- According to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), waste material is classified as toxic and must be handled as hazardous if the lead concentration exceeds 5 mg/L. By adding chloride ion, the lead ion will precipitate as PbCl2, which can be separated from the liquid portion. Once the lead has been removed, the rest of the waste can be sent to a conventional waste treatment facility. How many grams of sodium chloride must be added to 500 L of a waste solution to reduce the concentration of the Pb2+ ion from 10 to 5 mg/L?arrow_forwardA student weighs out a 4.80-g sample of aluminum bromide, transfers it to a 100-mL volumetric flask, adds enough water to dissolve it, and then adds water to the 100-mL mark.

- Relative solubilities of salts in liquid ammonia can differsignificantly from those in water. Thus, silver bromide issoluble in ammonia, but barium bromide is not (thereverse of the situation in water). Write a balanced equation for the reaction of anammonia solution of barium nitrate with an ammoniasolution of silver bromide. Silver nitrate is soluble inliquid ammonia.

The first student pipets 20.0 mL of the HCl solution into a flask, adds 20 mL of distilled water and a few drops of phenolphthalein solution, and titrates until a lasting pink color appears. The second student pipets 20.0 mL of the HCl solution into a flask, adds 60 mL of distilled water and a few drops of phenolphthalein solution, and titrates to the first lasting pink color. Each student correctly calculates the molarity of an HCl solution. What will the second students result be? (a) four times less than the first students result (b) four times greater than the first students result (c) two times less than the first students result (d) two times greater than the first students result (e) the same as the first students resultarrow_forwardA 10.00-mL sample of a 24.00% solution of ammonium bromide (NH4Br) requires 23.41 mL of 1.200 molar silver nitrate (AgNO3) to react with all of the bromide ion present.

- Consider an experiment in which two burets, Y and Z, are simultaneously draining into a beaker that initially contained 275.0 mL of 0.300 M HCl. Buret Y contains 0.150 M NaOH and buret Z contains 0.250 M KOH. The stoichiometric point in the titration is reached 60.65 minutes after Y and Z were started simultaneously. The total volume in the beaker at the stoichiometric point is 655 mL. Calculate the flow rates of burets Y and Z. Assume the flow rates remain constant during the experiment.arrow_forwardSome of the substances commonly used in stomach antacids are MgO, Mg(OH)2, and Al(OH)3. a.
