PART – C

Answer any FOUR questions                                                            (4 ´ 10 = 40 marks)

 

  1. Potassium can be determined by flame emission spectrometry using a lithium internal standard.  The following data were obtained for standard solutions of KCl and an unknown containing a constant known amount of LiCl as internal standard.  All the intensities were corrected for background by subtracting the intensity of a blank.
Conc K, ppm Intensity of Emission
1.0 10.0
2.0 15.3
5.0 34.7
7.5 65.2
10.0 95.8
Unknown 47.3

 

Apply the method of least squares to obtain the equation for the best straight line through these points.  Determine the standard deviation of the slope and the result, if the unknown intensity corresponds to the mean of 4 measurements.  Also find out the concentration of K in the unknown.

  1. Draw the flow sheet diagram of HPLC and explain the function of the components.
  2. a) A 0.4085 g sample containing pb, mg and Zn was dissolved and treated with cyanide     to complex and mask the zinc;

Zn+2 + 4 CN   [Zn(CN)4] 2–.

Titration of the lead and magnesium required 42.20 ML of 0.02065 M EDTA.  The lead was next masked with BAL (2,3 dimercaptophepanol), and the released EDTA was titrated with 19.35 mL of 0.007650 m Mg+2 solution.  Finally HCHO was introduced to demask the Zinc;
[Zn(CN)4] 2– + 4HCHO + 4H2O Zn+2 + 2OH + 4 CNCH2OH.
The zinc was then titrated with 28.60 mL of 0.02065 EDTA.  Calculate the percentages of the three metals in the sample.                                                         (7)
