SAT Physics Electric Potential - Potential Of Uniform Fields

Image
SAT Physics Electric Potential - Potential Of Uniform Fields POTENTIAL OF UNIFORM FIELDS Uniform electric fields are a property of equal and oppositely charged parallel plates. Since the electric field between these plates is uniform, the electric potential is evenly distributed in the space between the plates. Figure 11.1 shows how the electric potential associated with a set of 6-volt plates is commonly visualized. Figure 11.1. Electric potential for uniform fields Since the negative plate is low potential, it is often set as the zero point to simplify problems. By definition, the positive plate is considered to be the high potential plate. In this figure, it is set as 6 volts. By definition, the negative plate is the low potential plate. Here it is set as 0 volts. Electric potential is similar to height h in a mechanics problem, where the surface of Earth is the zero point and each meter of height is equally spaced and parallel to Earth. The magnitude of the electric po

SAT Chemistry The Laboratory -   Laboratory Safety Rules The Ten Commandments of Lab Safety The following is a summary of rules you should be well aware of in your own chemistry lab. Dress appropriately for the lab. Wear safety goggles and a lab apron or coat. Tie back long hair. Do not wear open-toed shoes. Know what safety equipment is available and howto use it. This includes the eyewash fountain, fire blanket, fire extinguisher, and emergency shower. Know the dangers of the chemicals in use, and read labels carefully. Do not taste or sniff chemicals. Dispose of chemicals according to instructions. Use designated disposal sites, and follow the rules. Never return unneeded chemicals to the original containers. Always add acids and bases to water slowly to avoid splattering. This is especially important when using strong acids and bases that can generate significant heat, form steam, and splash out of the container. Never point heating test tubes at yourself or others.

SAT Chemistry Acids, Bases, and Salts - Indicators

SAT Chemistry Acids, Bases, and Salts -  Indicators Some indicators can be used to determine pH because of their color changes somewhere along this pH scale. Some common indicators and their respective color changes are given below. Here is an example of how to read this chart: At pH values below 4.5, litmus is red; above 8.3, it is blue. Between these values, it is a mixture of the two colors. In choosing an indicator for a titration, we need to consider if the solution formed when the end point is reached has a pH of 7. Depending on the type of acid and base used, the resulting hydrolysis of the salt formed may cause it to be slightly acidic, slightly basic, or neutral. If the titration is of a strong acid and a strong base, the end point will be at pH 7 and practically any indicator can be used. This is because the addition of 1 drop of either reagent will change the pH at the end point by about 6 units. For titrations of strong acids and weak bases, we need an indicator, su
