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?

H2. Titrations are performed by a scientist in the laboratory as follows: a solution of deuterated hydrochloric acid contains 1.08 g DCl in 750 ml of deionised, distilled water. An average amount of 14.95 ml of the DCl(aq) solution is titrated with 25.0 ml of Ca(OH)2 to produce an endpoint (as determined by an appropriate indicator). What is the molarity of the Ca(OH)2 solution? You must include all of your calculations Please give typed answer

In analytical chemistry, one of the key steps in quantitative analysis is the determination of the concentration of an analyte in a sample. Consider a scenario where you need to determine the concentration of a particular metal ion in a water sample. Design an analytical procedure and discuss the key steps involved in obtaining an accurate and precise concentration measurement.
