Based on a concentration of 0.065gBr-/Lthe ocean is estimated to have localid="1663415120962" $ 391,000,000of localid="1663415161974" Br2/mi3at recent prices.

a) What is the price per gram of Br2?

b) Find the mass (in g) of AgNO3needed to precipitate 90.0%of the in of ocean water.

c) Use Appendix C to find how low [Cl-]must be to prevent the unwanted precipitation of

d) Given a [Cl-]of about 0.3M, is precipitation with silver ion a practical way to obtain bromine from the ocean? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The price per gram of Br2is $1.4410-3.

b) The mass (in g) of AgNO3needed to precipitate 90% of the Br-in 1 L of ocean water is role="math" mAgNO3= 0.124g.

c)2.4610-7molabove Cl-must be used to prevent the unwanted precipitation of AgCl.

d) No, both compounds would precipitate if silver ions were added to ocean water since they are nearly insoluble in water.

Step by step solution

01

 Concept Introduction

Bromine is the second component in the halogen group, and it is found in minute levels in crustal rock as bromide salts, from which it has been leached and then collected in the seas.

02

 Compute the price per gram of  Br2

(a)

We can compute the price of one gram ofBr2 if one cubic mile of ocean water contains $391,000,000worth of Br2and we assume that the mass concentration of Br-is 0.065g/L:

1mile=16093.44decimeters1mi3=4.171012dm31dm3=1L$3910000001mi3=$3910000004.171012L3=9.3810-51L

The amount of Br2in one litre of ocean water is $9.3810-5.

We may determine the price per gram of Br2using mass concentration:

2Br(aq)Br2(aq)+2cm(Br)=0.065gnBr2=12n(Br)MBr2=2A(Br)mBr2=mBr-=0.065g

We can deduct from the chemical equation that the chemical amount ofBr2 is twice as tiny as the chemical amount of Br-. However, because the molar mass of Br2 is two times greater than the atomic mass of Br-, the mass of Br2 is the same as the mass of Br-. So, there is of Br2 in of ocean water, which is worth (per gram):

$9.3810-51L=$9.3810-50.065g=$1.4410-31g

Therefore, the price per gram of Br2is $1.4410-3.

03

 Compute the mass of  AgNO3

(b)

Let's multiply 90% by the chemical amount of bromine ions in 1L:

V(oceanwater)=1.00LmBr-in1Lof ocean water=0.065gnBr-=mBr-ABr-nBr-=0.065g79.904gmolnBr-=8.1310-4molnBr-90%nBr-=8.1310-40.90nBr-90%=7.3210-4mol

Let's replaceBr-ions withAgNO3in the equation and compute the mass ofAgNO3:

Br-(aq)+AgNO3(aq)AgBr(s)+NO3-(aq)nAgNO3=nBr-90%nAgNO3=7.3210-4molmAgNO3=n(AgNO3)MAgNO3mAgNO3=7.3210-4mol169.87gmol-1mAgNO3=0.124g

Therefore, the mass (in g) of AgNO3needed to precipitate 90% of the Br- in 1Lof ocean water is mAgNO3= 0.124g.

04

Compute how long  CI- must be used to prevent unwanted precipitation of  AgCI

(c)

We can find the solubility constant for AgCI by looking at Appendix C.

Ksp=1.810-10

We can utilise Kspto figure out how low Cl-is. To avoid undesirable precipitation of must be:

AgCl(s)Ag+(aq)+Cl-(aq)Ksp=Ag+Cl-Cl-=KspAg+Cl-=1.810-107.3210-4Cl-=2.4610-7mol

Given thatAgCl is very insoluble in water.

Therefore, any chlorine ion concentration greater than2.4610-7 mole would cause precipitation in the circumstances described below (b).

05

 Add silver ion with ocean water

(d)

Bromine can't be obtained from the ocean by precipitation with silver ion. If we look at Appendix C again, we can see thatKsp(AgCl)=1.810-10and Ksp(AgBr)=5.010-13.WhileAgBris less soluble in water thanAgCl.

Therefore, both compounds would precipitate if silver ions were added to ocean water because they are nearly insoluble in water.

The use of silica to form slag in the production of phosphorus from phosphate rock was introduced by Robert Boyle more than years ago. When fluorapatite [Ca5(PO4)3F]is used in phosphorus production, most of the fluorine atoms appear in the slag, but some end up in toxic and corrosive SiF4(g).

(b) In some facilities, the SiF4 is used to produce sodium hexafluoro silicate (Na2SiF6)which is sold for water fluoridation:
