Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 15QAP
Although reviewing your lecture notes and reading your text book are important, why does the study of chemistry depend so much on problem solving? Can you learn to solve problems yourself just by looking at the solved examples in your textbook or study guide? Discuss.

To spectrophotometrically determine the mass percent of cobalt in an ore containing cobalt and
some inert materials, solutions with known [Co?) are prepared and absorbance of each of the
solutions is measured at the wavelength of optimum absorbance. The data are used to create a
calibration plot, shown below.

A 0.630 g sample of the ore is completely dissolved in concentrated HNO3(aq). The mixture is diluted
with water to a final volume of 50.00 ml. Assume that all the cobalt in the ore sample is converted to
Co2+(aq).

- You wish to add enough NaOCl (sodium hypochlorite) to a 150 m³ swimming pool to provide a dose of 5.0 mg/L TOTOCI as Cl2. (a) How much NaOCI (kg) should you add? (Note: the equivalent weight of NaOCl is based on the reaction: NaOCl + 2H + 2 e→CI + Na +H₂O.) (10 pts) (atomic weight: Na 23, O 16, C1 35.5) (b) The pH in the pool after the NaOCl addition is 8.67. To improve disinfection, you want at least 90% of the TOTOCI to be in the form of HOCI (pKa 7.53). Assuming that HOCI/OCI is the only weak acid/base group in solution, what volume (L) of 10 N HCl must be added to achieve the goal?
