PREFACE In common with many other teachers of chemistry, the compilers of this voluine believe that the working of suitable numerical examples is the best aid to the understanding of the quantitative aspect of chemical phenomena. The ideal calculations are those made by the student from his own experimental data, but it is necessary for him to use the figures of other workers and the data of experiments which he himself cannot perform. For this reason the following set of numerical examples has been compiled. It is drawn from recent examination papers and from various original sources. A number of the examples available in examination papers have been rejected because they had no conceivable relation to possible experimental conditions, and were therefore misleading. In most of the chapters a concise explanatory statement precedes the questions for solution. It is not intended that this should take the place of wider reading and study, but rather that it should indicate the portions of the text-book relevant to the particular subject under discussion, and provide a brief summary of what should be found there. It is believed, however, that the matter is put in its correct order, that it is in accord with present-day kpowledge, and that certain of the beginner's difńculties are explained more clearly than is often the case. Dogmatic rules for obtaining an answer have, it is hoped been avoided.
iv PREFACE Nowadays the teacher of chemistry finds it unnecessary, as a rule, to give preliminary lectures on elementary physics. At the same time, it is noteworthy that most students learn the application of Boyle's law and of Charles' law from their chemical training. Hence this book deals less with elementary physics than lias been the case in previous works of the same character, but contains some simple exercises on the two laws mentioned. It is assumed that the student has a working knowledge of the metric system, and it is desirable that he should understand the use of logarithms. It is also considered advisable to insist from the outset that careful attention be paid to the significance of the digits in experimental numbers and in results calculated from them, a subject which receives too little attention even in some original papers in the chemical and physical journals. Only in this way is it possible to avoid confusion in such a case as the choice between an approximate and an exact atomic weight for a particular purpose. In adhering to this principle, it has been necessary to make slight alterations in certain of the examples obtained from examination papers and other sources, e.g. the substitution of " 1.000 gram" or "1.0000 gram," as the case may seem to deinand, for the expression one gram.” Where any change in the statement of a copied question has been introduced, the word "adapted” is added. This is done in order to avoid omission of several slightly faulty questions which, with some alteration, become valuable. As regards the standard of difficulty, most of the chapters contain some questions suitable for beginners, and others for advanced students. The beginner should find little difficulty in choosing suitable ones for himself from the neighbourhood of those taken from Intermediate Science examination papers, PREFACE The thanks of the compilers are due to the authorities of the Universities of Manchester, Leeds, and London, of the Institute of Chemistry, and to the Controller of H.M. Stationery Office, for permission to reprint calculations from the examination papers under their control. Their thanks are also due to the Controller of H.M. Stationery Office, and to Messrs. Macmillan & Co., Ltd. for permission to reproduce the four-figure logarithm table at the end of the book; and, finally, to Mr. F. W. Atack, B.Sc. Tech., for checking many of the answers. H. F. C. W.

EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION CHAPTER I INTRODUCTORY-CALCULATIONS FROIL EXPERIMENTAL DATA ONE of the principal difficulties which confront the student in making numerical calculations from experi. mental data is that of deciding the number of figures he shall retain in his fipal result. If, for instance, the fraction is to be expressed in decimals, the ordinary arithmetical process may be carried out until the figure 1.571428 is obtained. As the quotient in dividing exactly 11 by exactly 7, this is a perfectly correct solution But in scientific measurements there is no such thing as exactly 11, because every measurement is subject to a certain error of observation. It is advantageous for such measurements to be expressed in figures which show not only the numerical result obtained, but also the accuracy with which the measurement has been made. When the weight of a crucible is said to be 11 grams it is usual to assume that the weight is known to the nearest gram, i.c. it is more than 10:5 and less than 11.5. Similarly, if the weight is given as 11:0 grams it is known to be more than 10 95 and less than 11:05, and so on. it is recognized that the number 38342 is subject to a possible error of + 0.00005 or about 1 part in 80,000. If this be borne in mind it will be quite clear that in calculations from such numbers all the possible errors Ir this way B 2 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COLLAP. in the data will be transferred to the result of the calculation, Consequently the result will be subject to at least the same uncertainty as the least accurate of the data, and the final figure must be made to express that fact. It is therefore obvious that in adding together 10.7251 1.9 2:35 SLI 14.9751 the last three figures of the sum have no significance, for the number 1:9 has a possible error of + 0.05, and the may have at least this error. The result will therefore be correctly expressed by 15:0, though if the number is to be used in further calculation it is advisablo to retain one more figure and write 14.98. (In choosing the above figures a process of rounding off has been used in which it will be seen that the last figure retained has been increased by unity because the portion discarded was equal to more than half such a unit. If the sun had been 14:9215, the figures would have been 14.9 and 14.92 respectively.) The abovo arguments may now be illustrated by further examples, 760 12.7 = 747 0:031 • 17.624 = 0.0018 441.46 -0.921 479 0.012786 x 12.2 = 0.156 In the first case the result cannot be given as 7473 because the original 760 is presumably only correct to the nearest unit. In the other cases the calculation is only carried so far as to produce a figure in which the accuracy is of the same order as in the least accurate of the data. It will further be seen that recurring decimals have 1.) CALCULATIONS FROM EXPERIMENTAL DATA 3 no practical significance since they represent quantities in which the figures after the decimal point may be continued indefinitely, i.e. in which the possible error is infinitely small. A difficulty which may sometimes arise is illustrated in multiplying 1728 by 1.2. The product, 20736 obviously contains three meaningless figures. It would not be much more satisfactory to express the result as 2100, i.e. 2100 + 0.5. A convenient method in such cases is to express the above result, for instance, as 2:1 x 103. It will be clear froin the results obtained above that it is not necessary to carry out the whole arithmetical process with all the figures available, since the same solution can be obtained by dispensing with unnecessary digits in the more accurate numbers, e.g. in 0.031 17.624, it is quite sufficient to use 0.031 – 17.6. Therefore, as a general rule, when a number of figures are to be subjected to multiplication or division it is advisable to (I.) Inspect the numbers given, and decide which one shows the smallest degree of accuracy. (II.) Round off all the other numbers so that they contain at most only one more significant figure than tle least accurate number. For example 0.0060 X 760.0 x 292-43 33.023 x 7633 x 273-0 x 0.0000899 In this caso the number 0 0060 is much less accurate than any of the others, and since this contains two significant figures the others may be rounded off to contain three, while the final result will only be correct to 'one part in 120. The expression is simplified to- 0.0060 X 760 X 292 33.0 X 763 x 273 x 0.0000899 4 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION CONAP. I. the result being 2:15. This figure, however, is subject to an error greater than 0-005, which is, in fact, nearly 0.02. So the result might be given as 2:15 + 0.02. When the numbers for calculation have been suitably rounded off, the calculation itself should be carried out by abbreviated methods of multiplication and division, or better still by the use of logarithms. In the latter case it is necessary to use logarithm tables calculated to a suitable number of figures. Four-figure tables will suffice for most chemical calculations, although in special cases five-figure or even seven-figure tables may be necessary. The above arguments are all concerned with the accuracy of observations, e.g. the accuracy of a weighing, of the reading of a volume from the scale on a burette, or of a thermometer reading. This is quite distinct from error in the experimental processes connected with the observation. If, for instance, the amount of sodium chloride in a solution has been estimated by evaporating the water, the errors of observation (weighing) may have been only, say, 0.02 per cent.; the result is correctly calculated when carried out to this degree of accuracy (0-02 per cent.). The actual process, which is supposed to be the complete separation of water from sodium chloride, may have been imperfectly carried out, i.e. some water may have been retained in the residue, or some sodium chloride may have been lost. It would be mere coincidence that the errors due to these two causes shoulů balance each other, so that the process is subject to experimental errors which are quite distinct from the errors due to lack of sensitiveness of the measuring instrument (the balance). What concerns us in the following pages is that the. result, without containing any superfluous figures, shall be expressed as accurately as the data permit.
7426 HAN WA CHAPTER II THE LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION BY WEIGUT -CHEMICAL EQUIVALENTS To understand the laws of chemical combination it is necessary to be able to deduce them from experimental data. Since it is on these laws that the whole quantitative study of chemistry depends, it is not surprising that their exactuess has been made the subject of searching investigation, Law of the Conservation of Mass.-1.000 gram of oxygen will unite with 0.126 gram of hydrogen to form water weighing 1.000 + 0.126 1.126 gram. Many such experiments have been performed with various substances, with the highest degree of accuracy possible to modern science. The result is the establishment of the Law of the Conservation of Mass, which states that in any chemical or physical change, the total mass of the system remains constant. (The mass of a body is measured by its weight.) Law of Fixed Ratios.—This law deals with the relation between the masses of substances taking part in a chemical action. Berzelius in considering the formation of lead sulphide froin its elements found that (I.) 25.000 grams of lead produced 28.855 grams of lead sulphide.
6 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COHAP. (II.) 15.000 grams of lead produced 17.3125 grams of lead sulphide, i.e. one gram of lead produced (I.) = 1.1542 28.855 25.000 17.3125 15.000 gram of lead (11.) 1.1542 sulphide. Thus the combining quantities of lead and sulphur are in the constant ratio of 1:0 1542. The same conclusion is reached when other reactions are considered, and the more carefully the experiments have been performed, the more concordant have been the results. The constancy of ratio is not confined to the combination of two elements to form a compound, but is always found between the weights of any number of substances (elements or coinpounds) reacting in the same way. The general expression of these facts is the Law of Fixed Ratios, which has been stated as follows: Definite chemical compounds always contain their constituents in fixed and definite proportions, or- If several substances react together, then their masses as well as those of the new bodies formed always bear fixed proportions to each other. EXAMPLES.—(If logarithms are used for the examples in this section, seven-figure tables are necessary.) Show how the pumbers of questions 1 and 2 illustrato the exactuoss of the law of defuito proportions. 1. Berzelius synthesized silver sulphide. (Ostwald's Klas siker, 35, p. 89.) 2.605 grams silver gave 2.993 grams of sulphide 10.00 11.49 Stas did the same with greater precautions. (Brux, Acar, Sci. Bull., 1861, 255.)

