The magnesium in a series of soil samples was characterized by atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The instrument was calibrated with a series of standards: 0, 50.00, 100.00, 250.00 mg/L MgSO47H2O. These samples produced average instrument readings of 0.005; 0.192 ; 0.401 ; and 0.993. Triplicate analysis of an unknown yielded instrument readings of 0.328, 0.340, 0.335. What is the average concentration and standard deviation of the unknown? Report your answer as ppm Mg. THE OPTION IS NOT 211

100 mL of a saturated solution of magnesium palmitate, Mg(C16H31O2)2, is prepared at 25 °C. The Ksp is 3.3 × 10^-12 . To this solution is added 0.015 g of magnesium palmitate and the temperature is raised to 50 °C. The Ksp is 4.8 × 10^-12. How much of the solid magnesium palmitate remains?

==

I understand that the lower the Ksp, the less soluble a compound (lower molar solubility). I have a final on tuesday morning and would like to learn how to approach this question. Thanks so much!

A 1.268 g sample of a metal carbonate (MCO3)was treated with 100.00 mL of 0.1083 M sulfuric acid (H2SO4), yielding CO2 gas and an aqueous solution of the metal sulfate (MSO4). The solution was boiled to remove all the dissolved CO2 and was then titrated with 1.241×10−2 MNaOH. A 91.86 mL volume of NaOH was required to neutralize the excess H2SO4.

A) What is the identity of the metal M?

Methane is a clean gaseous fuel used in chemical industries worldwide. 1000 kmol/hr of methane is combusted in a burner to provide heat. The combustion reaction is:
CH4 + O2 à CO2 + H2O
Air is used for combustion and it can be assumed to be composed of 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen. Nitrogen is considered inert and does not undergo any oxidation reaction.
The inlet pressure for all stream is atmospheric.
Use a conversion reactor in VMGSim simulation package to simulate burner. Assume that the heat loss to surrounding is negligible (very well insulated burner). Pressure drop across the burner is assumed to be 10 kPa. Assume adiabatic conditions with methane conversion of 95%. Follow the simulation guideline (to be provided) and having converged the simulation, export the results to WORD. The followings can be easily determined from the results:
1- Properties of exhaust gases such as average specific heat, enthalpy, entropy, thermal conductivity, viscosity etc.
2- Composition of exhaust gases from the burner in mole% and mass%
3- The flow rate of each component in the exhaust gas in Kg/h
4- Temperature of exhaust gases
5- Pressure of exhaust gases
6- Volumetric flow rate of gases
Now repeat the simulation assuming the you use 50% excess air. You need to increase the mole fraction in the inlet stream to burner. Keeping all other conditions the same, compare the results of the two simulation and answer the following questions in the report. You may add these to the report (exported to WORD).
1- Is the final temperature lower or higher? Why?
2- Is there a change in reaction enthalpy? Explain.
3- Is there any change in specific heats?
