    9 (4 points). A narrow Gaussian distribution indicates experimental data with (a) more or (b) less
    precision than a comparatively wider Gaussian distribution? (circle a or b)

    Worked out Problems


    It is your responsibility to work out your answers clearly. Unclear, or unreadable work will not be
    graded. If there is not enough space provided to show your work, continue on the back of the page and
    clearly mark the problem number. Be sure to show all of your work and report your final answer with
    the correct number of significant figures and units. Unless otherwise noted, an unreasonable number
    of significant figures in a final answer will be marked off 2 points. A correct answer without work
    shown will not receive credit. Circle or draw a box around your final answer.

    10 (12 points). Given the following information:


    C 6 H 4 (O)CO22(aq)  C 6 H 4 (OH)CO2(aq)  OH-(aq) ; pK b1  11.03
     H 2 O (l) 
    K b1

    C 6 H 4 (OH)CO2(aq)  H 2 O (l) 
     C 6 H 4 (OH)CO2 H (aq)  OH-(aq) ; pK b2  1.3
    K b2

    Give the correct balanced chemical reaction and equilibrium expression for when the acid
    C6H4(OH)CO2H is added to pure water. Only consider the dissociation of the first proton.

    11 (12 points). Determine the solubility (reported in moles/L) of Ag4Fe(CN)6(s) in pure water if Ksp
    = 8.5x10-45 and:

     4
    Ag 4 Fe(CN)6(s) 
     4Ag (aq)  Fe(CN)6(aq)
    3
    12 (12 points). Calculate the following and report the answer with the absolute uncertainty (use the
    correct number of significant figures for full credit). Uncertainties given below are
    absolute.
    2
     [4.97(0.05)  1.86(0.03)]  6.01(0.04) 
     
     21.2(0.2) 

    13 (12 points). What is [SCN-(aq)] if we saturate a solution of 3.56x10-3M Hg2+ with Hg(SCN)2(s)?
    Ksp = 2.8x10-20
    4
    14 (16 points). In a Kjeldahl titration, organic nitrogen is digested in sulfuric acid to convert all
    organic N into NH4+. The NH4+ is then converted into ammonia gas (NH3(g)) and the
    ammonia gas is bubbled into a known volume of HCl with a known molarity.

    NH 3(g)  H (aq)  NH 4(aq)

    Any left over H+(aq) is then back titrated to the equivalence point by a known
    concentration of OH-(aq).

    OH-(aq)  H (aq)  H 2 O(l)
    The Kjeldahl procedure was used to analyze a sample containing 9.70 mg of protein.
    The liberated NH3 was collected in 5.00mL of 0.0336M HCl. The remaining acid
    required 6.34mL of 0.010 M NaOH for complete titration. What is the weight percent
    of nitrogen in the protein? (the molecular weight of nitrogen is 14.01 g/mole)
