A student is given 1.525 g of pure CuO. To recover the Cu present in the compound, the dark powdery solid was dissolved in 15.0 mL of 6M HCl, the solution diluted with 50.0 mL of water, and 0.40 g of Mg was added. Was this enough Mg to displace all the Cu2+ ions from the solution?								This is not enough Mg to diplace all the Cu2+ ions from the solution. Edit Answer

a. If there is not enough Mg present, how much more Mg metal would be needed (minimum)?								You would need 0.032 mol( 0.078g) more of Mg to diplace all the Cu2+ ions. Edit Answer

b. If there was enough Mg to displace the Cu, how much 6 M HCl (in mL) would be required to decompose the excess Mg present?

A student was given an old tablet of vitamin C weighed 1.022 g to analyze. The tablet was dissolved in 700.0 mL water, and 35.0 mL aliquot of this solution required 45.6 mL of unknown molarity I2 (stock A) solution to oxidize it. In another experiment, the student titrated 50. mL of that same I2 (stock A) with 17.6 mL of 0.0100 M ascorbic acid. Calculate the mg vitamin C in the tablet.
