In Chapter 6I of Analytical Chemistry 2.1, the author shows two beakers in Figure 6.15 on pg. 242: One is filled with a relatively dark orange iron (III) thiocyanate complex, and one with added supporting electrolyte, resulting in a lighter colored iron (III) thiocyanate complex. The determination of the equilibrium constant for the formation of the iron (III) thiocyanate complex, often performed in general chemistry lab, is shown in the following reaction:

Fe3+(aq) + SCN(aq) ↔ FeSCN2+(aq)

The concentration-based formation constant for this reaction (μ = 1.0 M) has been reported to be 113. Determine the thermodynamic formation constant for the iron (III) thiocyanate complex and support your answer by relating it to the experimental observation in Figure 6.15 on page 242. Assume that the hydrated ion diameter for FeSCN2+ is 0.20 nm.

A ball of clay with a mass of 4.0 kg, starting from rest, falls from a height of 0.20 m above a block with mass 1.0 kg that rests on top of a spring with spring constant 90 N/m. The block then sticks to the block and the system undergoes simple harmonic motion. Please submit your answers to the following questions on a separate sheet of paper (or multiple sheets of paper).

i. Write the formulas for the position, velocity, and acceleration as functions of time, with t = 0 corresponding to the moment that the ball hits the spring. Sketch graphs for each quantity over the first three cycles of the oscillations. Pay careful attention to where in the cycle the system’s oscillation starts.

ii. Write formulas for the kinetic energy and the total mechanical energy of the system as functions of time. Sketch graphs for each quantity over the first three cycles of the oscillations.
