Chapter 23, Problem 3QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The chemical formulas for the given minerals are to be written.
Concept introduction:
The naturally occurring chemical substances, in the form of which metals occur in earth, along with impurities, are called minerals.
A mineral from which a metal is economically and conveniently extracted is called an ore. An ore contains many impurities that are removed by purification.
Minerals are the halides, oxides, carbonates, silicates, sulfides, and sulfates of metals.

Write the chemical reactions involved in the extraction of silver from silver ore.
In determining the manganese dioxide content of a pyrolusite mineral. A sample of 0.5261 g of pyrolusite was treated with 0.7149 g of 97.98% sodium oxalate in an acid medium. After the reaction was complete, 30.47 mL of a 0.02160 M potassium permanganate solution was required to titrate for excess unreacted oxalic acid. Calculate the percentage of manganese dioxide in the pyrolusite.
Metallic titanium and its alloys (especially those with aluminum and vanadium) combine the advantages of high strength and lightweight and are therefore used widely in the aerospace industry for the bodies and engines of airplanes (Figure 2.4). The major natural source for titanium is the ore rutile, which contains titanium dioxide (TiO2).(a) An intermediate in the preparation of elemental titanium from TiO2 is avolatile chloride of titanium (boiling point 136°C) that contains 25.24%titanium by mass. Determine the empirical formula of this compound.(b) At 136°C and atmospheric pressure, the density of this gaseous chloride is 5.6 g L-1 . Under the same conditions, the density of gaseous nitrogen (N2, molar mass 28.0 g mol-1 ) is 0.83 g L-1 . Determine the molecular formula of this compound.(c) The titanium chloride dealt with in parts (a) and (b) is produced by thereaction of chlorine with a hot mixture of titanium dioxide and coke (carbon), with carbon dioxide generated as a…
