A student was careful to make and stir all of her standard solutions immediately before measuring their turbidity for her calibration curve. However, she let her tap water solutions sit for 10 minutes prior to measuring their turbidity. If she measured the top portion of the solution, would her experimental sulfate ion concentration be higher or lower than it should be?

You want to determine the concentration of NaCl in a water. In preliminary analysis, it appears to be saline water with a NaCl content of approximately 4%. Should you dilute the sample if your titrant has a concentration of 0.1 M and you want to spend 25 mL of sample? Solution: You must dilute approximately ten times, taking 10 mL of sample and making up to 100 mL. In this way, 17.20 mL of titrant will be spent.
Write your complete solutions on yellow paper, round your answers to the appropriate number of significant figures, and box the final answer. The deadline for submission is at the end of the class. Note: You do not need to write your solutions for the items that can be derived from your calculators. 1. Three students (Saerom, Hayoung, and Jiwon) are asked to determine the ppm Ca in a drinking water sample by titration with EDTA. Each student performed five trials for the sample. The results in ppm Ca are the following: Saerom Hayoung Jiwon a. Get the mean, SD, and % RSD of each student's results. b.

A forensic chemist is given a white powder by the investigator of a crime scene. The investigator wants to know if the powder is a pure substance or a mixture. The chemist dissolves some of the powder in deionized water making a clear solution. She finds that a precipitate forms when she adds an excess aqueous solution of sodium chloride. She filters the precipitate and washes it several times with deionized water. To this filtrate she then adds an aqueous solution of sodium carbonate. A precipitate forms. Question: Draw two pictures representing a molecular / atomic / ionic view of what occurred when a precipitate formed with the addition of sodium chloride solution. Choose the type of particle that is the most appropriate for this reaction. Place charges on any ions indicating charge values (+1, -2, etc.) when they are known. If charges are unknown indicate whether the ion is positive or negative. Clearly indicate which picture represents before the reaction occurs. Should…
50 mL of stock solution were taken and added to flask. Then 50 mL of Di water were added to the flask. This is solution 1. Then 50mL of solution 1 were taken and added to a flask and 50 mL of Di water were added to the flask. This is solution 2. Then 50mL of solution 2 were taken and added to a flask and 50 mL of Di water were added to the flask. This is solution 3. Then 50mL of solution 3 were taken and added to a flask and 50 mL of Di water were added to the flask. This is solution 4. Find the concetrations of each solution.

A 0.1 g amine-containing compound is dissolved in water then diluted to 100 mL. You subject it to spectroscopic analysis, in order to get the concentration of amine in this compound. Next, you get 1 mL of the previously diluted sample then dilute it again to 250 mL for measurement. Then, you fill 3/4 of a 1-cm cuvette with this diluted sample, and you run an analysis using an AAS. The recorded absorbance is 0.545 at 410 nm. What is the molecular weight of the compound? (The molar absorptivity is 1.23 x 104 cm-1 mol-1 L.)
1. A solution is known to contain 38.04 ± 0.03 mM KCl, and you have taken an aliquot of this solution using a pipette calibrated to deliver 20.013 ±0.006 mL. Determine the number of moles of KCl that are delivered in the aliquot, including the absolute uncertainly in that value. 2. You deliver the aliquot taken in problem 1 into a volumetric flask with a volume of 250.00 mL ± 0.02 % and dilute the solution to volume in the flask using Dl water. What is the concentration of KCl in this flask, report your answer with the absolute uncertainty. 3. Tabulated below are replicate titration volumes for an analysis.
