Principles of General Chemistry
- Zinc acetate is sometimes prescribed by physicians for the treatment of Wilsons disease, which is a genetically caused condition wherein copper accumulates to toxic levels in the body. If you were to analyze a sample of zinc acetate and find that it contains 3.33 1023 acetate ions, how many grams of zinc acetate must be present in the sample?arrow_forwardBacterial digestion is an economical method of sewage treatment. The reaction is an intermediate step in the conversion of the nitrogen in organic compounds into nitrate ions. What mass of bacterial tissue is produced in a treatment plant for every 1.0 104 kg of wastewater containing 3.0% NH4+ ions by mass? Assume that 95% of the ammonium ions are consumed by the bacteria.arrow_forward3.122 What type of reasoning were we using when we developed the equation for dilution, MiVi=MfVf ?arrow_forward
- 3.120 1f you have 32.6 g of sodium carbonate that is dissolved to give 2.10 L of solution, what is the molarity of the solution? What is the molarity of the sodium ions?arrow_forward4.28 One of the steps in the manufacture of nitric acid is the oxidation of ammonia shown in this equation: 4NH3(g)+5O2(g)4NO(g)+6H2O(g) If 43.0 kg of NH3 reacts with 35.4 kg of O2, what mass of NO forms?arrow_forward4.107 Existing stockpiles of the refrigerant Freon-12, CF2Cl2 must be destroyed under the terms of the Montreal Protocol because of their potential for banning the ozone layer. One method for doing this involves reaction with sodium oxalate: CF 2 Cl 2 + 2Na 2 C 2 O 4 2NaF+2NaCl+C+ 4CO 2 S If you had 150 tons of Freon-12, describe how you would know how much sodium oxalate you would need to make that conversion. Freon-12, CF2Cl2arrow_forward
- 3.105 Nitric acid is often sold and transported as a concentrated 16 M aqueous solution. How many gallons of such a solution would be needed to contain the roughly 2.1109 pounds of HNO3 produced annually in the United States?arrow_forwardWhat is the molarity of a solution of strontium chloride that is prepared by dissolving 4.11 g SrCl2 in enough water to form 1.00-L solution? What is the molarity of each ion in the solution?arrow_forwardA solution of scandium chloride was treated with silver nitrate. The chlorine in the scandium compound was converted to silver chloride, AgCl. A 58.9-mg sample of scandium chloride gave 167.4 mg of silver chloride. What are the mass percentages of Sc and Cl in scandium chloride? What is its empirical formula?arrow_forward