The student may criticize Stas' last figaro in tho calculated percentago in one or two instances. 4. Berzelius found that 10.000 grams of silver produced 13 275 grams of silver chloride; 30.000 grams of lead produced 43.900 grams of lead sulphate; 10-000 grams of lend chloride on treatment with silver nitrate formed 10320 grams of silver chloride, which contained all the chlorine originally > 1 Ro 8 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAP. in the load chloride; and finally that 10.000 grams of lead chloride on treatment with sulphuric acid produced 10.920 grams of lead sulphate. What is tho composition of lead chloride deduced from these figures ? Law of Multiple Ratios. -Lead and oxygen unite to form several compounds, each being an example of the law of fixed ratios. Berzelius, on analyzing two oxides of lead, expressed their percentage compositions as follows: Load, Oxygen. A. 92.85 7.15 B. 86.51 13.19 The fact that the numbers are expressed in percentages obscures a simple relation which exists between the combining ratios. This becomes apparent when the figures are recast so as to have a constant quantity of one element in both analyses, e.g.-- 92.85 A contains = 13.0 of lead to 1:00 of oxygen by weight 7:15 86-51 B contains 6:41 13.49 The ratio 13:0:641 is 2:03:1, ie, the ratio of lead to oxygen is approximately twice as great in A aš in B. In all other cases, too, it is found that the quantities deduced in the above manner are connected by a simple numerical ratio, and the more rigorous the experimental conditions, the more conclusive are the results. Such results are all comprised in the Law of Multiple Ratios or Multiple Proportions, which may be stated as follows: If two substances, A and B, react in more than one ratio, the various masses of A which react with a fixed mass of B bear a simple ratio to each other. 5. Two oxides of nitrogen have the following compositions:-(i.) Nitrogen = 63.63 and oxygon = 36.36 per cont. (ü.) Nitrogon = 46.66 and oxygen = 53.33 por cent.

Discuss the following experiments of Berzelius in the light of the law of multiple proportions : A. The artificial sulphide of iron was prepared by direct union of the elements. 2.00 grains of this body were taken and so treated that the sulphur was first converted into sulphuric acid and then separated as barium sulphate, of wbich 5-38 grams were obtained. Berzolius had previously shown that barium gulphato contained 34:00 per cent. of sulphuric anhydride, and that sulphuric anhydride contained 40.58 per cent. of sulphur. The iron contained in the artificial sulphido was precipitated in tho form of iron oxide (containing 69:34 per cont, of iron). From the 2.00 grams of sulphido were obtained 1.82 grams of oxide. B. The natural sulphide of iron (pyrites), which contained # littlo silica as impurity, was ronsted in a current of air to form the oxiile. 10:00 grams of pyrites gavo 6.67 grams of oxidized residue, which was found to contain 0:07 gram of silica, the remainder being iron oxido (containiug 69:34 per cent. of iron). 11. Berzelius found that (u) 10.00 grams of copper when complotely converted to black oxido gavo 12.45 grams of the latter, and (b) 10.00 granis of black copper oxido and 10:00 grams of copper when heated in a closed vessel with hydrochlorio acid loft an updissolved residue of 1.97 grams of copper. Assuming that tho copper oxide and copper combincil to form another oxide which dissolvod in the hydrochloric acid, use thcsc figures to illustrate the law of multiple proportions. Law of Equivalents.--Berzelius gave the percentage compositions of three substances thus- Sulphuric anbydride. Ferric oxide. Ferrous sulphide. ... I. Sulphur Oxygen 40:59 53.42 Iron Oxygen 69.34 30.66 Iron Sulphur 63 0 37.0 ... From the second column it is seen that the amount of oxygen which will combine with 63 parts of iron 11.) LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION 11 63.0 = 30.66 x 69.34 27-8, i.e. 37.0 parts of sulphur (see third column or 27.8 parts of oxygen combine with the same amount (63 parts) of iron. These numbers, 37:0 and 27:8, are in the ratio 1:0.75, which is almost exactly twice the combining ratio of sulphur and oxygen in the 40-58 first compound, sulphuric anhydride, for =1:1.46. 59:42 In all such cases it is found that the ratio of the quantities of two substances which react with each other is the same as (or a simple multiple of) the ratio of the quantities which react with a third substance. Another example. -8 grams of oxygen combine with 1 gram of hydrogen to forin water, or with 23 grams of sodium to form an oxide of sodium. It has also been showu that 1 gram of hydrogen unites with 23 grams of sodium to form sodium hydride. All such cases are comprised in the law of equivalents (sometimes called the Law of Combining Proportions, or the Law of Reciprocal Proportions), thus-- The masses of different substances A and B which react with the same mass of another substance Care either identical with, or bear a simple ratio to, the masses which will react with one another, or to the masses which will combine with a fixed mass of another substance D. 12.

Illustrate the law of equivalents and deduce the composition of sulphuric anhydride from the following experimental data of Berzelius :- (i.) 25.000 grams of lead gave 28.855 grams of lead sulphide. (ü.) 25.000 grams of lead gavo 26.925 grams of lend oxido. (iii.) 30.000 grams of lead gavo 43.90 grams of load sulphate. (iv.) 30.000 grams of leal oxido gave 40-77 grams of lead sulpbate. (v.) In experiments on the oxidation of lead sulphide it was shown that this substance may be converted into sulphato without any lead or sulphur being liberated or converted into any other substance, i.e. the process consists viorely in the taking up of oxygen by tho sulphido to form the sulpliate. Lead sulphate is formed by the direct union of lead oxide and sulphuric anhydride. The Meaning of " Simple Ratio.”—In the statement of the above laws the expression "simple ratio" has been used without any qualifying term to indicate the degree of simplicity which is implied. In general it will be found that the ratio will be capable of expression by two integers rarely greater than 5. In the case. of many carbon compounds and certain mineral substances, however, ratios of greater complexity may be obtained. Equivalents.-A slightly restricted but at the same time more useful meaning has been given to the term "equivalent." If a fixed weight of a particular element be taken as standard quantity, the equivalent of any other element is the weight which is capable of combining LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION 13 with or replacing the fixed weight of the standard element. The standard usually chosen is exactly 8 units of oxygen; the equivalent of hydrogen is then 1:008, for in the commonest compound of hydrogen and oxygen, namely water, the two elements are united in the ratio of 1.008 of hydrogen to 8 of oxygen. Similarly 32:7 is the equivalent of zinc, since 32-7 parts by weight of zinc will displace 1:008 part by weight of hydrogen from sulphuric acid. The law of multiple proportions, however, indicates the limitations of the use of equivalents. 1.008 part by weight of hydrogen is equivalent to 8 parts by weight of oxygen in the compound water ; but in hydrogen peroxide it is equivalent to 16 parts by weight of oxygen. An element or group of elements may thus have several equivalents, but they will always be in the ratio of simple whole numbers. Therefore in working the following examples it must be remembered that the equivalent weights refer to the elements as present in the particular compound under consideration, Equivalent weights of the elements, although thus restricted in use, are valuable because (i.) they express facts which are independent of any theory, and hence will not be abandoned on account of any new chemical theory that may be introduced in the future ; (ii.) they are at present by far the most exact numbers from which the relative weights of the atoms are deduced with the aid of the atomic and molecular theories. 16. 5.00 grams of motallic magnesium when dissolved in hydrochloric acid evolved 0-417 gram of hydrogen. What is the equivalent of magnesium ? (General Class, Manc.) 16. Calculato the equivalent of silver from the following data. 0.501 gram of silver dissolved in nitric acid gave ou Addition of hydrochloric acid 0-6655 gram of silver chloride, [Eqnivalent of chlorine is 35-46.] (London Pro.

