The inversion of compound B is experimentally determined to
follow the rate law: d[B]/dt =
-k[B]a[H+]b.
At 25 °C and a constant pH of 3.00, the reaction proceeds with a
constant half-life of 40.0 min. At this same temperature, but at a
constant pH of 1.00, the half-life is constant at 4.00 min. What
are the exponents (orders) a and b in the above rate law?

Like nickel, iron can also be purified using a carbonyl compound. Iron purified this way is called carbonyl iron, and the iron has an oxidation state of zero. Briefly rationalize why iron(III) does not form a complex with carbonyls whereas iron(0) does. Based on the EAN rule, speculate on the most likely homoleptic carbonyl complex formed by iron(0).

A sediment sample taken from a lignite strip-mine pit contains highly alkaline (pH 10) water. Cations were displaced from the sediment by treatment with HCl. A total analysis of cations in the leachate yielded, on the basis of millimoles per 100 g of dry sediment: 160 mmol Na+, 10 mmol K+, 30 mmol Mg2+, and 70 mmol Ca2+. What is the cation exchange capacity of the sediment in milliequivalents per 100 g of dry sediment? Why does H+ not have to be considered in this case?

A titrimetric method for the determination of calcium in
limestone was tested by analysis of a NIST
containing 30.15% CaO. The mean result of four analyses was 30.26%
CaO, with standard deviation of 0.085%.
By pooling data from several analyses, it was found that s =
0.094% CaO.
a) Do the data indicate the presence of a systematic error at the
95% confidence level?
b) Would the data indicate the presence of a systematic error at
95% confidence level if no pooled value for s
had been available?
Show calculations for part a and b.
