Question
Chapter 23, Problem 39QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The preparation of magnesium oxide using magnesium and concentrated nitric acid is to be described.
Concept introduction:
Magnesium oxide (MgO), magnesia, is a white hygroscopic solid mineral that occurs naturally as periclase and is used as source of magnesium.
Magnesium oxide was historically known as magnesia alba.
Magnesium oxide is a stable molecule.
Magnesium is a metal and oxygen are a non-metal, both combine to form magnesium oxide and is held together by ionic bonds.

- The amount of sodium hypochlorite in a bleach solution can be determined by using a given volume of bleach to oxidize excess iodide ion to iodine, because the reaction goes to completion. The amount of iodine produced is then determined by titration with sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3, which is oxidized to sodium tetrathionate, Na2S4O6. Potassium iodide was added in excess to 5.00 mL of bleach (density = 1.00 g/mL). This solution, containing the iodine released in the reaction, was titrated with 0.100 M Na2S2O3. If 34.6 mL of sodium thiosulfate was required to reach the endpoint (detected by disappearance of the blue color of the starch iodine complex), what was the mass percentage of NaClO in the bleach?arrow_forwardUsing data in Appendix 1, estimate the temperature at which Fe2O3 can be reduced to iron, using hydrogen gas as a reducing agent (assume H2O(g) is the other product).arrow_forward