B.Sc., Manc.) 18. 1.560 grams of liquid chloride of phosphorus wore decomposed by excess of wator. The resulting liquid, after adding silver nitrate, filtering, washing and drying the precipitated silver chloride, gave 4.883 grams of silver chlorido. From theso data calculate tho equivalent of phosphorus, assuming the equivalents of silver and chlorine to bo 107-9 and 35.45 respectively, (London Inter. Intl., 1909.) 19. On the assumption that tho equivalent of mercury is 99.25, calculato to two placos of decimals tho cquivalents of oxygon, hydrogen, copper, sulphur, and chlorine from the following data. Mercuric oxido contains 92.59 per cent. of mercury; cupric oxido contains 79.9 per cent. of copper; capric chloride contains 47-3 per cent, of copper; sulphurettol hydrogen contuins 94.07 per cent. of sulphur; hydrogen chloride contains 97.23 per cent. of chlorino. (London Inter. Extl., 1907.) 20. 0·8648 gram of the black oxirle of copper was so treated that there resulted 0.7781 gram of the rod oxiile. By a further treatment the whole of this red oxide was converted into puro copper, which weighed 0:6919 gram. What is the equivalent of copper in each compound?
www * 1426 WOWA CHAPTER III THE RELATIONS BETWEEN PRESSURE, TEMPERATURE, AND VOLUME IN GASES--PARTIAL PRESSURES AND VAPOUR PRESSURES CIIEMICAL calculations are primarily concerned with the mass or quantity of matter undergoing change. The mass of a solid or of a liquid is, as a rule, quickly obtained by direct weighing, but the weighing of a gas is a more troublesome operation, and is less often carried out in practice. Once the mass of a given volume, i.e. the density, of a gas has been determined it is simpler, instcad of weighing, to calculate the mass of another quantity of the gas from a measurement of its volume. The volume of the gas, however, varies so considerably with alterations in pressure and temperature, that a volume measurement gives no idea of quantity unless the temperature and pressure are defined. The variation in volume for a given change of temperature or pressure is nearly the same for all gases, so that the following general laws are almost independent of the nature of tho gas, within wide limits of temperaturo and pressure. Boyle's Law (or Marriotte's Law).--When a fixed quantity of gas at a constant temperature is subjected to an increased pressure, the volume decreases proportionately, and vice versa. If the pressure is doubled, the volume is halved, and if the pressure is made one-tenth of V a B P.V. 16 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION (chap, its original amount, the volume becomes ten times as great. In general, the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure, provided the temperature remains unchanged. Expressed in symbols 1 1 or V = K. P where K is a constant; or PV = K, i.e. the product of the pressure into the volume is a constant quantity for the same mass of gas at a fixed temperature, In most chemical calculations the volume is measured in cubic centimetres (c.c.) and the pressure in millimetres (mm.) of mercury. For example, if 200 c.c. of air are measured at 760 mm., what will be the volume at 1000 mm., at constant temperature ? K = P V2 760 x 200 = 1000 x the new volume in c.c. 200 X 760 .. new volume = 152 c.c. 1000 The student will probably find it best to argue somewhat as follows: 200 c.c. of air at 760 mm), = 200 X 760 с.c. at 1 mm. 200 X 760 C.C. at 1000 mm. 1000 = 152 c.c. The law of Boyle is only approximately true, accurate experiments showing deviations which are too large to be attributed to crrors in measurement. For the calculations which appear in this and the following chapters, Boyle's law may be applied unless the contrary is expressly stated, since it is sufficiently accurate at ordinary pressures for all except the most refined measurements. 1.-A. gas 'occupies 100 c.c. at a pressure of 340 mm. of mercury. .

What would be the volumo if the mercury were brought to the same level inside and outside the tube ? 6. A volume of gas together with a crystal of rock salt measuros 150.0 c.c. at 760 mm. pressure. On raising the pressure to 1000 mm. the combined volume becomes 116-4 c.c. What is the volume of the crystal ? Charles' Law (or Gay-Lussac's Law) deals with the change in volume of a fixed quantity of a gas with change in temperature. A gas will expand at(or 0:00366) of its volume at 0° Centigrade for every degree Centigrade through which it is heated, when the pressure is kept constant. It must be noted that the fraction at: is dependent on the standard reference temperature of 0° C. Thus if Charles' law is applied to the convenient quantity of 273 C.C. of gas measured at 0° C., it shows that the volume at 1° C. is 273 + 1 = 274 c.c., at -2° C. it will be 273 - % = 271 c.c., while at 10° C. it will be 273 + 10 = 283 6.0.

Absolute zero or – 273° C. is the temperature at which, if Charles' Law were absolutely accurate, all gases would have zero volume. This being impossible Charles' Law evidently does not apply at very low temperatures, so that the methods of correction studied above must not be expected to apply in extreine cases. It is advisable for the studeut to distinguish between TIL] CHARLES' LAW 19 such approximate laws as those of Charles and Boyle, and laws which are accurate so far as the most delicate measurements test them, such as the law of Conservation of Mass, and the laws of Combination by Weight. can 7. 203 c.c. of hydrogen wore moasurel at a temperaturo of 20° C.

Simultaneous Corrections for Temperature and Pressure --The two corrections for temperature and pressure can be applied as in the following example :- 1000 c.c. of hydrogen are measured at 100° C. and 700 nim. pressure. What would be the volume at 0° C. and 760 mm. ? 1000 c.c. at 100% and 700 mm. = 1000 x 768 at 100° C. and 760 mm. = 1000 x 788 x 373 at 0° C. and 760 mm. = 674 c.c. The nature of the relations between pressure, temperature, and volume for a fixed quantity of gas can be expressed by PV = constant X T, or, as it is generally written, PV = KT. This expression comprises the laws of Boyle and Gny-Lussac, as may be seen by noting that (i.) If T is constant, then RT is constant and PV constant. प्रालि IL 167-b 20 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAP. (ü.) If P is constant, then V = constant x T, or V is proportional to the absolute temperature. It may further be deduced that (ii.) If V is constant, P = constant x T, or P is proportional to the absolute temperature. These corrections are so often to be applied later that only a few exercises in them are given in this chapter. Normal Temperature and Pressure. For the comparison of different volumes of gas, measured at various temperatures and pressures, it is convenient to adopt as standards, 0º C. and 760 mm. These are called normal temperature and pressure (N.T.P.). 11. A gas measured 302.4 0.C. at 17.6° C. and 731 mm. pressure. What is its volume at N.T.P. ? 12. For a given gas, P = 3.2 atmospheres, V = 22-4 litros, T = 291° absolute. What is P whon V = 100 litres and the temperature is 0° C.? 13. Of two samples of hydrogen, one has a volume of 251.3 C.C. at 12° C. and 171 mm., and the other 220 c.o. at 17° and 197 mm. Which contains the greater amount of matter? Partial Pressures and Vapour Pressure.--If a mixture of gases has a total pressure P, then P is the sum of a series of "partial pressures," Pi + Pa + P3 + ... etc. (Dalton's law). Each of these values represents the pressure which would be exerted by a single constituent gas occupying the same volume at the same temperature. For example, if a volume of air has a pressure of 7600 mm., made up of the following partial pressures :- Nitrogen 587.0 mm. Oxygen 157-6 Water vapour... 8.0 Argon... 7:1 Carbon dioxide 0:3 ... ... . . > PARTIAL PRESSURES 21 then if all the oxygen, for instance, were removed without change of volume the total pressure would be 760:0 - 1576 = 602.4 mm. If the water vapour were removed instead of the oxygen the pressure would be 752.0 mm. It is then evident from Boyle's Law that if the pressure had been kept at 7600 mm, while the water was removed the volume would have decreased to 76% of its original amount. The application of this principle is important when a gas has been measured over water because in such a case the volume is that of a mixture of the gas and water vapour. The partial pressure of water vapour in a gas in contact with water is independent of the total pressure of the gas and varies only with the temperature. If a little water is introduced into the vacuum at the top of a barometer tube at 15° C. the height of the mercury column will be reduced by 12.7 mm., unless all the water has previously been converted into vapour. The addition of a small but sufficient quantity of water to a dry gas measured at, say, 760:0 inm., will cause a similar rise in the pressure of the gas to 772:7 mm, if the volume remains constant. Consequently a given volume of gas at 760.0 mm. and 15° contains as much of the dry gas as would exist in the same volume at a pressure of 7473 mm. (For the values of the vapour pressure of water at various temperatures see p. 146.) EXAMPLE.--79-3 c.c. of air are measured over water at 11° and 753 mm. What would be the volume dry at N.T.P.? The vapour pressure of water at 11° is 10 mm. The pressure of dry air at 11° is 753 - 10 = 743 mm. Therefore at N.T.P. the volume is 79.3 x 748 3/4 = 74.5 c.c. If the water contains much dissolved matter its vapour pressure will usually differ considerably from that of pure water, and must be known exactly before this correction can be made.
22 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION (CHLAP. III, Note.—It is a common practice to say that 100 volumes of air (free from carbon dioxide and water vapour) contain 79 volumes of nitrogen and argon, and 21 volumnes of oxygen. This is a conventional way of saying that 100 volumes of air are formed by mixing these gases in the proportions given, although each gas is spread uniformly through the mixture, so that the volume of each gas is 100 C.C. The proportions of each are better expressed as percentage pressures, or as partial pressures, of the whole. 14. A mixture of equal volumes of dry oxygon and nitrogon is collected over water at 10° C. and 730.2 m.

