Problem 132

Environmental engineers use alkalinity as a measure of the capacity of carbonate buffering systems in water samples: Alkalinity $(\mathrm{mol} / \mathrm{L})=\left[\mathrm{HCO}_{3}^{-}\right]+2\left[\mathrm{CO}_{3}^{2-}\right]+\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right]-\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]$ Find the alkalinity of a water sample that has a pH of 9.5
$26.0 \mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{L} \mathrm{L} \mathrm{O}_{3}^{2-},$ and 65.0 $\mathrm{mg} / \mathrm{L} \mathrm{HCO}_{3}^{-}$

Problem 135

Quantitative analysis of $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ ion is often performed by a titration with silver nitrate, using sodium chromate as an indicator. As standardized AgNO, is added, both white AgCl and red $\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{CrO}_{4}$ precipitate, but so long as some $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ remains, the $\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{CrO}_{4}$ redissolves as the mixture is stirred. When the red color is permanent, the equivalence point has been reached. (a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction
$$
2 \mathrm{AgCl}(s)+\mathrm{CrO}_{4}^{2-}(a q) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{CrO}_{4}(s)+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}(a q)
$$
(b) Explain why the silver chromate redissolves.
(c) If 25.00 $\mathrm{cm}^{3}$ of 0.1000$M \mathrm{NaCl}$ is mixed with 25.00 $\mathrm{cm}^{3}$ of $0.1000 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{AgNO}_{3},$ what is the concentration of Ag' remaining in solution? Is this sufficient to precipitate any silver chromate?

Problem 140

When zinc is refined by electrolysis, the desired half-reaction at the cathode is
$$
\mathrm{Zn}^{2+}(a q)+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Zn}(s)

2 \mathrm{H}^{+}(a q)+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2}(g)
$$

One half-cell has an Ag-wire electrode immersed in the unknown AgCl-saturated NaCl solution.
