Smog is the pollution of the atmosphere over large cities with a mixture of nitrogen Oxide (NO, NO2) gases and Ozone (O3) gas. These gases are produced by burning gasoline in the internal combustion engines of our cars. Suggest a solution(s) to reduce the emission of these gases to the atmosphere.
Please make sure to type it.

Sally chemist is attempting to determine the mass % of acetic acid in vinegar. Below is an excerpt from her lab book:
A. Prepared vinegar analyte
25.0 mL vinegar
mass of vinegar 25.20 grams
added 75.0 mL H2O
added 2 drops phenolphthalein
temperature: 27.0 oC
manufacturer's mass % acetic acid = 3.5 %
B. Prepared burette
filled with standardized NaOH solution 0.201 M
C. Titration
initial burette reading: 5.12 mL
final burette reading: 78.67 mL
solution is light pink
1. What is the density of her vinegar samlpe?
2. Use the manufacturers reported mass % acetic acid to estimate how many moles of acetic acid are present in her analyte.
3. Use your result from 2 to estimate how many mL of standardized NaOH solution she will need to reach the equivalence point.
4. Use Sally's data to calculate the molarity of acetic acid in her vinegar sample.
5 Use the results from 4 to calculate the mass % of acetic acid in Sally's vinegar sample.

Calculate the adiabatic flame temperature for the following mixtures initially at 298 K: stoichiometric butane-air mixture, stoichiometric butane-oxygen mixture, 2.0% (by volume) of butane in air. Calculate without the restriction on the possible products using an online version of the CEA calculator developed by NASA and located athttp://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/CEAWeb/ceaHome.htm. Compare the results of the two calculations and explain possible differences.

In a procedure developed to determine the percent zinc in post 1982 pennies, 50 mL of an HCl solution was used to react (dissolve) all of the zinc in the penny. To ensure complete reaction, the solution contains twice as many moles of HCl that is usually needed. What concentration of HCl should be used? What is the amount in moles of excess (unreacted) HCl in solution? How many moles of NaOH would be needed to completely react with all of the excess HCl?
To determine the percent zinc in the penny, the excess was titrated with NaOH. determine the concentration of NaOH needed if you want to use approx 25 mL of NaOH to titrte the excess HCl.

calculate the % difference of the 0.5133g and 0.5275 g of struvite from the two water samples in question a. ----> two 10.0 Ml water samples were taking The procedure in this experiment is followed to determine the phosphate concentration. What would be the average phosphate concentration in the solution be( in units of molarity) if the student obtained 0.5133g and 0.5275g of struvite using gravimetric analysis? show all work assume this procedure precipitates out all of the phosphate from the sample in form of struvite
