Water from a lake in an area with limestone bedrock has a chemical composition as on p. 310. If the organic matter (HM) content of the water is 12 mg L-1, show that charge balance is adequately maintained. ***If you find that charge balance is not maintained from the tabulated concentrations, calculate the carboxylate concentration (CCOO−) in the HM.

Iron(III) chloride is used to test the purity of your aspirin. Why does salicylic acid reacts with iron(II) ions, Fe3+? O iron and aspirin make violet O impure aspirin is highly concentrated with aspirin O aspirin reacts with any aqueous solution O Salicylic acid contains a phenol group
The first step in purifying the urine collected on the ISS is to treat every liter of urine with 20 mL of 1.0 M H2SO4. To simplify the calculations, lets assume that urine is water. a) What is the pH of a solution of 20. mL of 1.0 M H2SO4 added to 1.00 L water? To determine this, you can safely assume that 100% of the H2SO4 reacts to form H3O+ and HSO4- ions. Use pKa2 (1.92) to determine if any more protons are added to the solution from HSO4-.
