Although we usually think of substances as "burning" only in oxygen gas, the process of rapid oxidation to produce a flame may also take place in other strongly oxidizing gases. For example, when iron is heated and placed in pure chlorine gas, the iron "burns" according to the following (unbalanced) reaction: Fe(s) + Cl₂ (g) → FeCls (8) How many milligrams of iron(III) chloride result when 14.50 mg of iron is reacted with an excess of chlorine gas? mg FeCl₂

Many mining operations produce tailings that can be oxidized to form acids, including sulfuric acid. One chemical that reacts in this way is chalcopyrite, CuFeS2, whose net oxidation can be described by the following equation. 4 CUFES2(s) + 17 О2(9) + 10 Н:0() — 4 Fe (ОН), (s) + 4 CUSO4 (ад) + 4 H;SO4(aд) In a laboratory experiment to study weathering, a mining engineer put a 1.63 kg sample of CuFeS2 (s) near an empty 40 L container. Simulated weathering experiments were conducted and the runoff was collected, leading to 35.5 L of solution. A 25.00 mL aliquot of this solution was analyzed with 0.0100 M NaOH(ag). The titration required 31.3 mL of base. (а) What was the concentration (in M) of sulfuric acid? M (b) Assuming the only acid in the container comes from the reacted chalcopyrite, what mass (in g) of the chalcopyrite has reacted? (c) What percentage of the chalcopyrite reacted in this experiment? %
One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 250. mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with copper(II) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: CuCl,(aq) + 2 AgNO3(aq) → 2 AgCl(s) + Cu(NO,),(aq) The chemist adds 68.0 mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. He finds he has collected 4.3 mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of copper(II) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. mg x10
A chemist invents a new combustion analysis instrument that uses less O2(g) which saves money on each analysis. The improvement is that instead of CO2(g) being formed and trapped, CO(g) is formed and trapped. H2O (g) is also formed and trapped when substances that contain hydrogen are analyzed.(a) The chemist places 2.184 g of an unknown compound of carbon and hydrogen in the new analyzer. 4.627 g of CO (g) and 1.795 g of H2O (g) are produced. Find the empirical formula for the compound.(Molar masses (g/mol): CO = 28.0104, H2O = 18.015) (b) Despite the best efforts of the chemist, the molar mass of the compound cannot be determined (using this method). Clearly explain why this prevents the determination of the molecular formula
In a car airbag, sodium azide (NaN3) decomposes to form sodium metal and nitrogen gas (reaction1). The sodium metal then reacts with potassium nitrate to produce more nitrogen gas (reaction 2) according to the following equation: Na(s) + KNO3(s) → N2(g) + Na2O(s) + K2O(s) a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction (1) that happened in the airbag. b) Balance the equation of reaction 2 c) In a table classify and compounds in ion 1 and reaction 2 into ionic or covalent. If 2.00 mol of sodium azide react in this way, what is the total number of molecules of N2 will be formed?

One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 200.mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with iron(III) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: FeCl3 (aq) + 3AgNO3 (aq) →3AgCl (s) + (FeNO3)3 (aq) The chemist adds 48.0mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. She then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. She finds she has collected 7.5mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of iron(III) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
A website promoting the use of alternative energy vehicles and hybrid technologies claims that "A typical automobile in the USA uses about 500 gal of gasoline every year, producing about 5 tons of carbon dioxide." To determine the truth of this statement, calculate how many tons of carbon dioxide are produced when 500.0 gal of gasoline are combusted. Assume that the primary ingredient in gasoline is octane, C H₁ (1), which has a density of 0.703 g · mL-¹. 18 CO₂ produced: tons
