The ingredients in herbicides and pesticides must be carefully monitored. Arsenic in a pesticide sample was precipitated as MgNH4AsO4 (molar mass = 181.25 g/mol). This was heated to form the more stable Mg2As2O7 (molar mass = 310.45 g/mol). Based on the following data, what is the numeric value of the gravimetric factor for the sample?
Come up with a dilution scheme for a test solution starting from 1000 μg/mL Mn stock solution so that the concentration of permanganate in the solution just prior to measurement is approx. 20 μg/mL MnO4-. Carefully read the units!
The mercury in a 1.1113-g sample was precipitated with an excess of paraperiodic acid, H5IO6: 5Hg2+ + 2H5IO6 → Hg5(IO6)2 + 10H+ The precipitate was filtered, washed free of precipitating agent, dried, and weighed, and 0.4733 g was recovered. Calculate the percentage of Hg2Cl2 in the sample. _______%
The aluminum in a 2.200-g sample of impure ammonium aluminum sulfate was precipitated with aqueous ammonia as the hydrous ‍‍Al2O3⋅xH2O. The precipitate was filtered and ignited at 1000°C to give anhydrous Al2O3, which weighed 0.3006 g. Express the result of this analysis in terms of a. %NH4Al(SO4)2 b. %Al2O3 c. %Al
BSA for concentration measurements is often prepared as a 10 mg/mL stock solution. Suppose you wish to prepare a series of 10 mL solutions of BSA at 1.0, 0.8, 0.6, 0.4, and 0.2 mg/mL. Using the dilution equation C1 × V1 = C2 × V2, you plan to do this by transferring a calculated volume (V1) of the 10 mg/mL (C1) into a clean test tube, then adding water in sufficient volume to produce 10 mL (V2) at the desired concentration (C2). Complete the table below, showing the volume of stock 10 mg/mL solution you need to add to each tube, and the volume of water you need to add to each. Also, convert the desired mg/mL concentration values to their equivalent in μM (micromolar; 10-6 M).
Solutions of cyanide salts are still widely used in the extraction of gold metal from its ores. It is thereforenecessary to regularly monitor the quality of the reagents used to make such solutions.The purity of a sample of solid potassium cyanide is determined as follows: 5.00 g of the impure potassium cyanide is weighed off, and quantitatively transferred into a100.00 mL volumetric flask, dissolved and made up to the mark. A 10.00 mL portion of this solution is pipetted into a conical flask, and titrated with a 0.200 MKMnO4 solution. The endpoint of the titration is determined when the colourless solution in the conical flask turns abright pink due to the presence of excess permanganate ions. The average titration value is 20.69 mL of the KMnO4 solution.The reaction stoichiometry is as follows: 2KMno4(aq) + 3KCN(aq) + H2O(l) → 2MnO2(s) +3KOCN(aq) + 2KOH(aq) ૝1.1 Determine the percentage purity of the potassium cyanide.

"In a similar experiment as described in the example presented in the discussion section, a student, in order to confirm the empirical stoichiometry of yttrium (III) nitrate, prepared a solution of the metal salt by dissolving .7168 g of yttrium (III) nitrate hexahydrate in a 200 mL volumetric flask with distilled , deionized water. The student also prepared a solution of sodium hydroxide by volumetrically diluting 50mL of .5211M sodium hydroxide to 250 mL. Calculate the concentrations of both solutions. What volume of the yttrium nitrate solution would be required to produce a minimum of 5.0 x 10^-4 moles of yttrium ?
Andrew dissolved 10.00 grams of an iron ore sample in 5.00 L of acid to produce a stock solution. Josh ran a trial of the analytical procedure on the stock solution, but found the solution was too concentrated to be used. So Josh prepared a 1:250 dilution of the sample solution, and, after running the analytical procedure successfully, found the solution contained 1.62 x 10-5 mol/L Fe2+ (aq). What is the mass of iron in the meteorite sample?
