The purpose of this lab is to determine the Ka of an indicator within an unknown solution. This can be determined because acid-base indicators are weak bases or acids, and when neutralized they change colors. The color change is measured by the light absorption spectra in the compound which can be used to calculate the concentration. This experiment measures the concentrations by the different pH values which allows the pKa and Ka to be determined. Through the experiment, and the recorded color change with the use of the Spec 20 the unknown Ka of the solution was found.…

When I first signed up for color guard, I was just following the lead of my older sister who was also doing it. Thinking this was going to be an easy experience I soon realized that it was nothing how I thought it was going to be.

After getting to feel this amazing feeling after my first performance, color guard also became a passion of mine. Color guard is can be found in most middle schools, high schools and universities.…
When I saw the flyer for color guard my eighth-grade year I was perplexed as it didn't specify what color guard was other than an exciting activity that lets you be apart of marching band. I was skeptical that I would actually like color guard but at the first clinic, I knew I had found a family and exciting activity to pursue. Watching the upperclassmen toss rifles, sabers, and flags with such ease and confidence made me excited to learn and achieve that level of confidence. This year will be my fourth year in marching band, I am still in Color Guard and it is easily one of the activities I’m most passionate about. My love to perform on the marching field takes away the anxiety I usually have, throughout the years my confidence has risen…
Through his book Whiteness of a Different Color, Matthew Frye Jacobson explores the intricacies of what is described as whiteness throughout United States history. Jacobson opens his introductory chapter by describing the roots of race in society. He describes how society has long seen race to be a result of biological differences, but that scholars have recently questioned this notion with classificational conventions of interracial children, along with the idea that some races have either emerged or disappeared entirely from the eyes of the public, whereas their descendents still exist. Jacobson first introduces the idea that race is created, not biological, with an excerpt from Philip Roth’s Counterlife, in which two characters argue over…
