a 10g soil sample was gently stirred with 250 ml of 1.0 M CH3COO(NH4) solution for 24 h and centrifuged to separate the solution. The solution recovered after centrifugation was titrated with distilled water to a volume of 1 liter and analyzed for cations. Analytical results showed that the solution contained 20 mg/L Ca, 2 mg/L Mg, 1 mg/L K, and 0.5 mg/L Na. Calculate the number of cation exchange equivalents and express it in meq/100 g of soil

A phosphate buﬀer solution (25.00 mL sample) used for a growth medium was titrated with 0.1000 M hydrochloric acid. The components of the buﬀer were sodium monohydrogen phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate. The ﬁrst endpoint occurred at a volume of 10.32 mL, and the second occurred after an additional 18.62 mL was added, for a total volume of 28.94 mL. What was the total concentration of phosphate (in any form) in the buﬀer? **Please be as detailed as possible. The different volumes in this titration are a little difficult to understand** THANK you in advance.
20 ml of a 100 mg/l phenol solution in water is placed in a vial with 20 ml of a fluorocarbon solvent. The organic phase (fluorocarbon solvent) is immiscible with water. The vial is completely filled with the two phases, thus there is no air or contaminant volatilization. After an hour of agitation, the two phase system reaches equilibrium. The two phases are separated and the fluorocarbon is analyzed for total phenol. The resulting phenol concentration in the organic phase is 16.0 mg/l. Compute the unitless partition coefficient (KF-W) for phenol. Compare your calculation with KF-W obtained from an empirical relationship: log10KF-W 0.71 - 0.862log10 CWsat. KF-W means the partition between the fluorocarbon solvent, F, and water, W. Only typed solution.
Suggest a strategy using selective precipitation (which salts containing precipitating ion would you add and in what order) to purify wastewater contaminated with Ag+, Ba2+, Fe3+ and Na+. The purified water should only contain Na+ which is safe to drink.
A student measured 20 drops of vinegar and one drop of phenolphthalein solution into a well of her well plate. After she had added 35 drops of NaOH solution to the same well, the well was full, but she had still not reached the titration endpoint. She then took a clean pipet and transferred some of the titration mixture into a second well. She rinsed the pipet with a few drops of distilled water and transferred the rinse water into the titration mixture in the second well. Then she continued adding NaOH solution to both wells until she reached the endpoint in both wells. She then recorded the total number of drops of NaOH solution added to both wells and used it to calculate the data for her vinegar titration. Briefly comment on her procedure and the accuracy of her results.
