    Chem 301: 2004MT1

    Uploaded by

    AmirKazemian
    This document contains a 5 question midterm exam for a chemistry 301 course. The questions cover topics like: 1) The differences between alkalinity and basicity, properties of water from hydrogen bonding, and why CO2 is more soluble in water than predicted by Henry's Law. 2) What makes water "hard" and the visible effects of boiling hard water. 3) Which ligand atoms are most likely to bind with Cd2+ and Ca2+ ions, and why. The exam provides various chemical equations and equilibrium constants that may be useful for solving the problems.

    Chemistry 301 - MIDTERM EXAM #1

    Wednesday, October 6, 2004, 9:00 am


    Explain your answers whenever possible, Calculators are permitted.
    Worth 20 points (20% of course)
    1) (3 points) Briefly answer the following:
    a) What is the difference between alkalinity and basicity?
    b) Briefly describe two properties of water that are a unique consequence of cooperative
    hydrogen bonding.
    c) Why is CO
    2
    more soluble in water than you would predict based on Henry's Law alone?
    2) (3 points) What does it mean when we say that water is "hard"? What visible effects are
    found when hard water is boiled? Why? What is this due to?
    3) (4 points) Given a choice of typical, naturally occurring ligand atoms (list them), which do
    you think is/are the most likely candidates for Cd
    +2
    and Ca
    +2
    , respectively, to bind with?
    Explain why.
    4) (4 points) At pH 7.3, what is the dominant form of total CO
    2
    (CO
    2
    )? What is the ratio of
    [HCO

    2
    is measured to be 2.1 x 10
    -3
    M, what is [CO
    3
    -2
    ]?
    5) (6 points) What is the predicted Mn
    +2
    concentration in equilibrium with MnCO
    3
    (s) at pH
    8.0, in a solution with a carbonate alkalinity of 1.0 x 10
