A water treatment tablet contains 20.0 mg of tetraglycine hydroperiodide, 40.0% of which is available as soluble iodine. If two

tablets are used to treat 1.00 liter of drinking water, what is the concentration in ppm of iodine in the treated water

Answer:

16\ \text{ppm}

Explanation:

Mass of one tablet = 20 mg

Mass of two tablets = 2\times 20=40\ \text{mg}

Percent that is soluble in water = 40%

Mass of tablet that is soluble in water = 0.4\times 40=16\ \text{mg}

So, mass of solute is 16\ \text{mg}

Density of water = 1 kg/L

Volume of water = 1 L

So, mass of 1 L of water is 1\times 1=1\ \text{kg}=1000\ \text{g}

PPM is given by

\dfrac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent}}\times 10^6=\dfrac{16\times 10^{-3}}{1000}\times 10^6\\ =16\ \text{ppm}

Hence, the concentration of iodine in the treated water 16\ \text{ppm}.

Let's Assign Symbols to molecules like,

                    C₂O₄  =  X
and 
                    H₂O   =  Y
Then,
                                K [ Co (X)₂ (Y)₂ ]

As, Potassium (K) has a O.N  =  +1

To neutralize, the coordination sphere must have -1 oxidation number.
So,
                                    [ Co (X)₂ (Y)₂ ]  =  -1
As,
           O.N of X  = -2
Then 
       O.N of (X)₂  =  -4

Also,
O.N of H₂O is zero as it is neutral, So,

                                    [Co - 4 + 0 ]  =  -1
Or,
                                    Co  =  -1 + 4

                                    Co  =  +3

Result:
          Oxidation Number of Coordination Sphere is -1 and Oxidation Number of Cu is +3.

What do you do with unused (excess) chemicals that are taken from reagent bottles?
Tanzania [10]
Don't ever return unused chemicals to their original containers. If you do, you could be contaminating the chemical. Discard the leftover chemical in the correct waste box. Ask your teacher if your not sure about what to do.

Calculate the number of carbon atoms in 25.0 grams of isopropyl alcohol (c3h8o)
allochka39001 [22]
First, let's determine the number of moles of carbon atoms by using molar mass. Then, using Avogadro's number, we can find the number of C atoms:
*1 mole of C3H8O= (12.0x3)+(1.0x8)+(16.0x1) = 60.0g/mol

25.0 grams C3H8O x (1 mole C3H8O/60.0 grams) = 0.417 mol

0.417mol C3H8O has (3 x 0.417 moles) C atoms = 1.251 moles C atoms

1.251 moles C atoms x(6.022x10^23 atoms/mol) = 9.42x10^23 C atoms.

The answer is in 3 significant figures, as that's what we have in the given, and we matched it with our rounding of the atomic masses from the periodic table.
You can do this all in one equation written left to right, just exclude the intermediate answers. Just easier to show it this way on the computer screen.

The atomic weight of iodine is less than the atomic weight of tellurium. However, Mendeleev listed iodine after tellurium in his
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The reason for the suspicion was because the manner in which iodine reacted chemically as well as its other chemical properties, indicated that it belonged in the same group as chlorine and bromine, while the much heavier tellurium should be placed in the previous group

The suspicion was proved to be correct when the atomic number of tellurium was found to be 52 and that of iodine was found to be 53 by later scientists
