We began the chapter with an informal discussion of how the mineral fluorite (as shown) is formed. Fluorite, CaF2, is a slightly soluble solid that dissolves according to the equation: CaF2(s) ⇌ Ca2+(aq) + 2F−(aq)The concentration of Ca2+ in a saturated solution of CaF2 is 2.15 × 10–4 M; therefore, that of F– is 4.30 × 10–4 M, that is, twice the concentration of Ca2+. What is the solubility product of fluorite?

Hardness in groundwater is due to the presence of metal ions, primarily Mg2+and Ca2+. Hardness is generally reported asppm (mg/L) CaCO3or mmol/L Ca2+. To measure water hardness, a sample of groundwater is titrated with EDTA, a chelating agent, in the presence of the indicator eriochrome black T, symbolized here as In. Eriochrome black T, a weaker chelating agent than EDTA, is red in the presence of Ca2+and turns blue when Ca2+is removed. A 50.00-mL sample of groundwater is titrated with 0.0850M EDTA. Assume that Ca2+accounts for all of the hardness in the groundwater. If 10.10 mL of EDTA is required to titrate the 50.00-mL sample, what is the hardness of the groundwater in molarity Ca2+and in ppm CaCO3?
Iron (55.845 g/mol) can be determined gravimetrically by precipitation as Fe(OH)3 (106.867 g/mol) and subsequent inflammation of the precipitate to convert it to Fe2O3 (159.69 g/mol). A 0.7873 g sample to be analyzed was weighed and transferred to a 400 mL beaker, where it was dissolved in 50 mL of H2O and 10 mL of 6M HCl. Then 2 mL of concentrated HNO3 was added to the solution. After boiling to remove excess HNO3 and nitrogen oxides, the solution was diluted to 200 mL, brought to boiling, and Fe(OH)3 was precipitated by the slow addition of 1:1 NH4OH solution until an odor of NH3 was detected (indicating the presence of excess NH3 in the medium). The solution was left in a water bath at 80 ºC for 30 min at rest. The precipitate was then filtered and washed with several portions of hot 1% m/v NH4NO3 until no Cl– was detected in the wash water. Finally, the precipitate was ignited at 500-550 °C, then left in a desiccator to cool and weighed as Fe2O3, resulting in a mass of 0.4512 g.…
