17-18. H2S(aq) can be analysed by titration with coulometric ally generated l2.

role="math" localid="1654768790950" H2S+l2→S(s)+2H++2l-

To 50.00mL of sample were added 4gof KI. Electrolysis required812s at. 52.6mA . Calculate the concentration ofrole="math" localid="1654769975824" H2S(μ²µ/mL)in the sample.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The concentration ofH2S(μ²µ/mL) in the sample isγ=151μ²µ/mL

Step by step solution

01

Moles of iodine:

One mole (abbreviated mol) is equal to 6.022×1023tiny particles of the material in question. As a result, 6.022×1023atoms are referred to as 1 mol l. The 7×1017atoms of iodine in the RDA we've been talking about would be (7×1017)/(6.022×1023)mol Br or 0.0000012 mol iodine.

02

Calculate mols of iodine:

To see how many electrons are used we need to write the equation for the reduction of iodine :

I2+2e-↤⇒2I-

To calculate mols of iodine used we can use the following relation:

n(I2)=I.tn.F

whereis the Faraday constant, F= 96485C/mol

By inserting the known data, we get:

n(l2)=52.6×10-3A.812s2.96485C/mol=2.213×10-4mol

03

Calculate the concentration of  H2S(μg/mL)in the sample

We can see from the equation in the task question that the mols of iodine are equal to mols of H2Sso the mass concentration H2Sis as follows:

γ(H2S)=m(H2S)V(solution)=n(H2S).M(H2S)V(solution)γ(H2S)=2.213×10-10mol.34.08g/mol50mL=1.51×10-4g/ml=151μ²µ/ml

From the two standard additions of 50 pm Fe(III) in the figure, find the concentration of Fe(III) in the seawater. Estimate where the baseline should be drawn for each trace and measure the peak height from the baseline. Consider the volume to be constant for all three solutions.

Chlorine has been used for decades to disinfect drinking water. An undesirable side effect of this treatment is reaction with organic impurities to create organochlorine compounds, some of which could be toxic. Monitoring total organic halide (designated TOX) is required for many water providers. A standard procedure for TOX is to pass water through activated charcoal, which adsorbs organic compounds. Then the charcoal is combusted to liberate hydrogen halides:

Organichalide(RX)→o2/800°CCO2+H2O+HX

HX is absorbed into aqueous solution and measured by coulometric titration with a silver anode:

X-(aq)+Ag(s)→AgX(s)+e-

When 1.00 L of drinking water was analyzed, a current of 4.23 mA was required for 387 s. A blank prepared by oxidizing charcoal required 6 s at 4.23 mA. Express the TOX of the drinking water as μmol halogen/L. If all halogen is chlorine, express the TOX as μgCI/L.
