Question

Ca2+ in a drinking water sample was analyzed by the following reactions below:

Ca2+(aq) + C2O42-(aq) → CaC2O4 (s) → CaO(s) + CO(g)+ CO2(g)

  1. First an excess of C2O42- was added to 0.10 L of the Ca2+ water sample.
  2. Then CaC2O4 was precipitated, which was demcomposed into CaO with filtering and some heat.
  3. The CaO was measured to be 5.61 mg.

What is the concentration of Ca2+ in the original water sample? The MW of CaO is 56.1 g/mol.

The partition coefficient (K) of methylamine (CH3NH2) is 4.50, preferring the organic layer over the aqueous layer in this extraction. The Ka of methylammonium (CH3NH3+) is 2.00 x 10-11. If 10 mL aqueous methylamine solution at pH 11.0 is extracted with 20.0 mL organic solvent, what is the fraction of solute remaining in the water (q)?

 

HINT: methylamine is a weak base.
