Chapter 3, Problem 93SCQ

The presence of arsenic in a sample that may also contain another Group 5A element, antimony, can be confirmed by first precipitating the As3+ and Sb3+ ions as yellow solid As2S3 and orange solid Sb2S3. If aqueous HCI is then added, only Sb2S3 dissolves, leaving behind solid As2S3. The As2S3 can then be dissolved using aqueous HNO3.

3 As2S3(s) + 10 HNO3(aq) + 4 H2O() → 6 H3AsO4(aq) + 10 NO(g) + 9 S(s)

Finally, the presence of arsenic is confirmed by adding AgNO3 to the solution of H3AsO4 to precipitate a reddish brown solid AgxAsOy The composition of this solid is As, 16.199% and Ag, 69.964%.

(a) What are the oxidation numbers of As, S, and N in the reaction of As2S3 with nitric acid?

(b) What is the formula of the reddish brown solid AgxAsOy?

The purity of a pharmaceutical preparation of sulfanildamide (C6H4N2O2S), is prolonged oxidizing the sulfur in the sample to SO2 and bubbling this SO2 through a solution of H2O2 which converts it to H2SO4. The acid is titrated with a standard solution of NaOH (0.1251 M) until the end point with bromothymol blue, which changes color when both protons of the acid sulfuric have been neutralized. Calculate the purity of the preparation in % by weight given that a sample of 0.5136 g required 50.00 mL of the NaOH solution
G.298.
Group III (Al3+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Zn2+) cations produce very soluble sulphides so they can be precipitated by relatively high amounts of sulfide ion; this can be achieved by adding a basic solution of H2S.
