1. (10 points) My water at home is a bit hard. The Ca2+ level is 90 ppm. What is this concentration in moles/liter? Ppm = (mass solute/mass solution) x 106 Assume 1 liter = 1 kg 90 = (x/1000g) x106 90/106 = X/1000g 1000(90/106) g = .09g/l .09g x (1mole/ 40.08g) = 2.25x10-3 M Faster way 1 ppm = 1 :g/ml = 1 mg/l; 90 ppm = 90 mg/L = .09g/l...

2. (10 points) I am going to make a primary standard solution for a titration. The electronic balance is broken, so I have to use an old mechanical balance that does not tare. The weight of my paper is .402g, the weight of my sample and paper together is 1.245g. The molecular weight of my standard is 204.223 g/mol. I make my solution by placing all of the standard in a 250 ml volumetric flask. The volumetric flask is marked as 250 .12 ml. What is the molarity of my primary standard solution? What is the uncertainty in this number? Wt = 1.245 (.001) - .402 (.001) = .843 sqrt(.0012 + .0012) (addition/subtraction) =.843 .0014 Molarity = mole/liter = (.843(.0014) / 204.223)/(.250.00012)L (assume uncertainty in MW is not significant) (Multipilcation/division)

3. (10 points) For the following data determine the mean, median, and mode (10,11,10,11,6,12,11,13) mean = (10+11+10+11+6+12+11+13)/8 = 10.50 Median = middle value sort in order 6,10,10,11,11,11,12,13 4th and 5 th values are 11 so median is 11 Mode = value that appears the most = 11 (occurs 3 times) 4. (10 points) I have 2 sets of data. Set 1 has 10 samples with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 5. My second set of data has 8 samples and a standard deviation of 5 What value would the mean of my second set of data have to be, to be considered statistically different than the first set at a 95% confidence level? Two equations that apply here are:

t=

x1 x2 s pooled

n1n2 n1 + n2

s pooled =

2 s12 (n1 1) + s2 (n2 1) n1 + n2 2

s pooled = =5

52 (10 1) + 52 (8 1) 10 + 8 2

With 18 samples total my degrees of freedom is 16, Unfortunately the table I gave you only had 10 or 20 for degrees of freedom, so you use the 10 and get a t of 2.228 for the 95% confidence level.

100 X 10 8 5 10 + 8 100 X 2.228 = 2.108 5 2.228 5 = 100 X 2.108 5.285 = 100 X 2.228 = X < 94.715 or X > 105.285

5. Describe three different methods that can be used to find the endpoint in a precipitation reaction involving the Ag+ ion 1. You can use an electrode to follow the electrical potential of the silver in the solution 2. You can use the Fajans method. It is a dye that wont bind to the crystal lattice when Clis in excess, but will bind to the crystal when Ag+ is in excess to you see a color change. 3. You can use the Volhard method. In this method you add an excess of Ag+, then do a back titration of the excess Ag+ with SCN-. The endpoint of the second titration is detected through the use of Fe3+ which forms a red complex with SCN- when you reach pass the endpoint and have excess SCN- in the solution.

6. (10 points) Calculate the concentrations of [Ag+], [Cl-] and [Na +] in a solution where I mix 50 ml of 1M NaCl with 50 ml of 1M AgNO3. (The K sp of AgCl is 1.8x10-10) In this solution you are mixing Ag+ and Cl- in equimolar amounts, so you will get a precipitate. All I want is the Ag+ and Cl- that remains in solution after the precipitation occurs, and that is described by the K sp equation: Ksp = 1.8x10-10 = [Ag+][Cl-] Assume X = [Ag+]= [Cl-]; 1.8x10-10 = X 2 X=sqrt(1.8x10-10) X = 1.34x10-5

(20 points)(Propagation of uncertainty & titration calculation) Consider the titration of 50.(.1) ml of a mixture of I- and SCN- with 0.0663(0.0002) M Ag+. The Ksp of AgI is 8.3x10-17, the K sp of AgSCN is 1.1x10-12 A. Which precipitate first, AgI or AgSCN B. The first equivalence point in this titration is observed at 13.3 (0.3) ml, and the second is observed at 29.3 (0.2) ml. Find the molarity and the uncertainty in molarity of the thiocyanate in the first solution

6. (10 points) Below are two sets of data. A.) Determine the mean, standard deviation, and relative standard deviation and 95% confidence interval of each data set. The B data set contains an outlier data point - should this datum be retained or dropped from the data set? Set A: 45.6, 44.7, 46.3, 45.5, 46.0, 44.9, 47.1 Set B: 45.2, 47.1, 46.7, 47.1, 50.0, 46.2, 45.8 B. Would you consider these sets of data statistically the same or different at the 99% confidence level? (If you throw out a data point in B set, do the comparison after the datum is removed.)

7. (10 points) Below is some data used to obtain a line of best fit x 1 2 3 4 y 1.8 3 5.2

Notice that the Y value for the third point is missing. If the equation for the line of best fit is y = 1.1x + .7 and the D [ ( n

) ( xi ) 2 ] is 20, what is the missing y value?

5A. AgI has the lower K sp so it precipitates first 5B. The Ag used to precipitate the SCN- is found by the volume between the 1 st and second endpoints, thus the volume of Ag+ delivered is: Volume of Ag+ = 29.3(0.2)-13.3(0.3) =16.0sqrt[.2 2 + .32] =16.0.36(absolute) Molarity = Mole/volume = [.016(.00036) .0663(.0002)]/.05(.0001) =.0212 sqrt[(.00013/.016)2 + (.0002/.0663)2 + (.0001/.05)2] =0.0212 . 23 (relative) = .0212.0005(absolute) 6 ( I used a spreadsheet) Average Set 1 45.73 Set 2 46.87 All values

This worked OK, and I accepted this, but some of your spreadsheets didnt give enough sig figs for m and b, so you got numbers that were not =3.8 for Y
