The ethyl mercaptan, C2H5SH, concentration in a mixture was determined by shaking a 1.534-g sample with 60.0 mL of 0.01293 M I2 in a tightly stoppered flask:
2C2H5SH + I2 → 2C2H5SSC2H5 + 2I- + 2H+
The excess I2 was back-titrated with 10.72 mL of 0.01425 M Na2S2O3:
2S2O32- + I2 → S4O62- + 2I-
Calculate the percentage of C2H5SH (FM = 62.13 g/mol) in the mixture.
(a) 5.67% (b) 3.32% (c) 1.24% (d) 4.33%

An air-purification method for enclosed spaces involves the use of "scrubbers" containing aqueous lithium hydroxide, which reacts with carbon dioxide to produce lithium carbonate and water: 2LiOH(aq) + CO2(g) → Li2CO3(s) + H2O(l) Consider the air supply in a submarine with a total volume of 1.6 × 105 L. The pressure is 0.9970 atm, and the temperature is 25°C. By how much would the pressure in the submarine drop if 2.35 kg of LiOH were completely consumed by reaction with CO2?

Using the particle in the 1-D box model, estimate the first 4 energy levels of the π-network in hexatriene, C6H8 (H2C=CH–CH=CH–CH=CH2). To calculate the box length, assume that the molecule is linear and use the values 135 and 154 pm for the C=C and C–C bonds, respectively. Only 2 out of the 6 ‘π-electrons’ of the 6 C-atoms can occupy each energy level (Pauli exclusion principle). Ignore the rest of the electrons (forming the core and the ??-bonding network). Sketch and label an energy level diagram showing the occupied levels and the first unoccupied one. What is the wavelength of the photon required to induce the HOMO-LUMO transition? Derive the expression for the photon’s wavelength symbolically! How does your numeric result compare with the experimental value of 240 nm?

Coke can be converted into CO in following reaction CO2(g) + C(s) -> 2CO(g). A coke that contains 84% carbon by mass and the balance noncombustible ash is fed to a reactor with a stoichiometric amount of CO2. The coke is fed at 77 oF, and the CO2 enters at 400 oF. Heat is transferred to the reactor in the amount of 5200 btu/lbm coke fed. The gaseous products and the solid reactor effluent (the ash and unburned carbon) leave the reactor at 1830 oF. The heat capacity of the solid is 0.24 btu/(lbm.oF) Calculate the percentage conversion of the carbon in the coke. (Provide your answer in decimal format, NOT percentage format!)

Calcium Oxide (CaO) is widely used in the production of cement, steel, medicines and many other familiar materials. It is usually produced by heating and decomposing limestone (CaCO3), a cheap and abundant material, in a calcination process:
CaCO3(s) -> CaO(s) + CO2(g)
CaCO3 at 298 K is fed to a continuous reactor. The calcination is complete, and the products leave at 1000 K. Taking 800 gmol of limestone as a basis and elemental species [Ca(s), C(s), O2(g)] at 298 K as reference for enthalpy calculations.
Ccalculate the required heat transfer to the reactor in MJ.

Malonic acid (H2M) is a diprotic acid. You wish to prepare a buffer of malonic acid (pKa1 = 2.847, pKa2= 5.696) with a final pH of 2.90 but you only have disodium malonate (M2-) in your laboratory shelf. You dissolve 100 mmol of this salt in 1 L of water. Assume both dissociation processes are decoupled.

How many equivalents of strong acid must you add to your solution to end with only HM- ?
What is the approximate pH of this solution of HM- ? Use an adequate mathematical approximation.

Oliver likes to go fishing in the river by his house. One day he noticed that there was a white substance on some rocks at the bottom of the river. When he looked closely, it appeared as though someone had sprinkled a powder or crystals in the water. Moreover, the substance was found mainly where a small creek joined the larger river.
Curious, Oliver followed the creek through the forest toward an industrial area. Eventually, he reached a fence and found the source of the creek water — a large drainage pipe. Oliver noticed that there was steam coming off the water as it flowed out of the metal pipe.
The temperature reading (in oC) of the water that flowed out of the drainage pipe: 88.35
The temperature reading (in oC) of the water in the river: 7.14
Analysis at four differnt points along the creek and river revealed that the chemical potassium nitrate was found in the water.
Note that 1 ml of water has a mass of 1 g.
In addition to potassium nitrate, analysis revealed there was four other chemicals found in the water at Point A.
