You determine the acetic acid (HOAc) content of vinegar by titrating with a sodium hydroxide standard solution to a phenolphthalein (an indicator) end point. An approximately 5-mL sample of vinegar is weighed on an analytical balance in a weighing boat and this is found to be 5.0268 g. The standard deviation in making a single weighing is 0.2 mg. The sodium hydroxide must be accurately standardised (this means its concentration must be accurately determined) by titrating known mass of high-purity potassium hydrogen phthalate, and three such titrations give molar concentrations of 0.1167, 0.1163 and 0.1164 mol L-1. A volume of 36.78 mL of sodium hydroxide is used to titrate each sample. The standard deviation of the burette used is 0.02 mL. Calculate the percentage of acetic acid in the vinegar and its standard deviation.

The thermal conductivities of human tissues vary greatly. Fat and skin have conductivities of about 0.20 W/m · K and 0.020 W/m · K respectively, while other tissues inside the body have conductivities of about 0.50 W/m · K. Assume that between the core region of the body and the skin surface lies a skin layer of 1.0 mm, fat layer of 0.50 cm, and 3.2 cm of other tissues. (a) Find the R-factor for each of these layers, and the equivalent R-factor for all layers taken together, retaining two digits. Rskin m2 · K/W Rfat m2 · K/W Rtissue m2 · K/W R m2 · K/W (b) Find the rate of energy loss when the core temperature is 37°C and the exterior temperature is 0°C. Assume that both a protective layer of clothing and an insulating layer of unmoving air are absent, and a body area of 2.0 m2. W
A commercial research organization is planning to develop a sensor to detect methyl parathion that may be injected into a water supply by terrorists. The LD50 for methyl parathion is reported to be as low as 6 mg ・ kg−1 for rats. They are assuming a safety factor of 1 × 105 and a volume of liquid ingested equal to a cup of coffee (about 250 mL) in the design of the instrument. What concentration (in mg ・ L−1) must their instrument be able to detect? Using Equation 6–10, the concentration you have calculated, the ingestion rate of 250 mL, an exposure frequency of one day, and exposure duration of one day, an adult malebody weight, and an averaging time of 1 day, estimate the hazard index. The RfD for methyl parathion is 2.5 × 10−4 mg ・ kg−1 ・ d−1 .
A large freshwater (total mass of water 10^5 kg) lake contains no lithium. A sudden spill releases a constant lithium contaminated flow discharging 3.98*10^8 mg of lithium/hr. How long will it take until the lake reaches a lithium concentration of 1.1nmol/kg?

A 15000 L tailings pond at a mine site was analyzed for cadmium contamination. First, a 25.0 mL sample of water was removed from the pond. Then the solution was evaporated to dryness, and 56.1 mg of cadmium was recovered (the identity of the metal was confirmed through other methods). Assuming the water is homogeneously distributed throughout the pond, what is the concentration of cadmium in the tailings pond?
A teacher developed a new chemical - NONDISTRACTUS, which allows students to focus in the classroom more and not be distracted by random events. For NONDISTRACTUS to be effective there must be a minimum concentration in the student's body of 2.00 x10-3 mol / L. If the concentration falls below this level, the students are faced with a 10 min nonproductive period where they cannot focus on anything. NONDISTRACTUS was found to undergo a very rapid first-order decay with a half-life (t½) in the bodies of students of 23 min. Based on this information:a) What is the rate law constant, k?b) If the student starts off with an initial concentration of 2.25 x 10-2 mol / L dose, how long will it be until the concentration is above the minimum 2.00 x 10-3 mol / L? Will it ensure that they are not distracted for the entire test?
Archimedes, a famous Greek scientist, was given a problem by King Hieron II of Syracuse (Sicily). The king suspected that his crown, which was supposed to be made of pure gold, contained some silver alloy, and he asked Archimedes to prove or disprove his suspicion. (It turned out that the crown did not contain silver.) How would you experimentally determined whether or not the crown was pure gold? (Hint: The method came to Archimedes when getting into a full bathtub. See the footnote in Experiment 22 for Archimedes’ solution.)

A geochemist measures the concentration of salt dissolved in Lake Parsons and finds a concentration of 69.32 g.L The geochemist also measures the concentration of salt in several nearby non-isolated lakes, and finds an average concentration of 5.02 g⋅L¯¹. Assuming the salt concentration in Lake Parsons before it became isolated was equal to the average salt concentration in nearby non-isolated lakes, calculate the percentage of Lake Parsons which has evaporated since it became isolated. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
