from one of our neigboring countries are heavily contaminated with pesticides. Upon analysis, some samples do not show any signal for pesticides. You use a Solid-Phase Microextraction (SPME) for the extraction procedure. Explain how SPME works and what are the advantages of using this over liquid-liquid extraction method.

Spike recovery and detection limit. Species of arsenic found in drinking water include AsO32 3 (arsenite), AsO32 4 (arsenate), (CH3)2AsO2 2 (dimethylarsinate), and (CH3)AsO22 3 (methylarsonate). Pure water containing no arsenic was spiked with 0.40 mg arsenate/L. Seven replicate determinations gave 0.39, 0.40, 0.38, 0.41, 0.36, 0.35, and 0.39 mg/L.15 Find the mean percent recovery of the spike and the concentration detection limit (mg/L).

500 ml of wastewater sample was collected and 200 ml of this sample was analyzed by classical 5 day BOD test (at 20\deg C) with 1/15 dilution. The initial DO measurement result was 9 mg/L and 35% reduction in DO was observed at the end of the experiment. The BOD reaction rate constant was 0.24 d¹ (base e) and there was no change in the DO concentration of the blank. If this wastewater contains 2.35 mg/L ammonia, 0.073 mM nitrate, 0.66 mg/L. nitrite and 7.81 mg/L TKN, answer the following questions:a) What are the organic nitrogen and total nitrogen concentrations in this sample?b) Calculate the BOD, at 10\deg C.

A piece of Gold weighing 12,359 Kg is suspected of being contaminated with Iron. To perform an instrumental analysis and To confirm whether or not it contains Fe, a portion of the sample (0.954 g) is taken from the piece and dissolved with 25 mL of aqua regia. Heats up For its complete dissolution, it is cooled and made up to 100 mL. A 10 mL aliquot is taken from this solution and made up to 50 mL. From This last solution is given the appropriate treatment to visualize Fe+2, for which the 1,10-phenanthroline reagent is added. (it forms a complex that is red in color) and is taken to a visible spectrophotometer and with a 12 mm cell a absorbance of 0.45. Previously, a calibration curve of Fe+2 was obtained under the same instrumental conditions obtaining the following data: (view table) Calculate the purity of the gold piece, assuming impurities only due to Fe.
