6. A 6.881-g sample containing magnesium chloride and sodium chloride was dissolved in sufficient water to give 500 mL of solution. Analysis for the chloride content of a 50.0-mL aliquot resulted in the formation of 0.5923 g of AgCl. The magnesium in a second 50.0-mL aliquot was precipitated as MgNH4PO4; on ignition, 0.1796 g of Mg2P207 was found. Calculate the percentage of MgC12 # 6H2O and of NaCl in the sample.

Twenty-five milliliters of a solution (d=1.107g/mL)containing 15.25% by mass of sulfuric acid is added to 50.0 mL of 2.45 M barium chloride. (a) What is the expected precipitate? (b) How many grams of precipitate are obtained? (c) What is the chloride concentration after precipitation is complete?
Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), NaHCO3, can be purified by dissolving it in hot water (60 C), filtering to remove insoluble impurities, cooling to 0 C to precipitate solid NaHCO3, and then filtering to remove the solid, leaving soluble impurities in solution. Any NaHCO3 that remains in solution is not recovered. The solubility of NaHCO3 in hot water of 60 C is 164 g/L. Its solubility in cold water of 0 C is 69 g/L. What is the percent yield of NaHCO3 when ills purified by this method?
Lead poisoning has been a hazard for centuries. Some scholars believe that the decline of the Roman Empire can be traced, in part, to high levels of lead in water from containers and pipes, and from wine that was stored in leadglazed containers. If we presume that the typical Roman water supply was saturated with lead carbonate, PbCO3 (Ksp = 7.4 1014), how much lead will a Roman ingest in a year if he or she drinks 1 L/day from the container?
Magnesium metal (a component of alloys used in aircraft and a reducing agent used in the production of uranium, titanium, and other active metals) is isolated from sea water by the following sequence of reactions: Mg2+(aq)+Ca(OH)2(aq)Mg(OH)2(s)+Ca2+(aq)Mg(OH)2(s)+2HCl(aq)MgCl2(s)+2H2O(l)MgCl2(l)electrolysisMg(s)+Cl2+Cl2(g) Sea water has a density of 1.026 g/cm3 and contains 1272 parts per million of magnesium a5 Mg2+(aq) by mass. What mass, in kilograms, of Ca(OH)2; is required to precipitate 99.9% of the magnesium in 1.00103 L of sea water?
A chemist dissolves a 1.497-g sample of a type of metal (an alloy of Sn, Pb, Sb, and Cu) in nitric acid, and metastannic acid, H2SnO3, is precipitated. She heats the precipitate to drive off the water, which leaves 0.4909 g of tin(IV) oxide. What was the percentage of [in in the original sample?
Ten mL of concentrated H3PO4 (91.7% by mass, d=1.69g/mL) was accidentally poured into a beaker containing 20.0 g of NaOH. Not all the NaOH was consumed. How many grams of NaOH were left unreacted? The equation for the reaction is H3PO4(aq)+3OH(aq)3H2O+PO43(aq)
The iron content of hemoglobin is determined by destroying the hemoglobin molecule and producing small water-soluble ions and molecules. The iron in the aqueous solution is reduced to iron(II) ion and then titrated against potassium permanganate. In the titration, iron(ll) is oxidized to iron(III) and permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion. A 5.00-g sample of hemoglobin requires 32.3 mL of a 0.002100 M solution of potassium permanganate. The reaction with permanganate ion is MnO4(aq)+8H+(aq)+5Fe2+(aq)Mn2+(aq)+5Fe3+(aq)+4H2O What is the mass percent of iron in hemoglobin?
68. Aluminum ion may be precipitated from aqueous solution by addition of hydroxide ion, forming Al(OH)3. A large excess of hydroxide ion must not be added, however, because the precipitate of Al(OH)3 will redissolve as a soluble compound containing aluminum ions and hydroxide ions begins to form. How many grains of solid NaOH should be added to 10.0 mL of 0.250 M A1Cl3 to just precipitate all the aluminum?
A sample of solid calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, is allowed to stand in water until a saturated solution is formed. A titration of 75.00 mL of this solution with 5.00102M HCl requires 36.6 mL of the acid to reach the end point. Ca(OH)2(aq)+2HCl(aq)CaCl2(aq)+2H2O(l) What is the molarity?
Chlorine gas was first prepared in 1774 by C. W. Scheele by oxidizing sodium chloride with manganese(IV) oxide. The reaction is NaCl(aq)+H2SO4(aq)+MnO2(s)Na2SO4(aq)+MnCl2(aq)+H2O(l)+Cl2(g) Balance this equation.
In a common medical laboratory determination of the concentration of free chloride ion in blood serum, a serum sample is titrated with a Hg( NO3)2 solution. 2Cl(aq)+Hg( NO3)2(aq)2NO3(aq)+HgCl2(s) What is the CF concentration in a 0.25-mL sample of normal serum that requires 1.46 mL of 8.25104M Hg( HO3)2(aq) to reach the end point?
The vanadium in a sample of ore is converted to VO2+. The VO2+ ion is subsequently titrated with MnO4 in acidic solution to form V(OH)4+ and manganese(II) ion. The unbalanced titration reaction is MnO4(aq)+VO2++(aq)+H2O(l)V(OH)4+(aq)+Mn2+(aq)+H+(aq) To titrate the solution, 26.45 mL of 0.02250 M MnO4 was required. If the mass percent of vanadium in the ore was 58.1 %, what was the mass of the ore sample? Hint: Balance the titration reaction by the oxidation states method.
