The active ingredient in Antabuse, a drug used for the treatment of chronic alcoholism, is tetraethylthiuram disulfide, (C,H5),NCSSCN(C,H5)2 (296.54 g/mol). The sulfur in a 0.4329-g sample of an Antabuse preparation was oxidized to SO,, which was absorbed in H,O, to give H,SO4. The acid was titrated with 22.13 mL of 0.03736 M base. Calculate the percentage of ac- tive ingredient in the preparation.

Concentration of Solutions Children's toys and jewelry were assessed for their contarnination by potentially toxic elements (PTE). This includes traces of As (74.92 g/mol), Cd (112.4 g/mol), Pb (207.2 g/mol), and Zn (65.39 g/mol) among others. The concentrations of these PTES were determined to characterize the subsequent health risks, and to possibly reinforce better legislation on the manufacturing of these products. A. If 365 ppb of Cd was observed, whatis its equivalent in %(w/w!? B. A sample of plastic toy was treated resulting to a 1000 mL solution. What is the concentration of As in ppm if 65 ug of As is found in the sample? C. A 250 mL stock solution of 1.5 M Pb standard was prepared.

ABS plastic is a polymer consisting of three monomer units: acrylonitrile (C₃H₃N), butadiene (C₄H₆), and styrene (C₈H₈). A sample of ABS plastic contains 11.9% N by mass. It took 1.56 g of Br₂ to react completely with a 2.00 g sample of ABS plastic. Bromine reacts 1:1 (by moles) with the butadiene units in the polymer and nothing else, so bromination is a method for determining the quantity of butadiene in the polymer. What is the percent by mass of styrene in the polymer?
