Chapter 2, Problem 97QRT

Chalky, white crystals in mineral collections are often labeled borax, which has the molecular formula Na2B4O7 · 10H2O, when actually they are partially dehydrated samples with the molecular formula Na2B4O7 · 5H2O, which is more stable under the storage conditions. Real crystals of borax are colorless and transparent.

  1. (a) Calculate the percent mass that the mineral has lost when it partially dehydrates.
  2. (b) Is the percent boron by mass the same in both compounds?

Using the graphs could you help me explain the answers. I assumed that both graphs are proportional to the inverse of time, I think. Could you please help me.

Shown below is the mechanism presented for the formation of biasplatin in reference 1 from the Background and Experiment document. The amounts used of each reactant are shown.  Either draw or describe a better alternative to this mechanism. (Note that the first step represents two steps combined and the proton loss is not even shown; fixing these is not the desired improvement.)  (Hints: The first step is correct, the second step is not; and the amount of the anhydride is in large excess to serve a purpose.)