CHAPTER IV DENSITY.-AVOGADRO'S HYPOTIESIS AND THE USE OF GASEOUS DENSITIES FOR MOLECULAR WEIGHT DETERMINATIONS The Densities of Solids and Liquids.- The mass of unit volume of a substance is called its density. In the metric system of units this is the number of grams in 1 cubic centimetre, and since 1 c.c. of water at 4° C. weighs 1 gram, water las at this temperature a density of unity. The volumes and densities of all substances are affected to a greater or less extent by changes of pressure and temperature, so that any statement of a density must comprise a statement of the conditions under which it was determined. A large change in pressure is necessary to produce an appreciable change in the density of a solid or liquid, so that the effect of pressure changes is usually negligible. It is otherwise with the changes brought about by change of temperature, so that in most calculations dealing with density (e.g. determination of refractivities) the temperature of the determination must be stated. Relative Densities.--The ratio Weight of 1 c.c. of substance at ° Weight of 1 c.c. of water at t, is termed the relative density of the substance at tº come pared with the density of water at t, and is often found 24 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COHAP. more convenient than the absolute density as defined above. It is sometimes called the specific gravity of the substance under the stated conditions of temperature, and is written, sp. gr. t°/1, , De, or d tº/t,. For mercury DTS 13.559, i.e. 1 c.c. of mercury at 15° weighs 13.559 times as much as 1 c.c. of water at 4°, Now, since 1 c.c. of water at 15° weighs 0-99913 gram (p. 146), then for mercury 13.559 1152 = 13-572. 0-99913 15° 1. A calibration mark is to bo made on the neck of a flask to indicate a content of 250 c.o.

A vessel for measuring an exact volume of a gas is filled with mercury, the whole being at 15° 0. The mercury is then run out and its wcight found to be 1347.82 grams. The density of mercury at 15° being 13.5590, what is the capacity of the vessel at 15°, exprossed in c.c. ? 3. The following are determinations of the density of acetic acid made by various observers :- Oudeinans d 15°/4° = 1.0553 Perkin = 1.0568 d 15°/15° = 1.05704 Rainsay d 20°/4° 1.0491 de Visser d 16.6°/4° = 1.05315 Jones d 16.5°/4° = 1:0534 A rocont determination (Bousfield and Lowry, J.C.S., 1911, 1439) gives d 18°/4° = 1.05148 and d 20°/4° = 1.04922. From the latter figures calculate the coefficient of expansion of acetic acid, and apply to the older figuros, constructing a tablo bringing all to 18°/4° so as to indicate the degreo of concordance of the whole series.

Given that tho spocifio gravity :f alcohol at 15° is 0.7947 referred to water at 15°, and that the specifio gravity of & mixture containing 50 por cent. by weight of alcohol is 0.9188 at the same temperature, find to the nearost c.c. the contraction in volume which takes place when a litre of alcohol is added to an equal weight of water at 15°. Application of Densities in Weighing. It is a wellknown physical principle that when a substance is Teighed in a fluid (liquid or gas) the apparent weight is less than the true weight by the weight of the fluid displaced. The true weight of a body can thereforo lo determined directly only by weighing in vacuo, against weights which have been standardized in vacuo. It is customary, however, when the true weight is required, to obtain it by applying a correction for the buoyancy of air to the ordinary weighings. 5. If two weights, each 50.0000 grams, ono of platinum (density 21:5) and the other of brass (density 8:5) were placed upon the opposite pans of a balance, what would be the difforence betwcen thoir apparent weights in air (a) at 0° C., (6) at 20° C.? (The weight of a litro of air at O' is 1.29 gram, at 20° 1.20 gram.) 6. 131.851 is the apparent weight in air of a quantity of silver chlorido, the weights used being made of platinum and standardized in vacuo. What is the true woight of the silver chloride ? (The density of silver chlorido is 5.55, and of platinum 21.5. The weight of a litre of air may be taken as 1.20 gram.) The Densities of Gases.--The weight of 1 c.c. of hydrogen at N.T.P. is 0.0000899 gram, of oxygen 0:00143, Other gases likewise give inconveniently small numbers, so for this and other reasons the densities of gases are expressed in other units than those used for solids and liquids. Since hydrogen is the lightest of all known 26 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION (CNAP. gases, its density has been taken as the standard, i.e. 1, so that Any (or Day or dog) = 15.90 indicates that oxygen (02) has a density 15.90 times as great as the density of hydrogen.* Obviously what has been said about the necessity for paying attention to the effect of changes of temperature and pressure on the densities of solids and liquids applies with much greater force to gases, since gases are subject to much greater changes in voluine than are solids and liquids, under similar changes of tenperature and pressure. The density of a gas is therefore expressed as the ratio The weight of a given volume at normal tenporature and pressuro The weight of the samo volume of hydrogen at normal ternp. and press. The most accurate determinations of the weight of a litre of hydrogen at N.T.P. give 0.0899 gram, but the number 0:0900 is usually sufficiently accurate, the error thus introduced being only 1 part in 899, or about 0:1 per cent. This number 0 0900 is usually written 0:09, but it is not forgotten that its degree of accuracy is much greater than would appear from this method of express. ing it. 7. Calculate the density of helium, compared with lydrogen as unity, from the following data given by Ramsay, Collio, and Travers (J.C.S., 1895, 67, 694): Volume of bulb 33-023 33.023 33.023 c.c.

At what temperature will carbon dioxide bave the same density as air has at 0° C., the pressure being the same in each caso? Tho density at 0°C. of carbon dioxido= 21.8, of air=14.4. The Vapour Densities of Solid and Liquid Substances.-- The densities of vapours are expressed in the same way as those of gases, i.e. with hydrogen as unity. The expression Weight of a given volume of vapour at N.T.P. Weight of the same volume of hydrogen at N.T.P. is in this case not a statement of possible fact, because the vapour cannot exist at N.T.P. It is possible, however, to calculate what the numerator would be if the vapour diil not condense and if it followed Boyle's and Charles' laws when brought to N.T.P. The relative densities of a large number of vapours have been determined in this way because the values obtained have considerable theoretical significance, as will be shown in the next section. In the experimental inethods used (sce text-book), the volume of the vapour of a given weight of substance is measured, or an equivalent amount of air is displaced by the vapour, cooled, and measured at ordinary temperatures over water.

What is the vapour density of the substance ? Avogadro's Hypothesis and the Use of Gaseous Densities for Molecular Weight Determinations. The densities of gases have a special significance for the chemist owing to the simple volume relationships of gases in chemical reactions. The law of gaseous volumes (Gay-Lussac) states 18.) AVOGADRO'S HYPOTHESIS 29 that "When gases react they do so in simple proportions by volume, and the volume of any gaseous product is also simply related to the volumes of the reacting gases, if all the volumes are measured under the same conditions of temperature and pressure.' This law is not exact, for the most carefully determined combining volume ratios of gases are not precisely expressible by whole numbers but by numbers which differ slightly from whole numbers. The differences though small are greater than the possible error of these measurements, so that the law although of great importance is not rigorously accurate like the laws of chemical combination by weight. Gay-Lussac's law suggests, however, some hypothesis as to the structure of a gas, and the uniformity of the volume-temperature and volumepressure relationships adds force to the suggestion, which is in fact met by the hypothesis of Avogadro. This states that equal volumes of all gases measured under the same conditions of temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules.* It has received support from the kinetic theory, which is based ou the assumptions that matter is molecular in structure and that the molecules while perfectly elastic, obey the ordinary laws of kinetics of such masses of substances as can be experimentally investigated. The student who wishes to make the applications of the molecular and atomic theories in the following chapters must master the arguments of those theories either in the classroom or from his text-book. They are restated here in an epitomized form at the beginning of each chapter in order to indicate those portions of the text-book which are to be consulted for the description of experimental proofs and for fuller theoretical treatment. . The molecule is the smallest part of a substance capable of Independent existence.
30 EXERCISES IN CIIEMICAL CALCULATION CONAP. From Avogadro's hypothesis it follows that a gas or vapour density determination leads to the molecular weight, thusmass of a given volume of gas The density mass of the same volume of hydrogen 'mass of m molecules of the gas mass of n molecules of hydrogen By Avogadro's hypothesis m = n, so the ratio becomes Mass of 1 molecule of gas Mass of 1 molecule of hydrogen The denominator of the fraction is equal to 2 (or more exactly 2016) since the molecule of hydrogen contains in all probability two atoms, and the weight of cach atom is taken as unity (or more exactly 1.008). Thus the relative density of a gas or vapour is equal to half of its molecular weight, and the determination of vapour densities is valuable not only for substances which are gaseous at ordinary temperatures but for all substances which can be vapourized at temperatures where measurements are possible.

