2 (1) When performing chemical measurements, replicate experiments are often needed. This is to mitigate (Systematic or Random) error. (2) A CHEM 215 student performed 5 measurements of the wt% of SO4²- of a solid power sample. The results are 8.75%, 8.85%, 8.89%, 8.71%, 8.64%. The standard deviation is 0.10%. What is the confidence interval for this student's experiment at 95% confidence level. The t values for 95% confidence for degree of freedom from 1 to 5 are 12.71, 4.303, 3.182, 2.776, 2.571, respectively. Show your work!
A potassium hydrogen phthalate solution was prepared by adding 0.0996 g of dry potassium hydrogen phthalate (MW = 204.22) in 100 mL distilled water. 1 mL of the prepared potassium hydrogen phthalate solution was transferred using pipette into 500-10000 mg/L COD tube before digested in the thermo-reactor at 148 oC for two hours. Calculate the measured COD reading in mg 02/L from the spectrophotometer at 600 nm if given oxygen molecular weight is 32 and the chemical equation for the oxidation reaction between potassium hydrogen phthalate (C8H5KO4) and chromic acid in the COD reagent tube is as follows: C8H5KO4 + 15/202 + H+ →→ 8C02 +K+ + 3H2O.

The Na* concentration in a blood serum sample was determined using the method of standard addition and atomic spectroscopy. 25.00 mL aliquots of serum were pipetted into five 50.00 mL volumetric flasks into which 2.640 M NaCl standard was added as shown in the table below. After dilution to volume, the emission of each solution was measured and used to plot a calibration graph.

A unique plant was discovered from the hot springs of Maquinit, Coron, Palawan. To study the activity of the plant, approximately 5.00 g of the fresh plant was finely cut and ground and then mixed with an extraction buffer to make up a total of 1.00 mL crude plant extract. Approximately 19.00 mL of water was added to the plant extract. To determine the protein concentration of the extract, a bovine serum albumin (BSA) stock solution with a concentration of 200 ug mL-1 was used and mixtures with the following compositions and absorbance readings were prepared: A 200 uL aliquot of the diluted plant extract was added with 300 uL water and was subjected to Bradford assay. Determine the protein concentration, in mg mL-1, of the original 1.00 mL crude extract if the absorbance acquired from the analysis is 0.200.
Suppose that something had gone "wrong" in the Big Bang and, instead of ordinary hydrogen, there was an abundance of deuterium in the Universe. There would be many subtle changes in equilibria, particularly the deuteron transfer equilibria of heavy acids and bases. The Kw for D20, at 25 °C, is 1.35 x 10-15. Calculate the pD and pOD in neutral heavy water at 25 °C. Ans: 7.45
