Question
One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(II) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(II) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(II) sulfate. Scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction :

- A 36.0 mL sample of aqueous sulfuric acid was titrated with 0.250 M ROH(aq) until the acid-base indicator signaled that the solution was neutralized. The mixture was then carefully evaporated to dryness, the residue was dried in a drying oven. The residue was then weighed and a value of 861 mg was obtained for its mass.

- The traditional method of analysis for the amount of chloride ion present in a sample is to dissolve the sample in water and then slowly to add a solution of silver nitrate. Silver chloride is very insoluble in water, and by adding silver nitrate, it is possible effectively to remove all chloride ion from the sample. Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → AgCl(s) Suppose a 1.515 g sample is known to contain 27.5% chloride ion by mass. What mass of silver nitrate must be used to completely precipitate the chloride ion from the sample?arrow_forwardA titration is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution by allowing it to react with another solution of known concentration (called a standard solution). Acid-base reactions and oxidation-reduction reactions are used in titrations. For example, to find the concentration of an HCl solution (an acid), a standard solution of NaOH (a base) is added to a measured volume of HCl from a calibrated tube called a buret. An indicator is also present and it will change color when all the acid has reacted. Using the concentration of the standard solution and the volume dispensed, we can calculate molarity of the HCl solution. Redox titrations are used to determine the amounts of oxidizing and reducing agents in solution. For example, a solution of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, can be titrated against a solution of potassium permanganate, KMnO4. The following equation represents the reaction: 2KMnO4(aq)+H2O2(aq)+3H2SO4(aq)→3O2(g)+2MnSO4(aq)+K2SO4(aq)+ 4H2O(l) A certain amount of…arrow_forwardYou have been provided with a 2.08 x 10-2 L sample of lithium hydroxide (LiOH) of unknown concentration.