Show by means of these data that the molecular weight of wator is approximately 18. (London Hons. Int)., 1909.) An important relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and its molecular weight is established as follows: Since 1 litre of hydrogen at N.T.P. weighs 0:09 gram 2016 then = 22:4 litres of hydrogen at N.T.P. weigh 0.09 2:016 grams and 224 litres at N.T.P. of a gas of density A weigh 2.016 XA grams i.e. M grams, where M is the molecular weight of the substance. Hence the molecular weight in grams, or the gram-molecular weight of any gas, occupies 22:4 litres at 0° C. and 760 mm. This relationship may be used in all cases unless a high degree of accuracy is required. Note that it depends on Avogulro's hypothesis, which, as already stated, is not quite exact. Hence it is open to just the same small errors as that hypothesis. The extent of the variation is shown by the following values of the volume occupied by the gram-molecular weights of several gases (calculated from exact atomic weights, molecular weights and densities) at N.T.P. :- Hydrogen 22:43 litres Carbon dioxide 22:26 litres Oxygen 22:39 Chlorine 22:05 Carbon monoxido 22:39 Methane 22:44 9) 18.

CHAPTER V ATOMIC WEIGHTS Deduction of Approximate Atomic Weights from Molecalar Weights.—The atom being the sinallest amount of an element ever present in a molecule of any of its compounds, the atomic weight is the smallest weight of an element ever present in the molecular weight of any of its compounds. Thus the determination of the atomic weight of an element depends prinarily upon & knowledge of the molecular weights of as many of its compounds as possible. If the weight of an atom of hydrogen be taken as unity a series of approximate molecular weights, expressed in terms of this unit, is obtained by doubling the vapour densities (see Chapter IV) of the volatile compounds of the element under consideration.

ATOMIC WEIGHTS 33 The first column shows the compound, the second its vapour density; the third is the molecular weight deduced from the second by multiplication by 2; the fourth is the percentage of nitrogen in the compound as determined by gravimetric analysis independently of any theory; the fifth is the weight of nitrogen in the molecular weight of the compound, determined from the preceding two columns. It is evident that 14 is not only the least weight of nitrogen present in the molecular weight of any compound, but also that the compounds containing more than this have exactly 2 x 14 or 3 x 14, i.e. 2 or 3 atoms respectively present in the molecule. The atomic weight of nitrogen is thus 14. In a similar way the atomic weights of oxygen and carbon are founi: Cias of vapor density. Molecular weight.

If a symbol is used to represent an atom of an element, e.g. H for hydrogen, 0 for oxygen, N for nitrogen, C for carbon, then formulæ are deduced for the compounds thus- Nitrous oxide contains 28 parts or 2 atoms of nitrogen 34. EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COHAP. and 16 parts or 1 atom of oxygen. Its formula is therefore written N20. Nitric oxide is NO, water is H20, ozone is 0g, cyanogen is C,N2, carbon monoxide is CO, carbon dioxide is CO2, ammonia is NH3, and hydrazoic acid is HN3 Against the above as a general method of obtaining atomic weights, the following objections may be adyanced : (1) Avogadro's hypothesis is not exactly true; hence the molecular weights obtained by its use are only approximate. (2) The determination of vapour densities is easy when the object is an approximate value, but extraordinarily difficult when an exact value is required. (3) Few volatile compounds of the metals are known. For these reasons, such atomic weights as can be obtained are approximate; it is only quite recently that D. Berthelot, Guye, and otliers have eliminated the two sources of error (1) and (2) so as to obtain accurate atomic weights for a few elements. Nevertheless, the knowledge of the approximate value has been of service for many years as an aid to the choice of an exact atomic weight. Exact Atomic Weights.--Since the time of Berzelius chemical analysis has indicated with considerable accuracy the equivalent weights of elements, or the ratios by weight in which they combine (Chapter II.). It is usually from these that the exact atomic weights are obtained The accurate combining ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in water is 2.016: 16.00, i.e. their atomic weights are in the ratio 1.008: 16.00, since the formula of water is H,O (see above). It has recently been decided by the International Committee on Atomic Weights to fix 0 = 16 exactly as the standard. This means that in calculations with any ATOMIC WEIGHTS 35 pretence to accuracy it is essential to use the value 1.008 for the atomic weight of hydrogen. If the approximate number 1 is used, as was the case in the early portion of this chapter, it must be remembered that an error of nearly 1 per cent. is thereby introduced. From the equivalent of any other element M its atomic weight may be deduced as follows. The element may combine with oxygen to form some of the oxides M20 MO M Og MO, MOS MO, M20MO, The atomic weight, A, of the element combines with the following weights of oxygen respectively: 8 8 x 2 8x3 8x4 8 x 5 8 x 6 8 X-7 8x8 Hence the equivalent of the element, i.e. the amount which combines with 8 parts by weight of oxygen, is- A А A A л A А A 2 3 5 6 7 8 If these oxides are assumed to be formed from water by the displacement of the hydrogen atoms by atoms of M, then in the eight compounds one atom of metal has replaced the following number of atoms of hydrogen (cf. formulæ), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. This number is the valency of the element. (Sce text-book for fuller discussion of this all-important subject.) It coincides with AA the denominator in the line A, 9.1. etc. atomic weight Hence Equivalent valency i.e. Atomic weight valency x equivalent. Since the valency is a simple whole number (from 1 to 8), and the equivalent is accurately known, the atomic weight is chosen by trial as that number which is nearest the approximate one as determined above, when in the formula is substituted for valency the numbers 1, 2, 3 ... 8 in turn, 36 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION Contap. EXAMPLE.-A metallic chloride was found to contain 25.60 per cent. of chlorine. What would be the atomic weight of the metal on the supposition that it was (a) a diad, (6) a triad ? (Cl = 35:46.) (Inter. B.Sc., Manc.) “Diad" and "triad” are terms sometimes used for divalent and trivalent elements respectively. 25.60 of chlorine unite with 100 - 25.60 of metal re. 74.40 of metal 35-46 .: 74.40 x of metal unite with 35-46 of chlorine 25.60 i.e. 103.06 of metal unite with 35:46 of chlorine, or replace 1-008 of hydrogen in hydrochloric acid. Hence since atomic weight = equivalent X valency then the atomic weight = (a) 103:06 x 2 = 2061 or () 103:06 x 3 = 309 2 Approximate Atomic Weights obtained by the Use of Dulong and Petit's Generalization. Only a few elements have a sufficient number of volatile compounds for the determination of their approximate atomic weights from vapour density observations. For most elements an independent rule or generalization enunciated by Dulong and Petit may be applied. This states that the product of the atomic weight and the specific heat (measured at ordinary temperatures) of a solid or liquid element is a constant, approximately 6:4. This generalization holds particularly for those elements which form the fewest volatile compounds, and whose atomic weights are thus least easy to determine by the previous method. The notable exceptions to Dulong and Petit's generalization are beryllium (glucinum), boron, carbon, and silicon, whose atomic weights have been determined by the previous method. It is especially important to note that the value of the atomic weight obtained from the equation- Atomic weight x specific heat = 6:4 C 1 ATOMIC WEIGHTS 37 X 8 is only very approximate, so that the exact number must be obtained from the equation- Atomic weight = valency x equivalent EXAMPLE,A metallic oxide was found to contain 52.94 per cent of the metal and 47:06 of oxygen. A rapid determination of the specific heat of the metal gavo 0.25. What is the exact atomic weight of the metal (0 = 16), and what is the formula of the oxide ? 52.94 of inctal combine with 47.06 of oxygen 52.94 8 47.06 52.91 i.e. equivalent of metal X 8 17.00 = 9:00 Also, froiu Dulong aud Petit's gencralization- Atomic weight x 0.25 = 6:4 approximately or, Atomic weight = 25:6 approximately. Now, atomic weight = valency x 9:00, and adopting values for the valency, in turn, of 1, 2, 3, and so on- Atomic weight either = 1 x 9.00 9.00 2 x 9:00 18:00 3 x 9:00 27.00 4 x 9:00 = 36.00; and so on. Since 27.00 is nearest the approximate number 23•6, the exact atomic weight is 27:00, the valency is 3, and the formula for the oxide is M,03. For atomic weiglits required in the following examples, see p. 147. 71. By tho action of hydrochloric acid on 0.1635 gram of a motal, 56 0.c. of hydrogon measured at N.T.P. were obtained.

