78 mg L–1 is equivalent to:
78 ppm
4.0 ppm is equivalent to:
4.0 μg mL–1
4.5%(w/w) KF is equivalent to

When would you use a quantitative analysis ?
when determining the sodium content in mineral water
Which best describes a electrical conductivity analytical method?
The measurement of combined level of dissolved salts
Atomic absorption spectroscopy is suitable for the detection of many metals. A solution of an unknown metal is compared with solutions of known concentration. The most likely unit of concentration used in such analyses would be
ppm (Parts per million)
Aluminium can be produced by the reaction between alumina, Al2O3, and carbon. The equation for the reaction is
2Al2O3(l) + 3C(s) → 3CO2(g) + 4Al(l)
What would result in the production of 0.8 mol of aluminium?
0.4 mol of Al2O3 and 0.6 mol of C
Calculate the mass of water that is produced when 2.80 g of propane, C3H8, is completely burned in air.
C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O
n(C3H8) = m/M = 2.80/44.0 = 0.0636 mol Therefore,
n(H2O) = 4 × 0.0636 = 0.254 mol and m(H2O)
= n × M =
0.254 × 18.0 = 4.57 g.
What mass of water will be produced if 25.0 g of hydrogen gas, H2, and 100.0 g of oxygen gas, O2, are mixed and ignited?
2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)
n(H2) = m/M = 25.0/2.0 = 13 mol and n(O2) = m/M = 100.0/32.0 = 3.13 mol
H2 is in excess (3.13 mol of O2 reacts with 2 × 3.13 = 6.26 mol of H2).
Therefore, O2 is the limiting reactant.
n(H2O) = 2 × n(O2) =
m/M = 2 × 3.13 = 6.26 mol
m(H2O) = n × M =
6.26 × 18.0 = 113 g
A standard solution is a solution that has
an accurately known formula.
Primary standard must
Be readily obtainable in pure form, have a known formula and not absorb water from the atmosphere
To prepare a standard solution, the set of apparatus normally used is
A wash bottle, an electronic balance and a volumetric flask.
A titre is a volume measured using a
Burette
