Chapter 10, Problem 10PEB
Iron(III) oxide, or hematite, is one mineral used as an iron ore. Other iron ores are magnetite (Fe3O4) and siderite (FeCO3). Assume that you have pure samples of all three ores that will be reduced by reaction with carbon monoxide. Which of the three ores will have the highest yield of metallic iron?

A cubic sample weighing 0.5524 g is composed of Titanium with a 2,0 at% single element impurity.
Its crystal structure is BCC (APF = 0.68, n 2, CN = 8), and when viewed under a microscope, it can
be seen that the sample contains 15,000,000 unit cells along any given edge of the cube. What
element is the impurity?

The clay mineral kaolinite (Al,Si,O;(OH)4) is formed by
the weathering action of water containing dissolved carbon
dioxide on the feldspar mineral anorthite (CaAl,Si,Og).
Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that
occurs. The CO, forms H,CO3 as it dissolves. As the pH is
lowered, will the weathering occur to a greater or a lesser
extent?
Potassium is a crucial element for the healthy operation of the human body. Potassium occurs naturally in our environment (and thus our bodies) as three isotopes: Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41. Their current abundances are 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%. A typical human body contains about 3.0 grams of Potassium per kilogram of body mass.
How much Potassium-40 is present in a person with a mass of 80 kg?
If, on average, the decay of Potassium-40 results in 1.10 MeV of energy absorbed, determine the effective dose (in Sieverts) per year due to Potassium-40 in an 80-kg body. Assume an RBE of 1.2. The half-life of Potassium-40 is 1.28 x 109 years.