What is the equivalent weight of the element and what is its probable atomic weight? (1st Yoar Hons., Manc.) In many cases the formula of a compound is established, and the exact atomic weight of an element in it is determined by observation of some chemical change which the compound undergoes. The atomic weights of the other elements present must be known. EXAMPLE.--Ammonium aluin (NH4)2Al2(SO4)4.24H20, on heating decomposes so that all the constituents except alumina are volatilized. Mallet (Phil. Trans., 1880) found that 8.2144 grams of the alum gave 0.9258 gram of alumina. The atomic weight of aluminium is deduced from these figures thus- (NH4)2Al2(SO4)4.241,0 produces Al2Og :: 852-75 + 2x of alum produce 48.00 + 2x of alumina, where x is the atomic weight of aluminiumn. 852-75 + 2x 8.2144 48.00 + 20 0.9258 whence X = 27.11. 11.

CHAPTER VI PERCENTAGE COMPOSITIONS FROM FORMULA AND FORMULÆ FROM PERCENTAGE COMPOSITIONS Deduction of Percentage Compositions from Formulæ using Atomic Weights.-One of the consequences of the atomic theory is the representation of chemical compounds by means of formule composel of symbols of the elements, A knowledge of atomic weights enables the proportions (by weight) of the elements to be deduced from these formula. Thus H20, the formula for water, represents a compound containing 2.016 parts of hydrogen to 16.00 parts of oxygen by weight, or 88.8 per cent. of oxygen and 11.2 per cent. of hydrogen. For convenience the proportions are generally expressed iu percentages, which are calculated by simple proportion, The composition of potassium ferricyaniile, [KgFe(CN).), for instance, is deduced as follows: Weight of molecule = sum of weights of the atoms in it (3 x 39) +56+(6 x 12) + (6 x 14) = 329 These 329 parts of KgFe(CN), contain 3 x 39 parts of potassium, so that 3 x 39 Percentage of potassium - x 100 = 35.6 329 44 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAP. Similarly- 56 Percentage of iron = X 100 17.0 329 6 x 12 Percentage of carbon = X 100 = 21.9 329 6 x 14 Percentage of nitrogen x 100 = 25.5 329 It has been shown in Chapter II., Example 9, that Berzelius represented copper sulphate as a compound of copper oxide and sulphuric anhydride. This method of resolving the formulæ of complex compounds into simpler molecules is often used to indicate the chemical character more clearly, e.g.-- Red lead, PW30s, is 2P0, PL02. Potassium hydrogen sulphate, KIISOs, is K,SO4.H_SO. [i.c. 2KHSO4]. Malachite, Cu,H,C'05, is Cu(Oll).CnC03, or 2010. CO2.H20. Mica, KA1,H.Sig012 (KA1311. (SiO4)3], is K20,3A1203. 211,0.6SiO2. Boracite, My7C1,B16030, is Mg(1,2 M43BO15, or MgCla. 6Mg0.8B208. In each of these cases there is a choice of the terms in which the percentage composition may be expressed. It is, of course, also possible to represent formulic, and to express percentage compositions in terms of the radicles present. Thus malachite (above) may be written Cu(OH)2CO3, and its composition may be expressed as percentages of Cu, OH, and COg. EXAMPLES.

46 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAT. Deduction of Formulæ from Percentage Composition, using Atomic Weights.--The method of constructing a formula to correspond with a given percentage composition may be deduced by considering a definite case. D. Berthelot obtained the following figures on analyzing a compound containing mercury, nitrogen, and iodine Mercury = 73.77 Nitrogen = 2:53 Iodine = 23.56 These quantities may each be resolved into two factors, one being the atomic weight of the clement under consideration, thus- [The fractional numbers Mercury =7377=0:369 x 200 are found by dividing Nitrogen = 2:53 = 0.181 x 14 the percentage of each Iodine = 23.56= 0.185 x 127 element by its atomic weight.] The numbers 0.369, 0·181, and 0.185, are approximately in the ratio of the numbers of atoms present; they must be transformed into simple whole numbers, since fractions of atoms are never found in chemical compounds. They are clearly very nearly as 2:1:1, and the simplest, or empirical, formula of the compound is Hy2NI.* 100 po * A more precise proof runs as follows: If the elements A, B, O, form a compound A,B,Cr, and if the atomic weights of A, B, and o are a, b, and c, then the total weight of the molecule of the compound is pa + ab + rc. The percentage of A pa + ab + TC The percentage of B pa + ab + To 100 TC The percentage of C pa + 2b + rc The problem is, to determine p, , and , given the percentages of the clements, and a, b, and Co 100 qb VI.) PERCENTAGE COMPOSITIONS 47 It is not possible, of course, to decide without further information between this formula and some simple multiple of it, e.g. Hg.N,1, or HgNg1g. If the analysis is expressed in percentages of simpler compounds the process is similare.g. SiO2 = 47.0 = 0·78 X 60 (SiO2 = 28 + 32 = 60) Mg0= 31:3 = 0.78 x 40 (Mgo = 24 + 16 = 40) H20 = 21.2 = 1.18 x 18 (H2O = 2 + 16 = 18) 99.5 per cent. 0:78:0.78:1:18 = 2:2:3 very nearly, and the for mula is 2Mg0.2Si0,3H20, or 2MgSiO3.31,0. Since the usual analytical data for determining the composition of a compound are less accurate than the data from which the atomic weights are obtained, the proportions deduced are rarely quite exact. For this reason approximate atomic weights may be used in deducing formulac from analytical datil. The procedure to be followed in determining the formula of a body from its percentage composition is therefore (1) Divide each percentage by the corresponding atomic (or group) weight to obtain the ratio of the number of atoms (or groups) present. 100 pa rc Now per cent. of A: per cent. of B: per cent. of C 10) gb 100 TC pa + b + ro'pa + b + ro'pa + ab + ro pa qნ per cont. of A. per cent. of B por cent. of O Whence P:9:7 b Hence the proportion of the numbers of atoms presout (P:9:7) is obtained by dividing cach percentage by the corresponding atomio weight.

[N.B.-It is necessary to nssume that silicon chlorid, contains only one atom of silicon.] Analysis of Minerals.-In certain minerals one element may often replace another to any extent without altering the crystalline form of the mineral. These so-called 180- morphous relationships are expressed by writing the symbols of both elements and enclosing them in a square bracket, e.g. olivine is (Mg, Fe]z.SiO4, or 2[Mg, Fe]0.SiO2, indicating that the mineral is of the type Mg SiO with more or less of the Mg replaced by Fe. It is of course impossible to calculate a percentage composition for olivine unless the proportions of magnesium and iron are definitely stated. The deduction of formule for such minerals is carried out on the lines of the following determination for dolomite: Cao 31.37 = 0.560 X 56 MyO 21.23 0.525 x 40 CO, 47.67 = 1.083 X 44 Here the relations between the numbers are not simple, . ...

As the total amount of metal found in a mineral is usually represented in the percentage composition by the equivalent quantity of its oxide, and as the amount of a halogen is generally expressed as the percentage of the element, it is clear that the composition as put in this way will not be a true percentage composition since the sum will exceed 100 by the weight of oxygen wrongly attributed to the metal.

CHAPTER VII THE CALCULATION OF REACTING QUANTITIES FROM EQUATIONS The construction of chemical formula in accordance with the atomic and molecular hypotheses leads to the representation of chemical reactions by means of equations. For example- Zu + H2SO4 ZnSO4 + H, represents the reaction between zinc and sulphuric acid under certain conditions, The quantities of the four substances concerned in the reaction are calculated from the equation by the use of a table of atomic weights. It follows that 65-37 grams of zinc will react with 98.086 grams of sulphuric acid to produce 2.016 grams of hydrogen and 161:44 grams of zinc sulphate (anhydrous).* If it were necessary to determine the weight of zinc which could be dissolved in exactly 7 kilograms of 10.00 per cent. sulphuric acid the process would be- 7000 grams of 10 per cent. acid contain 700 grams hydrogen sulphate; 98.086 grams hydrogen sulphato require 65.37 grams zinc ; (froin the equation) 65.37 x 700 :: 700 grams hydrogen sulphate require 98086 = 466.5 grams zinc. The student should repeat this calculation, using • These figures should be chockad.

How much sodium chloride was present in the solution ? NaCl + AgNO3 = NaNO3 + Agci 58.46 143.34 i.e. 143-34 grams of silver chloride result from 58:46 grams of sodium chloride; 58.46 x 0.2543 .: 0-2543 gram of silver chloride results froin 113:34 = 0.1037 gram of sodium chloride.

