Consider a solution that is 0.010 M in and 0.020 M in . If sodium sulfate is added to this solution to selectively precipitate one of the cations, which will precipitate first? What is the minimum concentration of that would trigger the precipitation of this cation? From textbook,
Since the solution stoichiometry for both these compounds are similar, it would be appropriate to relate and molar solubility. Since the lower value would require the lower sulfate ion concentration in order to precipitate, it would then follow that would precipitate first.

a) Which precipitates first, AgCl or ? Calculate the when precipitation first begins.
Since the solution stoichiometry for both these compounds are not the same, it would not be appropriate to relate and molar solubility.
To determine which ion precipitates first, we must calculate the cation concentration required for each precipitation. The lower value required for precipitation would indicate the ion that would precipitate first.
[ ] required for AgCl precipitation:

The precipitation occurs for the salt which requires the smallest at equilibrium. Therefore precipitates first at a of
b) What is the when first begins to precipitate?

Blood is buffered by system. Normal blood plasma is and . for at body temperature is 6.1.
a) What is pH of blood plasma?
b) If the volume of blood in a normal adult is 5.0 L , what mass of HCl can be neutralized by the buffering system in blood before the pH falls below 7.0 (which would result in death)?
For to drop by to below , the ratio of base to acid in the buffer must change to 8 (from the current 20). The amount of the components of the buffer in 5.0 L of blood are:
The HCl neutralized by the buffer reacts with to form . Therefore, after is neutralized, the amounts of buffer components will be:
Solving for neutralized):
c) For the same adult in (b), what mass of NaOH can be neutralized before the pH rises above 7.8?
For to rise by 0.4 to above 7.8 , the ratio of base to acid in the buffer must change to 50 (from the current 20). The NaOH neutralized by the buffer reacts with to form . Therefore, after is neutralized, the amounts of buffer components will be:
Solving for neutralized):
An important buffer used in biochemical analysis is made by dissolving TRIS in dilute HCl . A biochemist prepares a buffer by dissolving an unknown amount of TRIS in 1L of 0.095 M HCl solution. The pH of the resulting buffer solution was measured to be 8.53 . How many grams of TRIS was used in this buffer? Assume volume of solution did not change after addition of TRIS.
(Molar mass of TRIS = of TRIS = 5.91)
In order to prepare the buffer, all the HCl in solution must react with added TRIS to form the conjugate acid and leave excess TRIS as the weak base. Therefore,
