Rationalise what adding Na2O (a network modifier) to B2O3 does to the structure of the glass. Begin by sketching the influence of Na(+) and O(2-) on the SRO of the glass to predict the observed changes to MRO and associated bulk properties. If you like, comment on the changes to the dynamics (eg. vibrations) in the glass after modification.

When plotted according to the linear form of the BET equation, data for the adsorption of N2 on Graphon at 77 K give an intercept of 0.005 and a slope of 1.5 (both in cm3 STP per gram). Calculate Asp assuming a molecular area of 16 (angstrom)2 for N2. Calculate also the heat of adsorption for the first layer (the heat of condensation for N2 is 1.3 kcal/mol). Would your answer for Vm be much different if the intercept were taken to be zero (and the slope the same)? Comment briefly on the practical significance of your calculation.

Part a. Regarding micelles, do the electrostatic interactions between the sulfate head groups favor or destabilize micelle formation? How would dielectric interactions very in water vs ethanol if the dielectric constant of ethanol is 24.5 at room temperature. Part b.

A. Consider three possible ways in which Cu2+ could sorb to a hematite surface: (1) outer-sphere sorption, (2) inner-sphere sorption, and (3) precipitation as a Cu(II)-hydroxide. Describe the differences in the coordination environment - i.e. identify of the nearest atomic neighbours and interatomic distance within 0.5 nm (5 Å) of a given Cu(II) ion - of each sorption process. You are welcome to draw a schematic illustration to help clarify your text.
