Question
The concentration of arsenic in an insecticide can be determined gravimetrically by precipitating it as MgNH4AsO4. The
precipitate is ignited and weighed as Mg2As2O7. Determine the %w/w As2O3 in a 1.627-g sample of insecticide that
yields 106.5 mg of Mg2As2O7.

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: Fe(s) + CUSO 4(aq) Cu(s) + FeSO4(aq) Suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. He adds powdered iron to a 450. mL copper(II) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass of 147. mg. Calculate the original concentration of copper(II) sulfate in the sample.
