An aluminium oxalate complex was prepared by dissolving aluminium metal in potassium hydroxide, followed by reaction with oxalic acid. The resulting complex was analysed for oxalate content by titration against potassium permanganate:

A 0.1105 g sample of the aluminium oxalate complex was dissolved in deionized water (30 cm3) and bench dilute (2 M) sulphuric acid (10 cm3) added. The resulting solution was heated to about 60 ºC and titrated against standardized potassium manganate (VII) solution. 14.35 cm3 of a 0.02 mol dm-3 KMn04 solution was required.

                        (i)        Write out a balanced equation for the overall redox process.

                                                                       

                        (ii)       Use the analytical data to deduce if the prepared complex was K3Al(C2O4)3.3H2O or KAl(C2O4)2(H2O)2.2H2O

1. A 15.00 gram sample of ammonium chloride was dissolved in 100.00 grams of water. How much heat is produced by the dissolution (absorbed from the solution) if the solution temperature goes from 22.0 *C to 1.0 *C. The specific heat of the solution is 4.18 J/g*C

2. 300.0 mL of a 2.500 M Solution X was mixed with 300.0 mL of a 2.500 M Solution Y in a calorimeter. Both of the solutions were at the same temperature initially. Determine the heat of neutralization (kj/mole) if the temperature goes from 12.0 *C to 29.0 *C. Assume a molar ratio of 1:1. The specific heat of the solution is 4.281 J/ g*C. The density of the mixture is 1.050 g/mL.

The mass of Uranus is 8.68 x 1025 kg. That’s 14.536 times more than the mass of Earth.

What is the difference between the forces due to Uranus on a 1.0 kg mass located at the near side of Titania and at the far side of Titania? Titania has a mean radius of 789 km and a mean orbital radius about Uranus of 436,300 km. (Enter the magnitude in newtons.)

Compare this difference to the difference for Earth due to the Moon, 0.22 ✕ 10−5 N. (Tidal forces are the cause of volcanic activity on some moons.)

Calculate the mass (in kg) of the Sun based on data for Uranus's orbit. (Use G = 6.67 ✕ 10−11 N · m2/kg2 in your calculations. Round your answer to at least four significant figures.)

Compare the above calculated value with the Sun's actual mass. (Round your answer to at least three decimal places.)
