0.1 M Triethanolamine

-
0.1 M TEA:

TEA = Triethanolamine

You will dilute TEA 1:10 in Millipore water:

Pour 50 mL TEA into a 50 mL conical tube (TEA is very viscuous, so best to measure it in something that is disposable).

Pour TEA from conical tube into 450 mL Millipore water with stirring.

pH to 8.0

Measuring the volume of a liquid with a graduated cylinder

-
Image
The surface of a liquid confined in a cylinder curves to form what is known as a meniscus. The meniscus of most liquids curves up the sides of the container, making the center of the curve appear lower than the edges. Mercury is one of very few exceptions - it curves down at the edges. Since reading the meniscus at the top or at the bottom of the curve will make a difference in the volume measured, it is generally agreed to always read the bottom of the curve. The smaller the container, the greater the curve of the meniscus. Pictured below is the meniscus in a 10 mL graduated cylinder. To gain experience in reading liquid volumes, click on the picture to enlarge it and read the volume in the following way: the meniscus in a graduated cylindar 1. The largest graduations on this graduated cylinder are numbered, representing milliliters. What whole number of milliliters are represented in the picture? 2. There are five graduations from one major line to the next in this picture. In ot
