The following reaction represents the process known as photosynthesis: 6CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(l) + sunlight → C₆H₁₂O₆(aq) + 6O₂(g). Is photosynthesis a redox reaction? Justify your answer using redox principles.
To measure the amount of chlorine in a well-boring fluid, an analytical chemist adds 0.3600M silver nitrate AgNO3 solution to a 24.00g sample of the fluid and collects the solid silver chloride AgCl product. When no more AgCl is produced, he filters, washes and weighs it, and finds that 1.28g has been produced. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: Cl−(aq) + AgNO3(aq) -> AgCl(s) + NO−3(aq) What kind of reaction is this? If you said this was a precipitation reaction, enter the chemical formula of the precipitate. If you said this was an acid-base reaction, enter the chemical formula of the reactant that is acting as the base.

Imagine you were working as a laboratory technician and your principal investigator asked you to develop Benedict’s test into a quantitative measure of the concentration of reducing sugar in a solution. To do this, you would first need to decide what to measure and then establish the relationship between your measurements and different concentrations of reducing sugars. Explain generally what you would decide to measure and how you would go about determining the relationship of your measurements to the concentration of reducing sugar.
One way in which the useful metal copper is produced is by dissolving the mineral azurite, which contains copper(II) carbonate, in concentrated sulfuric acid. The sulfuric acid reacts with the copper(II) carbonate to produce a blue solution of copper(II) sulfate. Scrap iron is then added to this solution, and pure copper metal precipitates out because of the following chemical reaction: Fe (s) + CuSO4 (aq) → Cu (s) + FeSO4 (aq)Suppose an industrial quality-control chemist analyzes a sample from a copper processing plant in the following way. He adds powdered iron to a 200.mL copper(II) sulfate sample from the plant until no more copper will precipitate. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate, and finds that it has a mass of 73.mg . Calculate the original concentration of copper(II) sulfate in the sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
It was invented in 1859 by French physician Gaston Plante and still retains application today, more than 150 years later. There are two reactions that take place during discharge of the lead-acid storage battery. In one step, sulfuric acid decomposes to form sulfur trioxide and water: H₂SO4(1) SO3(9) + H₂O(1) ΔΗ=+113. In another step, lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfur trioxide react to form lead(II) sulfate: Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2 SO3(g) â†’ 2 PbSO4(s) Î”H = -775 kJ Calculate the net change in enthalpy for the formation of one mole of lead(II) sulfate from lead, lead(IV) oxide, and sulfuric acid from these reactions. Round your answer to the nearest kJ.
The quantity of antimony in a sample can be determined by an oxidation–reduction titration with an oxidizing agent. A 6.19 g6.19 g sample of stibnite, an ore of antimony, is dissolved in hot, concentrated HCl(aq) and passed over a reducing agent so that all the antimony is in the form Sb3+⁢(aq). The Sb3+⁢(aq) is completely oxidized by 30.5 mL of a 0.115 M aqueous solution of KBrO3⁢(aq). The unbalanced equation for the reaction is BrO^− 3(aq) + Sb^3+(aq)⟶Br^−(aq)+Sb^5+(aq)(unbalanced) Calculate the amount of antimony in the sample and its percentage in the ore. mass of antimony in grams: percentage of antimony:
The amount of I (aq) in a solution can be determined by titration with a solution containing a known concentration of S₂O3(aq) (thiosulfate ion). The determination is based on the net ionic equation 2S₂O3(aq) + 13(aq) · → S₂O²(aq) + 31¯ (aq) Given that it requires 27.4 mL of 0.260 M Na₂S₂O3(aq) to titrate a 10.0 mL sample of 13 (aq), calculate the molarity of I3 (aq) in the solution.
