1) In the year 1618, England was experiencing a drought. Despite the shortage of water, cattle refused to drink from a certain pond in Epson Common. A man named Henry Wicker took some interest in this, and went over and drank a bit of the water himself. It tasted terribly bitter. He took some home and after boiling off the water he was left with Magnesium Sulfate crystals. This salt became known as "Epsom Salts" and soon after they were being used to treat constipation all over Europe. The three naturally occurring isotopes of magnesium are: magnesium-24(23.985 amu), magnesium-25(24.986 amu) and magnesium-26(26.983 amu). Their percent abundances in nature are 78.99%, 10.00% and 11.01% respectively. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium?

6. A student titrated 30.00 mL of a hydrochloric acid solution with 1.00 M sodium hydroxide. The sodium hydroxide was initially tilled to the 2.30 mL mark on the burette. Once the level in the burette reached 50.00 mL, the student was forced to refill the burette and did so to the 5.06 mL mark. The endpoint was finally reached when the sodium hydroxide level dropped to 32.09 mL on the burette. What is the molarity of the acid solution? Show work.
Titration is a type of experiment that can be performed to investigate a neutralization reaction. The equivalence point is when all of the acid and base is fully neutralized. A sample of 0.869 M aqueous potassium hydroxide was titrated against a standard solution of hydrochloric acid. What was the volume of the potassium hydroxide solution if 77.5 mL of 1.50 M hydrochloric acid was needed to reach the equivalence point? Enter a numerical answer only, in terms of mL.

Sonomic acid is a monoprotic acid developed in the chemistry department of Sacramento state University. The storeroom staff successfully obtained a sample of sonomic acid and made a solution. They made the solution by adding 302.4 g of sonomic acid and diluting it to a volume of 10.00 L with water. Unfortunately, the stockroom attendant, Steven , does not know the molar mass of sonomic acid so he could not calculate the molarity of the solution he prepared. It would be great if you could help him.
A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. He carefully weighs out 79. mg of oxalic acid (H,C,0,), a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in 250. mL of distilled water. The student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with his sodium hydroxide solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds he has used 23.0 mL of sodium hydroxide solution. Calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
A 4.277-g sample of Al2(SO4)a was dissolved in distilled water to make a total volume of 250.0 mL of solution A. Then an aliquot of 25.00 mL of solution A was diluted 10 times with distilled water to give solution B. Determine the molar concentration of the sulfate ions in solution B.
4. A 10.00-mL sample of a vinegar solution is titrated with a 0.178N NaOH solution. It requires 48.12 mL of the base solution to turn the solution in flask light pink. What is the amount of equivalent of base in the 48.12-mL portion? What is the amount of equivalent of the acid in the vinegar sample? What is the normality of the vinegar solution?
A 10.4 g sample of an aqueous solution of perchloric acid contains an unknown amount of the acid. If 24.3 mL of 0.481 M potassium hydroxide are required to neutralize the perchloric acid, what is the percent by mass of perchloric acid in the mixture?
3) When excess sliver nitrate was added to 25.00 ml of barium chloride, a precipitate of sliver chloride formed at the bottom of the beaker. If the mass of the precipitate was 4.30g, calculate the initial concentration of barium chloride.
