You and a friend are out collecting samples in a swine lagoon and run a chemical analysis and sequence the sample. Your results come back with a chemolithoautotrophy that oxidizes sulfide - completely to sulfate - coupled to the reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas. The concentrations of the chemicals from the chemical analysis is 300μM

After seeing Blake Lively's Met Gala 2022 look, a chemist was inspired to determine the copper concentration in their rock sample. Knowing that copper undergoes redox reactions, they chose to use an iodometric titration for this analysis. An unknown sample weighing 1.5098 g was acidified with 3.0 M H₂SO4 to dissolve the copper compounds and diluted with 30 mL distilled water. This was followed by the addition of excess KI producing I2 and Cul precipitate from Cu²+ (Reaction 1). Then, the liberated I2 reacted with the excess KI forming triiodide anion (Reaction 2), which was then titrated with Na2S2O3 titrant (Reaction 3). This entire solution required 17.60 mL of the titrant to reach the starch end point. MW: Cu (63.546 g/mol) a. Write the balanced chemical equation for Reactions 1-3 b. What is the mole ratio between Cu²+ and S203²-? Prior to the titration of the sample, the titrant was standardized by taking 50.0 mL of 6.7863 x 10-³ M standard KIO3 solution, acidifying, and adding KI…
4. A 0.200-g sample of pyrolusite is analyzed for manganese content as follows: 50.0 ml of 0.100 M solution of ferrous ammonium sulfate was added to reduce the MnO₂ to Mn²+. After reduction is complete, the excess ferrous iron is titrated in the acid solution with 0.0200 M KMnO4, requiring 15.0 ml. Calculate the %Mn3O4 (MW = 228.812) of the sample. The reaction between Fe²+ and MnO₂ is: MnO₂ + 2Fe²+ + 4H+ → Mn²+ + 2Fe³+ + 2H₂O The reaction between Fe²+ and MnO4 is: 5Fe²+ + Mn0 +8H+ → 5Fe³+ + Mn²+ + 4H₂O
