Problem Set Aqueous Reactions and Electrochemistry Due: November 21, 2016 1. The vanadium in a sample of ore is converted to VO2+. The VO2+ ion is subsequently titrated with MnO4- in 2. acidic solution to form V(OH)4+ and manganese (II) ion. The unbalanced titration reaction is: MnO4 (aq) + VO2+(aq) + H2O(l) V(OH)4+(aq) + Mn2+(aq) + H+(aq) To titrate the solution, 26.45 ml of 0.02250 M MnO4- was required. If the mass percent of vanadium in the ore was 58.1 %, what was the mass of the ore sample? 2. Balance the following equations using the half-reaction method a. Fe(s) + HCl(aq) HFeCl4(aq) + H2(g) b. IO3-(aq) + I-(aq) I33. Gold metal will not dissolve in either concentrated nitric acid or concentrated hydrochloric acid. It will dissolve, however, in aqua regia, a mixture of the two concentrated acids. The products of the reaction are the AuCl4- ion and gaseous NO. Write a balanced equation for the dissolution of gold in aqua regia. 4. A zinc-copper battery is constructed as follows at 25 oC: Zn lZn2+ ll Cu2+ l Cu The mass of each electrode is 200 g. a.

Consider a galvanic cell involving iron (III) nitrate and silver and silver nitrate: a. Draw the galvanic cell, labeling the anode, the cathode and the direction of the electron flow. b. Give the line notation diagram for this process. 6. An aqueous solution of an unknown salt of ruthenium is electrolyzed by a current of 2.50 A passing for 50.0 minutes. If 2.618 g Ru is produced at the cathode, what is the charge on the ruthenium ions in solution? 7. An unknown metal M is electrolyzed. It took 74.1 s for a current of 2.00 A to plate out 0.107 g of the metal from a solution containing M(NO3)3. Identify the metal. 8. Three electrochemical cells were connected in series so that the same quantity of electrical current passes through all three cells. In the first cell, 1.15 g chromium metal was deposited from a chromium(III) nitrate solution. In the second cell, 3.15 g osmium was deposited from a solution made of Osn+1 and nitrate ions. What is the name of the salt? In the third cell the electrical charge passed through a solution containing X2+ ions caused deposition of 2.11 g metallic X. What is the electron configuration of X? 9.
