    Substituting NaOH for Ca(OH)2 in Buffering Capacity Experiment: Will it Work?

    Homework Statement We are doing a experiement where we are testing the buffering capacity of soils. The text says to use Ca(OH)2, but we only have NaOH, which i plan to substitute. I just wanted to check that the solution i make up will have the equivalent OH. Homework Equations making...

    Making up various concentraions of ethanol

    I am setting up a prac for a class next week, and need a little help on making up solutions of ethanol. (I am a microbiologist and haven't done any of this sort of stuff for years) The prac calls for 1M, 2M, 3M and 4M solutions of ethanol, and I have a 99% solution of ethanol. The way I...
