Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The amount of calcium in the given sample of blood has to be calculated using the principles of titrimetry.
Concept Introduction:
Titration is a widely used method for the determination of unknown concentration of an analyte. In order to determine the unknown concentration, the analyte of known volume is titrated with the titrant of known volume and concentration. The unknown concentration of the analyte is found by the following equation.
Where,
This formula is applicable when one mole of analyte is reacting with one mole of the titrant.
After calculating the unknown concentration of the analyte, its weight is gram is calculated.
Mole is the amount of substance having

- Some metals, such as thallium, can be oxidized to more than one oxidation state. Obtain the balanced net ionic equations for the following oxidation reduction reactions, in which nitric acid is reduced to nitric oxide, NO. a Oxidation of thallium metal to thallium(I) ion by nitric acid. b Oxidation of thallium(I) ion to thallium(III) ion by nitric acid. c Oxidation of thallium metal to thallium(III) by nitric acid. [Consider adding the a and b equations.]arrow_forwardAn aqueous solution of an unknown salt of gold is electrolyzed by a current of 2.75 amps for 3.39 hours. The electroplating is carried out with an efficiency of 93.0%, resulting in a deposit of 21.221 g of gold. a How many faradays are required to deposit the gold? b What is the charge on the gold ions (based on your calculations)?arrow_forwardA galvanic cell is based on the following half-reactions: In this cell, the copper compartment contains a copper electrode and [Cu2+] = 1.00 M, and the vanadium compartment contains a vanadium electrode and V2+ at an unknown concentration. The compartment containing the vanadium (1.00 L of solution) was titrated with 0.0800 M H2EDTA2, resulting in the reaction H2EDTA2(aq)+V2+(aq)VEDTA2(aq)+2H+(aq)K=? The potential of the cell was monitored to determine the stoichiometric point for the process, which occurred at a volume of 500.0 mL H2EDTA2 solution added. At the stoichiometric point, was observed to be 1 .98 V. The solution was buffered at a pH of 10.00. a. Calculate before the titration was carried out. b. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant, K, for the titration reaction. c. Calculate at the halfway point in the titration.arrow_forward

The solution is a constant 1.0 M in chloride ion and 0.020 M in each complex ion. Is it feasible to separate the three metals from this solution by electrolysis? (Assume that 99% of a metal must be plated out before another metal begins to plate out.)arrow_forwardAn electrochemical cell consists of a nickel metal electrode immersed in a solution with [Ni2+] = 1.0 M separated by a porous disk from an aluminum metal electrode immersed in a solution with [Al3+] = 1.0 M. Sodium hydroxide is added to the aluminum compartment, causing Al(OH)3(s) to precipitate.
