Chapter 2, Problem 2.159CP

What was the mass in atomic mass units of a 40Ca atom prior to 1961 if its mass on today’s scale is 39.9626? (See Problem 2.158)

2.158 Prior to 1961, the atomic mass unit was defined as 1/16 the mass of the atomic weight of oxygen; that is, the atomic weight of oxygen was defined as exactly 16. What was the mass of a 12C atom prior to 1961 if the atomic weight of oxygen on today’s scale is 15.9994?

Calculating the pH of a weak base titrated with a strong acid An analytical chemist is titrating 101.7 mL of a 0.3500M solution of piperidine (C5H10NH) with a 0.05700M solution of HClO4. The pK of piperidine is 2.89. Calculate the pH of the base solution after the chemist has added 682.9 mL of the HClO solution to it. 4 Note for advanced students: you may assume the final volume equals the initial volume of the solution plus the volume of HClO solution added. 4 Round your answer to 2 decimal places. pH = .11 00. 18 Ar
