The sea is called "dead" because its high salinity prevents macroscopic aquatic organisms, such as fish and aquatic plants, from living in it, though minuscule quantities of bacteria and microbial fungi are present. In times of flood, the salt content of the Dead Sea can drop from its usual 35% to 30% or lower.
Solution : An oxidation reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between tow species an oxidaion reductin reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule atom or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron
Answer:
(FeSCN⁺²) = 0.11 mM
Explanation:
Fe ( NO3)3 (aq) [0.200M] + KSCN (aq) [ 0.002M] ⇒ FeSCN+2
M (Fe(NO₃)₃ = 0.200 M
V (Fe(NO₃)₃ = 10.63 mL
n (Fe(NO₃)₃ = 0.200*10.63 = 2.126 mmol
M (KSCN) = 0.00200 M
V (KSCN) = 1.42 mL
n (KSCN) = 0.00200 * 1.42 = 0.00284 mmol
Total volume = V (Fe(NO₃)₃ + V (KSCN)
= 10.63 + 1.42
= 12.05 mL
Limiting reactant = KSCN
So,
FeSCN⁺² = 0.00284 mmol
M (FeSCN⁺²) = 0.00284/12.05
= 0.000236 M
Excess reactant = (Fe(NO₃)₃
n(Fe(NO₃)₃ = 2.126 mmol - 0.00284 mmol
=2.123 mmol
For standard 2:
n (FeSCN⁺²) = 0.000236 * 4.63
=0.00109
V(standard 2) = 4.63 + 5.17
= 9.8 mL
M (FeSCN⁺²) = 0.00109/9.8
= 0.000111 M = 0.11 mM
Therefore, (FeSCN⁺²) = 0.11 mM
