Chapter 9, Problem 9.99GP

To prevent accumulation of ice on roads and sidewalks, many municipalities (and home-owners) will apply de-icing compounds to “melt” the ice by lowering the freezing point.

(a)    Obtain a package of de-icing compound/mixture and identify the ingredients or look up the composition. Are the compounds ionic or molecular? Discuss possible reasons for the use of these compounds and for the specific compounds used in the formulations.

(b)    Some de-icing compositions include dyes or colored compounds called indicators. Why?

Determine the weight/volume of the chemicals needed to prepare the following solutions:  a) 100 ml of 0.9% (w/v) saline (NaCl)  b)  30 ml of 50% glycerol (v/v) 
  c) Electrophoresis requires TAE, which is a specific mixture of Tris base, acetic acid, and EDTA. TAE is normally made as a 50X concentrated stock. Provide a recipe to make 40 ml of 50X TAE.   The recipe for one liter of 50X TAE is as follows: 242g Tris base, 57.1 ml glacial acetic acid, 100 ml 0.5 M EDTA
b) What is the function of using the following chemicals in the Determination of Zinc in Pharmaceutical Preparations by Ion Exchange Separation and Complexometric Titration experiment: Concentrated HCI, 1.5 M HCI, 0.5 M nitric acid, 4 M sodium hydroxide, 2 g of hexamine, methylthymol blue indicator and 0.01 M EDTA.
As a part of a clinical study, a pharmacist is asked to prepare a modification of a standard 22 g package of a 2% mupirocin ointment by adding the needed quantity of mupirocin powder to prepare a 3% w/w mupirocin ointment. How many mil- ligrams of mupirocin powder are required?
