A bucket has 100 m3 of air, 60 m3 of water and 3 m3 of sediment. You add 2 mol of benzene to the water in the bucket. 1) Draw a conceptual model of this system. 2) Using arrows or some other symbols, identify what will happen to the benzene at equilibrium. Write the mass balance for this. Is it open or closed? Write the mass balance for an open system. What is fugacity used for? What is the difference between steady state and equilibrium?

For the CO2 impact experiment station: 1) Obtain two plastic cups, red cabbage indicator, a straw, and plastic wrap. 2) Fill each cup approximately one-quarter to one-third full of tap water and add ~10 mL of the red cabbage indicator. 3) Place the two cups side by side on a sheet of white paper. 4) Place the straw into one of the beakers and cover that beaker with the plastic wrap. 5) Carefully blow bubbles into the test cup for 3 min. and observe both cups. 6) Compare the color to the control cup and record any differences. This the Question: Did the beaker with the solution into which CO2 was bubbled change pH/color? By how much? Is this what, you would predict, based on your knowledge of the chemistry of CO2?
You are employed as a coop student at the Drug and Alcohol Testing Association of Canada (DATAC) developing analytical tests for sports doping agents. You are asked to prepare a procedure for the extraction of methylphenidate, the active compound in Ritalin, from urine samples (consider them as simple aqueous layers, you do not need to consider other components!). The goal of the procedure is to extract the methylphenidate into an organic layer which will then be evaporated, and the residue will be tested for the drug.You find that methylphenidate is highly soluble in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, a bio-renewable solvent. Draw the structure of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran and give two reasons why it is a good solvent choice for liquid-liquid extraction.

The goal of the procedure is to extract the methylphenidate into an organic layer which will then be evaporated, and the residue will be tested for the drug.Your colleague is helping you develop the urine test. They suggest that the urine should be adjusted to a pH above 7 before extracting with the organic solvent. Why is this necessary? Support your explanation with a full arrow-pushing mechanism for the reaction that would occur if the pH was below 7. Include all formal charges, intermediates (if applicable) and products.
Volumetric Analysis The mass of KHC8H4O4 is measured to the nearest milligram; however, the volume of water in which it is dissolved is never of concern—water is even added to the wall of the Erlenmeyer flask during the titration. Explain why water added to the KHC8H4O4 has no effect on the data, whereas water added to the NaOH solution, may drastically affect the data.

suppose your absent minded lab partner grabbed medium porosity filter paper instead of the fine porosity paper and you noticed cloudiness in your filtrate. will the reported concentration of limiting reactant solution be greater than, less than, or equal to the true concentration of limiting reactant solution? Na3PO4 and BaCl2 are the solutions used

. The total cation content of natural water is often determined by exchanging the cations for hydrogen ions on an ion exchange resin. The cations are adsorbed to the resin which releases H+ (1:1 exchange) which can then be titrated with a base. A 25.0 mL sample of a natural water is diluted to 100 mL with distilled water and 2.0 g of a cation-exchange resin was added. After stirring, the mixture was filtered and the solid remaining on the filter paper was washed with three 15.0 mL portions of distilled water. The filtrate and washing required 15.3 mL of 0.0202 M NaOH to reach the equivalence pt. Calculate the number of moles of cation present in 1.00 L of sample.
