4. A student has been tasked to determine the percent water in thalium (III) nitrate, TI(NO3)3×H2O. How would the calculated amount of water affected by each of the errors listed below? Would the determination of the amount of water be incorrectly high or low? You must explain your reasoning in order to receive credit. a) Following heating, the sample was allowed to stand in the open air overnight allowing it to absorb moisture before measuring its mass. b) The sample was heated too strongly resulting in the formation of NO2 (g).

Neutralization reactions involve the hydrogen ions (H+) from an acid, reacting with a base that often contains hydroxide ions (OH). Use this information to predict the name and formula for the chemical substance that is always produced in this type of reaction.
Crime scene investigators keep a wide variety of compounds on hand to help with identifying unknown substances they find in the course of their duties. One such investigator, while reorganizing their shelves, has mixed up several small vials and is unsure about the identity of a certain powder. Elemental analysis of the compound reveals that it is 67.31 % carbon, 6.978% hydrogen, 4.617% nitrogen, and 21.10% oxygen by mass. Which of the compounds could the powder be? C17H19NO3C17H19NO3 = morphine, analgesic C17H21NO4C17H21NO4 = cocaine, illicit drug C7H5N3O6C7H5N3O6 = 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), commonly used explosive C10H15NC10H15N = methamphetamine, stimulant C4H5N2OC4H5N2O = caffeine, stimulant C11H15NO2C11H15NO2 = 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), illicit drug C21H23NO5C21H23NO5 = heroin, illicit drug C3H6NO3C3H6NO3 = hexamethylene triperoxide diamine (HMTD), commonly used explosive
You are given pure serine in powder form, and you are asked to make exactly 20 mL of a 20 μM solution. How much serine powder (in μg) would you need to make such a solution? For this problem, assume that carbon has molar mass of 12 amu, hydrogen 1 amu, nitrogen 14 amu, oxygen 16 amu, and sulfur 32 amu. You must compute the molecular weight of serine after drawing it; do not look up the molecular weight on google. Show your unit conversion fully step by step
