration Help: Standardize HCl Using Oxalic Acid & CaCOH Solution

    Thanks for the response guys, I did pretty good on this inclass lab exam today, as far as the calculations went, but the actual titrating and stuff was a little weird as I overfilled my volumetric flask and some other weird stuff. Overall I did alright, but thanks anyway for the help.

    Why can't you consume dairy products while on antibiotics?

    Thanks for replying iansmith and hitssquad. But yeah, you guys were right. The sticker reads "do not take dairy products, antacids, or iron preparations within one hour of this medication". For some odd reason, I only picked up the first part of the sticker and not the second part. I guess it...

    High School Was my physics teacher justified in giving me a zero on the test?

    Okay, so after a long, hard fought battle, I decision was finally made... :biggrin: Basically, to make a 3 day story short, here's what happened... The teacher marked all the tests (I don't know about mine) and gave them back to the students. He said they were to make their corrections and...
