When writing an aim, it should be in the format of the Goal (what do you want to achieve) and the Means (how you plan to achieve it).

Read over Exercise 5 in your lab manual to assist you with completing the two aims for this experiment. Record these aims in your laboratory notebook, so that you will be able to address them when you write the conclusion for your lab report.

Aims:

1. To determine the concentration of a
   sodium bicarbonate

   carbonic acid

   sodium carbonate

   sodium hydroxide

   hydrochloric acid
   solution via titration against a standardised
   sodium bicarbonate

   carbonic acid

   sodium carbonate

   sodium hydroxide

   hydrochloric acid
   solution.
2. To determine the two pK_as of
   sodium bicarbonate

   carbonic acid

   sodium carbonate

   sodium hydroxide

   hydrochloric acid
   via titration of a
   sodium bicarbonate

   carbonic acid

   sodium carbonate

   sodium hydroxide

   hydrochloric acid
   solution against a hydrochloric acid solution.
