Date due: October 14, Tuesday 10:00 am



General Instructions:
- Place answers in 1 long ruled pad paper.
- Show all necessary calculations and proper conversion of units. Final answers should be in
proper significant figures
- Box all final answers

1. A 1.7483-g sample containing Al(NO
3
)
3
, AlCl
3
, and inert material was dissolved in acid and
divided into two equal portions. One portion was treated with 5.00 mmol of AgNO
3
. The
excess Ag
+
required 28.89 mL of 0.l002 M KSCN for titration. The other portion required
26.02 mL of 0.1193 M NaOH for titration:
Al
3+
+ 3 OH
-
Al(OH)
3
(s)
Calculate the percentage composition of Al(NO
3
)
3
and AlCl
3
in the sample.

2. An aqueous solution of 0.2100 g of a mixture containing potassium cyanide and chloride
required 14.56 mL of 0.1000 M silver nitrate to produce a faint permanent turbidity; 30.00
mL more of the silver nitrate was added (an excess) and the precipitate of AgCl and AgCN
filtered off from the solution. The filtrate and washings were titrated with 13.06 mL 0.1000
M thiocyanate solution. Calculate the percentages of KCl and KCN in the sample.

3. A 0.4800-g sample that contains KCl, KI and inert material gives a precipitate of AgCl and
AgI that weighs 0.2720 g. A 0.7200-g sample of the same material is titrated with 0.1020 M
AgNO
3
, requiring 25.80 mL. Calculate the percentages of KCl and KI in the sample.

4. Draw the expected titration curve for the following system. Show necessary calculations for
each indicated point.
Solution: 40 mL of 0.2000 M SCN
