TUTORIAL (GRAVIMETRIC)

1. Calculate the weight of sodium present in 50.0 g Na2SO4?


16.20 g

2. If the salt in Problem 1 is analysed by precipitating and weighing BaSO4, what mass of
precipitate would be obtained?

82.04 g

3. How many grams of CuO and As2O3 are obtained in 1.00 g Paris green,
Cu(C2H3O2)2•3Cu(AsO2)2?
CuO = 0.315 g
As2O3 = 0.5846 g

4. Iron in an ore is to be analysed gravimetrically by weighing as Fe2O3. It is desired that


the results be obtained to four significant figures. If the iron content ranges between
11 and 15%, what is the minimum size sample that must be taken to obtain 100.0 mg
of precipitate?
0.4666 g

5. What weight of Fe2O3 precipitate would be obtained from 0.4823 g sample of iron wire
that is 99.89 % pure?
0.688 g

6. How much of BaCl2. 2H2O are needed to precipitate all sulphate ions in 13.340 gram
of Fe2 (SO4)3 sample?
24.32 g

7. 5 g mineral contain CuS. Sulphurs in the mineral are converted to sulphate ions and
then precipitated to BaSO4. The precipitate obtained is 1.5 g. How many percent of
CuS in the mineral?

12.36%

8. 1.615 g of iron ore sample was analysed gravimetrically by dissolved in concentrated


hydrochloric acid and precipitated with ammonia. The Fe(III) precipitate was formed
is Fe2O3. X H2O. After filtration, the precipitate was heated at higher temperature to
produce 0.5494 g of pure Fe2O3. Determine the percentage of iron in Fe3O4 in the
sample.
32.88 %

9. Write the solubility product expressions for the following :


a) AgSCN

AgSCN Ag+ + SCN-

Ksp = [Ag+] [SCN-]

b) La(IO3)3

La(IO3)3 La3+ + 3IO-


Ksp = [La3+] [IO-]3

c) Bi2S3

Bi2S3 2Bi3+ + 3S2-


Ksp = [Bi3+]2 [S2-]3

10. What is the concentration of Ag+ and CrO42-in a saturated solution of Ag2CrO4 if given Ksp
= 1.1 x 10-12 ?

[Ag+] = 1.34 x 10-4 M

[CrO42-] = 6.5 x 10-5 M

11. What must be the concentration of PO43- to just start precipitating Ag3PO4 in 0.10 M
AgNO3 solution if Ksp = 1.3 x 10-20?
The concentration of PO43- must > 1.3 x 10-17 M.
