Chapter 3, Problem 93SCQ
The presence of arsenic in a sample that may also contain another Group 5A element, antimony, can be confirmed by first precipitating the As3+ and Sb3+ ions as yellow solid As2S3 and orange solid Sb2S3. If aqueous HCI is then added, only Sb2S3 dissolves, leaving behind solid As2S3. The As2S3 can then be dissolved using aqueous HNO3.
3 As2S3(s) + 10 HNO3(aq) + 4 H2O(ℓ) → 6 H3AsO4(aq) + 10 NO(g) + 9 S(s)
Finally, the presence of arsenic is confirmed by adding AgNO3 to the solution of H3AsO4 to precipitate a reddish brown solid AgxAsOy The composition of this solid is As, 16.199% and Ag, 69.964%.
(a) What are the oxidation numbers of As, S, and N in the reaction of As2S3 with nitric acid?
(b) What is the formula of the reddish brown solid AgxAsOy?

A 0.7336-g sample of an alloy that contains copper and zinc is dissolved in 8 M HCl and diluted to 100 mL in a volumetric flask. In one analysis, the zinc (At. Mass = 65.38 g/mol) in a 25.00-mL portion of the solution is precipitated as ZnNH4PO4, and isolated as Zn2P2O7 (FM = 304.70g/mol), yielding 0.1163 g. The copper (At. Mass = 63.55 g/mol) in a separate 25.00-mL portion of the solution is treated to precipitate CuSCN (121.63 g/mol), yielding 0.2383 g. Calculate the %w/w Zn and the %w/w Cu in the sample.