CHAPTER VIII THE KEAQTING VOLUMES OF GASES-GAS ANALYSIS TUE equation 200 + 02 = 2CO, indicates that two molecules of carbon monoxide react with one molecule of oxygen to produce two molecules of carbon dioxide. Hence 2n molecules of carbon monoxide react with n molecules of oxygen to produce 2n molecules of carbon dioxide. These 2n molecules of carbon monoxide will occupy twice the volume of n molecules of oxygen and the same volumo as the 2n molecules of carbon dioxide, always assuming that the three gases arc measured under the same conditions of temperature and pressure (Avogadro's hypothesis). Thus a direct inspection of the equation enables the statement to be made that 2 volumes of carbon monoxide react with 1 volume of oxygen to produce 2 volumes of carbon dioxide. By simple proportion the reacting quantities can be calculated for any given amount of any one roagent. Thus- (A) 150 volumes of carbon monoxide will, on complete combustion, combine with 75 volumes of oxygen, and produce 150 volumes of carbon dioxide, the three measurements being all made at the same temperature and pressure. (B) A mixture of 50 volumes of carbon monoxide and 50 volumes of oxygen evidently contains an excess of oxygen beyond that required for complete combustion of the carbon monoxide. If, then, the mixture be inflamed, OHAP, VIII.] REAOTING VOLUMES OF GASES 71 the 50 volumes of carbon monoxide will unite with 25 volumes of oxygen, producing 50 volumes of carbon dioxide; with this will be mixed the 25 volumes of oxygen in excess of that required for complete combustion.

When dealing with a gaseous mixture whose constituents are known, the relative amounts of the latter may be deterrnined by gas-volumetric processes. EXAMPLE.When 100 c.c. of a mixture of nitrous and nitric oxides were mixed with 200 c.c. of hydrogen and fired in a eudiometer, 80 c.c. of nitrogen remained. What was the composition of the mixture ? (Inter. B.Sc., Manc.) The two equations are written for the combustion of the two oxides separately. Note that there is sufficient VI.] GAS ANALYSIS 75 hydrogen to decompose completely either oxide if present alone; therefore also to decompose any mixture of the two. Underneath each member of the equation is placed an expression showing the volume of it reacting with or resulting from * C.C. of nitrous oxide or y c.c. of nitric oxide as follows: N,O + Hg = N, + H2O X - 0 2NO + 2H2 = N2 + 211,0 Y Y y 0 2 C + y 100 Y 20+ 80 2 60 с.c. of nitrous oxide 40 c.c. of uitric oxide Then and wlience A similar calculation to the above is made in the analysis of nixtures of methane, hydrogen, and nitrogen by explosion with a measured excess of oxygen. After cooling to the original temperature the contraction is noted. The carbon dioxide is then absorbed by a solution of potassium hydroxide, and its amount thus found. Corrections for changes in temperature and pressure and for the presence of varying amounts of water vapour were formerly required in analyses of this kind, but at the present tine the best forms of apparatus are arranged to keep a constant temperature throughout the analysis, and the measurement is either that of volume at constant pressure or, what is almost the same, pressure at constant volume. Unless all the measurements are those of dry gases (an operation of some difficulty), it is usual to keep the walls of the measuring tube moist with water or dilute sulphuric acid. In this way, since the temperature does not vary, a constant pressure of aqneous vapour is ensured for all the 76 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COHAP. measurements. If these are volumes at, say, 14° C. and 760 mm., then the same readings would represent quantities of dry gas at 14º and 748 mn., i.e. at a constant temperature and pressure. (The vapour pressure of water or dilute sulphuric acid at 14° is approximately 12 mm.) If the measurements are pressures at, say, 14° C. and at constant volume, the apparatus is so constructed that the readings express the difference in pressure between the moist gas and saturated aqueous vapour at the same temperature contained in the other limb of a U-tube manometer. This difference is obviously the partial pressure of the dry gas, so that the effect of the water vapour is automatically eliminated. To return to the calculation of the analysis, the example may be taken- Gas (hydrogen + methane + nitrogen)... 83.9 volumes 4845 Mixture after explosion 349.9 Mixture after treatnient with KOTI 322:1 Here the contraction = 484.5 3439 = 134.6 And the carbon dioxide = 349.9 - 322:1 = 27-8 Let there be x volumes of hydrogen and y volumes of methane in the original 83-9 volumes of gas. Now 211, + 0.2 = 211,0 Gas + oxygen C 2 0 2 The water produced has no effect on the volume measurement. Since z volumes of hydrogen and z volumes of oxygen disappear from the gas, the presence of volumes of hydrogen accounts for a contraction or explosion of 30 volumes. 2 vm.)

The principles and methods of volumetric analysis can only be studied in the laboratory. The following sections, therefore, contain only an outline of the nomenclature, and illustrations of the methods which should be used in calculation. Normal Solutions of Acid and Alkali. A normal golution of an acid contains 1 gram-equivalent (i.e. 1.008 gram) of hydrogen replaceable by a metal, per litre. For example, normal hydrochloric acid contains (1.008 + 35:46) grams of HCl per litre. Normal sulphuric acid contains (2:016 + 32:07 + 64:00) grams of H2SO4 per litre, because the gram-molecular weight of sulphuric acid (2.016 + 32:07 + 04:00 giams) contains 2 gram-atons of hydrogen. A normal solution of an alkali is exactly equivalent to a normal solution of an acid. For example, since NaOH 33.00 + 16.00 + 1.008 + HOI NaCl + H2O 1.008 + 35:46 40-01 36:47 then normal caustic soda solution contains 40-01 grams of NaOH per litre, or 23.00 grams, i.e. the equivalent, of Na. Normal baryta solution contains 3(137.37 + 32:00 + 2.016) grams of Ba(OH), because 1 gram-molecule of Ba(OH), is equivalent to 2 gram-molecules of HCI- Ba(OH)2 + 2HCl = BaCl2 + 2H20 CHAP. IX.) VOLUMETRIC ANALYSIS 83 In certain reactions salts of weak acids (e.g. sodium carbonate, Na,C03, and borax, NagB401) behave as alkalies, and neutralize stronger acids, e.g.-- NazC0g + 2HCl = 2NaCl + H2O + CO2 The above definition of a normal solution of an alkali still holds in such cases, e.g. normal sodium carbonate contains }(46.00 + 12:00 + 48:00) = 53.00 grams of the anhydrous salt per litre. Normal Solutions of Oxidizing Agents. -A normal solution of an oxidizing agent, such as potassium permanganato or potassium bichromate, contains in 1 litre 1 gram-equivalent of oxygen, available for oxidation. Since exactly 16 grams of oxygeu unite with or oxidize 2.016 grams of hydrogen or their equivalent of other substance, then the normal solution contains exactly 8 grams of oxygen available for oxidation. A typical oxidation by potassium permanganate in the presence of sulphuric acid is represented by-- 2KMnO4 + 4H2SO4 + 511,C20. = 2KIISO4 + 2MnSO, + 8H2O + 10CO, The weight of permanganate in grams is 2(39:10 + 54.93 + 64:00) = 316.06. The number 316 is used as being more accurate than the experimental observations themselves. It will be observed on dissecting the equation thus- 2KMnO4 + 4H2SO4 = 2K HSO4 + 2MnSO4 + 37,0 +50 50 + 5C,H,04 = 1000, + 51,0 that only 5 of the 8 atoms of oxygen in the permanganate are available for oxidation. Hence the 316 grams of permanganate contain 80 grams of available oxygen. Thereforo 31:6 grams of permanganate contain 8 grams of available oxygen, so that for oxidation in the presence of acid a normal solution contains 31.6 grams of potassium permanganate. From equations expressing its oxidizing 84 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION CONTAP. action upon oxalic acid, ferrous salts, etc., the amounts of oxalic acid, ferrous salts, etc., in any given solution may be calculated. Normal Iodine Solution.-Iodine, dissolved in potassium iodide solution, is used for certain estimations. Since iodine is monovalent in the reactions concerned, & normal solution contains 126.92 grams of iodine per litre. Its action is really that of an oxidizing agent, and its estimation depends upon the reaction represented by 2Na2S2O3 + 14 = Na S408 + 2Nal In this reaction 1 molecule of sodium thiosulphate is equivalent to 1 atom of iodine. Therefore normal sodium thiosulphate will contain (46:00 + 64.00 + 48:00) = 158 grams of Na2S20g per litre. It must be noted that this normal solution contains two equivalents of sodium per litre, so that in other reactions it is possible for a solution containing only half the above amount of thiosulphate to be normal. Normal Solutions of Reducing Agents.-Such solutions are those of stannous chloride, titanous chloride, oxalic acid, etc. They are normal when 1 litre of the solution is completely oxidized by the equivalent of oxygen (8 grams), or of chlorine (35:46 grams), e.g. normal 119.0 stannous chloride could be made by dissolving 2 = 59.5 grams of tin in hydrochloric acid and making up to 1 litre. [SnCl2 + Cl, Snci.] Decinormal and Centinormal Solutions, etc.-Normal solutions are, as a rule, too concentrated for convenience. Weaker solutions are then employed, and, if one-tentb Similarly, one 10. normal, are designated decinormal (1).
VOLUMETRIO ANALYSIS 85 hundredth normal (106), half normal and other 2 strengths are used. It is not always convenient to make up solutions which are exactly normal or decinormal, and in such cases, when the concentration of the solution has been determiued, it may be cxpressed by means of a factor, e.g. à 0 997 N. sulphuric acid contains 0 997 x 49:04 grains of sulphuric acid per litre. If a volume of, say, 10:45 C.C. of this solution has been taken, it is equivalent to 10:45 X 0.997 10:42 c.c. of normal acid. EXAMPLES.—A solution of copper sulphate was electrolyzed, producing copper and sulphuric acid. The weight of the copper obtained was 0·1463 gram, and the sulphuric acid produced neutralized 15-62 c.c. of an alkali. What was the normality of the alkali? 1 gram-atom (63.57 grams) of copper is equivalent to 1 gram-molecule of sulphuric acid, which is equivalent to 2000 c.c. of N. alkali. :: 0:1463 gram of copper is equivalent to 2000 X 0.1463 C.C.

