Which of these statements are qualitative? Which are quantitative? Explain your choice in each case. (a) Sodium is a silvery-white metal. (b) Aluminum melts at 660 C. (c) Carbon makes up about 23% of the human body by mass. (d) Pure carbon occurs in different forms: graphite, diamond, and fullerenes.
A researcher has developed a new analytical method to determine the percent by mass iron in solids. To test the new method, the researcher purchases a standard reference material sample that is 2.85% iron by mass. Analysis of the iron standard returns values of 2.75%, 2.89%, 2.77%, 2.81%, and 2.87%. Are the results of the new method significantly different from the standard reference sample? (Hint: Use Confidence Interval)

2. The analytical ability of two lab technicians was compared by having each perform analyses for arsenic using the same method on samples having the same origin. For analyst A, s.d. = 0.12%, N=6; and for analyst B, s.d. = 0.06%, N-5. Do these results suggest a difference in the precision of the two chemists?
1. (a) A solution of NaCl is prepared by dissolving 0.0056 g NaCl with enough H2O in a volumetric flask to yield a final volume of 10 mL. Assuming a standard (0.1 mg) analytical balance and class A glassware is employed, calculate the concentration of the solution (M) and its corresponding error. The atomic weights of Na and Cl are 22.98976928(2) and 34.45(1), respectively (the number in parentheses indicating the error in the last digit). (b) What would the error be if a 1mL transfer pipet was employed (10x) rather than the 10 mL volumetric flask?
A new procedure for the rapid determination of sulphur in kerosene was tested on a sample known from its method of preparation to contain 0.123% S (µ = 0.123% S). The results for % S were 0.112, 0.118, 0.115, and 0.119. Determine whether the data indicate that there is a bias in the method at the 95% confidence level
Eight replicate measurements were made on a test solution producing the following results for the concentration of sodium ion (mg/L): 63.91, 65.92, 69.98, 64.24, 65.45, 65.82, 66.51, 65.11. The value 69.98 is an outlier suspect. A Q-test at 95% confidence level will lead to this conclusion with respect to the suspect value: O Should be thrown away Should not be thrown away There is not enough data to draw a conclusion None of the above
You determine the acetic acid (HOAc) content of vinegar by titrating with a sodium hydroxide standard solution to a phenolphthalein (an indicator) end point. An approximately 5-mL sample of vinegar is weighed on an analytical balance in a weighing boat and this is found to be 5.0268 g. The standard deviation in making a single weighing is 0.2 mg. The sodium hydroxide must be accurately standardised (this means its concentration must be accurately determined) by titrating known mass of high-purity potassium hydrogen phthalate, and three such titrations give molar concentrations of 0.1167, 0.1163 and 0.1164 mol L-1. A volume of 36.78 mL of sodium hydroxide is used to titrate each sample. The standard deviation of the burette used is 0.02 mL. Calculate the percentage of acetic acid in the vinegar and its standard deviation.
In the Analytical Chemistry laboratory, one of the B.Sc student Ms. Fatma wanted to analyze the presence of Iron(II) ion in the water samples collected from Sohar Industrial Area in the Sultanate of Oman and analyzed by Spectrophotometric method. (1) 250.00 mL of this water sample (Solution A) known to contain unknown amount of FeSO4. She has diluted Solution A by a dilution factor 10 to make 250.00 mL solution, which she labeled Solution B. Using Spectrophotometer, she has measured the absorbance value (0.642) for Solution B at 508 nm using 1.00 cm cell (cuvet). The molar absorptivity value for Fe2* ion at 508 nm is ɛ508 = 30.8 M-1cm-1.

What instrument should she use to transfer the volume of the Solution A calculated (ii) Concentration of FeSO4 in Solution B. (iv) Concentration of FeSO4 in Solution A. Mass of FeSO4 in Solution A (Show your calculation) (v)
The physical fitness of athletes is measured by “VO2 max,”which is the maximum volume of oxygen consumed by anindividual during incremental exercise (for example, on atreadmill). An average male has a VO2 max of 45 mL O2>kgbody mass/min, but a world-class male athlete can have a VO2max reading of 88.0 mL O2>kg body mass/min. (a) Calculatethe volume of oxygen, in mL, consumed in 1 hr by an averageman who weighs 185 lbs and has a VO2 max reading of 47.5mL O2>kg body mass/min. (b) If this man lost 20 lb, exercised,and increased his VO2 max to 65.0 mL O2>kg body mass/min,how many mL of oxygen would he consume in 1 hr?
(b) Potassium nitrate was synthesized in an experiment using 10 mL of nitric acid and excess potassium hydroxide. The mass data obtained from the experiment is shown in Table 1 below. Given that the percentage yield of potassium nitrate was 88.3 %, calculate the concentration (% m/v) of the nitric acid used in the experiment.
