A solution containing 50 mL of 2 x 10 -3 M of an indicator H 2 In is measured to have an absorbance of 0.240 at 540 nm with a 1 cm thick cuvette. After 50 mL of 2.8 x 10 -3 M NaOH was added to the solution, the absorbance became 0.048.

Your book describes a treatment for -Thalassemia, a disease where the body cannot make the form of hemoglobin. Transfusions are necessary to provide the body with external sources ofhemoglobin but that procedure causes a potentially fatal buildup of Fe in the bofy. To eliminate Fe2+, desferrioxamine B (DB) is given to patients. DB is a chelating agent for Fe2+ that has three hydroxamate groups which complex with the Fe or H. The hydroxamate group in its uncomplexed basic form is

   O- O

    |   ||

R-N-C-R’

In this formula, R and R’ stand for other carbon-containing parts. When dB is administered to patients, it chelates with the Fe2+ in three spots forming a Fe2+-DB complex with a formation constant of 5 x 1030. The Fe2+-DB complex can then be excreted from the body.

a) Assume the body has a blood volume of 4.8 liters, the concentration of Fe2+ in the blood is 3.6 x 10-5 M, and the blood pH is 7.1. Assume that 200 mgm of DB is administered to a patient (DB has a molecular weight of 555) and the DB goes completely into the patient’s blood system. Determine the concentration of uncomplexed Fe that remains after the administration. The acid dissociation constants for DB are

K1 = 5 x 10-5

K2 = 6 x 10-6

K3 = 8 x 10-8

b) How many grams of Fe2+ will be removed from the patient’s body if all the Fe2+ - D is excreted? (atomic weight of Fe = 55)

c) If the number of grams determined in part b) are removed each day, how many days will it take to remove the 4 grams of iron that typically accumulate in a person’s body over 1 year?
