Ans:
Yes, the EDTA would be useful for detecting the metal ions. In principle, if EDTA can be chelated or complexed with the metal ions, they can be estimated by titration using suitable pH buffer and indicator. EDTA is a hexa-dentate chelator with four carboxylic acid and two amino nitrogens also as donors. This type of titrations are called is complexometric titration. The metal complexes are formed as per the below reaction:
Mn+ (metal ion) + Y4- (EDTA ion) → MY(n-4) (complexed ion)

Pre-Lab for Qualitative Analysis of Silver Group I Cations Lab 1. What are the ions that are considered Group I cations? 2. Based on the Activities Series of Elements, explain why Group I ions would form precipitates when a strong, concentrated acid (such as HCI) is added to them. 3. Pby, and K Cro, will react with each other to form a precipitate if the concentrations are high enough. Write the complete, balanced equation for the reaction of Pbs and...
5. What was the purpose of the NaNO3 solution in this experiment? 6. Could a solution of NaCl be used instead of NaNO3? 7. What was the purpose of FeSO4 solution in this experiment? 8. Could a solution of FeCl, be used instead of FeSO4? 9. Could a solution of NaSO4 be used instead of FeSO4? 10. Calculate the standard cell potential for the spontaneous redox reaction between a Pb(s)/Pb(NO3)2(aq) half-cell and a Ag(s)/AgNO3(aq) half-cell. Which metal would be oxidized?...
2. If two different compounds have the same Rr value, how might they be identified using paper chromatography? 3. Why is it important to keep the spots on the paper as small as possible? 4. If the solvent pool at the bottom of the beaker touched the spots on the 1.5cm line, what would happen to the spots? How would you address this error? 5. If you were teaching a student how to do paper chromatography, what three pieces of...
Pre-Lab Exercise 2-3 Chemical Bonding One of the more challenging concepts to grasp in chemistry is chemical bonding, a topic that pops up again and again in A&P: We revisit it in cytology, the nervous system, blood, respiration, and digestion-to name just a few First let's do some basics. Use your textbook and this unit to answer the following questions 1. Do metals donate or accept electrons? What do they become after they donate/accept electrons? 2. Do nonmetals donate or...
d. Suppose you mistakenly acidify the filtrate with HCl instead of with HNO3. What would you obser after completing the halide test, and what would that observation lead you to conclude? Organic Laboratory Technique Primer Sodium Fusions and lon Testing Background: The elements that commonly occur in organic compounds along with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, are: nitrogen sulfur, and the halogens. The detection of these latter three elements depends on converting them into water soluble lons (CNS , and X...

Name Lab Section _Date The Mole Concept and Atomic Weights The purpose of this activity is to better understand the concepts of relative atomic mass, counting by weighing and the mole. Percent composition and average atomic mass are included. Part I. Relative Atomic Masses and the Mole - Early Method When John Dalton proposed his atomic theory, he stated that the atoms of each element...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
