How could we modify the procedure to expedite the analysis of milk of magnesia?
This lab deals with back titration and analysis of different commercial antacids. (milk of magnesia, rolaids, buffering). Antacids have one purpose: to neutralize excess Hydrogen ion in stomach and thus relieve acid indigestion.
Milk of Magnesia, an aqueous suspension of Mg(OH)2 is a simple antacid that neutralizes H+ according to the reaction: Mg(OH2) + 2H+ --> Mg2+ + 2H2O
I have no idea how to modify the procedure to expedite the analysis of milk of mganesisa, please give me any help.
Thanks.
