You have just been employed as a new analyst for a pharmaceutical company and are required to develop a method for the analysis of a new formulation of paracetamol. Your brief requires you to ensure that the method is fit for purpose and is validated to ICH guidelines. The new formulation has 500 mg of paracetamol per tablet, and each tablet has an average mass of 750 mg. (a) What instrument would you use for this analysis? Justify your answer. (b) What detector would you use? Justify your answer.

The total cation content of natural water is often determined by exchanging the cations for hydrogen ions on a strong acid ion-exchange resin. A 25.00 mL sample of a natural water was diluted to 100.00 ML with distilled water, and 2.06 g of a cation - exchange resin was added. After stirring, the mixture was filtered and the solid remaining on the filter paper was washed with three 15.00 mL portions of water. The filtrate and washings required 16.30 mL of 0.0282 M NaOH to give a bromocresol green end point. a) Calculate the number of millimoles of cation present in exactly 1.00 L of sample. b ) Report the results in terms of milligrams of CaCO3 per liter. Only typed solution.

Sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3, also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. Acid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid HCl, which the stomach secretes to help digest food. Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO3 neutralizes excess HCl through this reaction: HCl(aq)+NaHCO3(aq)→NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g) The CO2 gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution. Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a woman suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 200.mL of a 0.089M HCl solution. What mass of NaHCO3 would she need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
A sample contained a mixture of NaHCO3, NACO, and inert material. If A represents the millilitres (mL) of standard acid to reach the phenolphthalein end point and B the volume of acid needed to go from this point to the methyl orange end point, which of the following relationships will be obserrved? O A B>A, A>0 O B. A>B; B>0 OC A=0, B>A O D. None of the given answers OE. A-B, B>0
On their third titration trial, the CHM 111 student used 18.80 mL of 0.205 M NaOH(aq) to neutralize 25.0 mL of HCl(aq). Calculate the molar concentration of the HCl solution to the correct number of significant figures.
20.00mL of 6M HCl is taken from 500mL bottle containing the acid and is transferred to 250mL volumetric flask and diluted to volume with water. What is the molarity of the new solution? Do not enter units with your answer.
You were assigned to assay a product sample of milk of magnesia. A 0.600-g sample was reacted with 25.00 mL 0.10590 N H2SO4 . The excess unreacted acid in the solution required 13.00 mL of 0.09500 N NaOH when titrated to reach the methyl red end point. Determine the dosage strength of the product in terms of % Mg(OH)2 content. Type your answer in 2 decimal places, numbers only.