CHAPTER X ORGANIC ANALYSIS Empirical Formulæ.-The first step in the full quantitative analysis of a pure organic substance is the determination of the proportions of the constituent elements separately. Carbon and hydrogen are estimated by weighing separately the carbon dioxide and water produced when a weighed quantity of the substance is burnt. Thus 0:1836 gram of a substance produced on combustion 01934 gram of carbon dioxide and 0:0693 gram of water. Since carbon 12 00 dioxide contains of its weight of carbon, the carbon 44:00 present in the original substance was 14 x 0.1934 = 0:05275 gram. Similarly the hydrogen present in the original substance was » x 0.0693 = 0·00770 gram.* Nitrogen is estimated from a measurement of the volume of free nitrogen produced when a weighed amount of the substance is burut, special precautions being taken to ensure that the nitrogen is all liberated as such, Certain classes of nitrogenous substances may be so treated that their nitrogen is converted into ammonia, and estimated by passing into a measured amount of standard a instead of 18 2 1 2.016 . The use of or simply a instead of introduces an error of 9 18.016 8 parts in 1110. This may be neglected, since the analytical figures are liable to much greater errors.
90 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAP. acid solution (Kjeldahl); in other cases the nitrogen may be converted completely into nitric oxide and measured as buch (Lunge's" nitrometer" method). Sulphur is converted into barium sulphate, and weighed as such. The halogens are converted into the corresponding silver halides. In each case the calculation of the percentage composition from the analytical results presents no difficulty that has not been met in carlier chapters; from the percentage composition the empirical' formula is deduced as shown in Chapter VI. In many of the exercises which follow it will be found unnecessary to express the analytical results as percentages, as the following example shows :- A body contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. 0-2427 gram of it gives on combustion 0-3553 gram of carbon dioxide and 0:1461 gram of water. What is its simplest (empirical) formula? In the 0-2427 gram are 0 3553 x 4 = 0.0969 gram of carbon and 0.1461 X } = 0·0162 gram of hydrogen Hence the total burnt, minus the hydrogen, minus the carbon, is the amount of oxygen in the substance, i.e. 0.1296 gram. These are the relative quantities of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen present; hence, by dividing each by the corresponding atomic weight, the relative numbers of atoms are found (Chapter VI.), i.e.- 0.0969 00162 0.1296 = 0.00807 : 0.0162 : 0-0081 12 1 16 1 2 1 Hence the simplest formula is CH,O. . Moleonlar Formulæ.The molecular formula is, of course, either the same as the empirical formula or some x.) ORGANIO ANALYSIS 91 simple multiple of it. Molecular formulæ are deduced by one or other of the following methods for determining molecular weights :- (I.) Measurement of the vapour density of the substance or of some substance made from it by a simple process. Thus acetic acid has the empirical formula CH,0; its vapour density shows a molecular weight approximately 60; hence the molecular forinula is C2H4O2, which is twice the empirical formula. Oxalic acid has the empirical formula CHOZ. It decomposes partially on vaporization, so that a vapour density determination is valueless. But methyl oxalate, by analysis and vapour density determination, is shown to have the molecular formula C2H604, or C2(CH3)204; and since it is known to have been formed from oxalic acid by the replacement of hydrogen (H) by methyl (CH3), the molecular formula of oxalic acid is probably C,H,04, twice the empirical formula. (II.) Depression of freezing point and elevation of boiling point methods (see Chapter XII.). (III.) Special method for an acid. If the basicity of the acid (the number of atoms of hydrogen in the molecule which can be replaced by sodium on treatment with sodium carbonate) is known, then the silver salt is made and the proportion of silver in it determined by igniting in air and weighing the residue. The molecular weight of the acid is then given by-- Weight of silver salt used Weigut of silver produced molecular weight of acid - n + n. 108 n. 108 where n is the basicity. Thus lactic acid has the ewpirical formula CH,0. It % 92 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION (CHAP is monobasic, and its silver salt contains 54:8 per cento silver. Hence 100.0 molecular weight of lactic acid 1 - 108 54:8 108 :: Molecular weight of acid = 90, which corresponds with the formula C3H60s, three times the empirical formula. (IV.) Special method for a base. Organic bases, such, for example, as methylamine, CH3NH2, form salts in the same way as ammonia, so that methylamine forms mcthylamine hydrochloride, CH3NH2.HCl. Then, just as ammonjuin chloride forms an easily prepared double salt- (NII.CI). PtCl4 80 methylamine hydrochloride forms a double salt-- (CHI.NHA. (2).PtCl, Such salts, on ignition, leave a residue of pure platinum. The molecular weight of the base is obtained in a similar way to the determination in the previous example, i.e.- Weight of platinum salt Weight of platinum forined 2 x molecular wt. of basc + 2(1 + 35.5) + 195 + 142 195 Constitutional Formulæ.- When the molecular formula has been determined, other data may enable the constitutional formula to be deduced; for these a text-book on organic chemistry must be consulted.

The ethyl ester of a dibasic acid, to which a normal carbon chain is assigned, has the composition: C = 61.11; 9.26 ; 0 = 29.63 por cent. Whon heatod at 120° with: sodium and a trace of alcohol, this ester is converted into a substanco A of the composition: C = 63.53; H = 8.23; O = 28.24 per cent. From A, when boiled with dilute sul. phuric acid, a second substance B is obtained of the composition: 0= 73.47; H= 10-20; 0 = 16.33 per cent., the oxime of which contains N = 12:39 por cent. What is the probable constitution of B? (B.Sc. Hous., Lond., 1911.) H = CIIAPTER XI TIIERMOCHEMISTRY THERMOCHEMISTRY is the study of the heat effects accompanying chemical reaction. The union or reaction of two or more substances is accompanied by the liberation or absorption of a definite amount of energy, usually in the form of heat. From this circumstance, chemic reactions and compounds are distinguished as exothermie and endothermic. Exothermic reactions are accompanied by evolution, endothermic by absorption, of heat. Exothermic compounds are formed from their elements with evolution, endothernic compounds with absorption, of heat. Units. Quantity of heat is measured in calories, calorio being defined as the amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of water through 1° C.* This unit is inconveniently small for chemical purposes so that it is customary to use tho“ large " calorie which is one thousand times as great as the small calorie, and is the amount of heat required to raise 1 kilogram of water through 1° C. To distinguish between the two units, gram calories are usually written cal.; kilogram calories, Cal. There is also the unit of heat (K) used by Ostwald which is the quantity * This amount is not exactly tho same for all intorvals of one degros. A more precise definition stipulates that the water shall be warmed from 15-5° to 16-50. Variation in the magnitude of the calorie with the particular portion of the temperature scalo which is being considered is too small to enter into ordinary calculation.
100 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALOULATION COHAP. 1 of heat required to raise 1 gram of water from 0° to 100° O., and is very nearly equal to 100 small calories. Ostwald also uses the joule, which is 10,000,000 ergs, 1 and equal to small calories, as the unit of heat. 4:18 Thus 1 calorie = 4:18 joules, and 1 Calorie = 4:18 kilojoules (kj:). Nomenclature.-- When by suitable means a determination has been made of the heat change in a given chemical reaction, the result is represented in a thermochemical equation, e.g.- Zn + 0 = ZnO + 86-4 Cal. i.e. 65.4 grams of zinc combine with 16 of oxygen to form 81'4 grams of zinc oxide, the heat evolution being 86.4 large calories.* The quantity 86-4 is called tho heat of roaction between zinc and oxygen, the heat of combustion of zinc or the heat of formation of zinc oxide. The above equation is often abbreviated to (Zn, 0) = +86-4. Laws.-The basis of thermochemistry is an application of the doctrine of the conservation of energy to chemical phenomena, e.g. Lavoisier and Laplace arrived at the conclusion that the decomposition of a compound into its constituents absorbs exactly the same amount of beat as is evolved during its formation from those constituents. Thus the decomposition of zinc oxide is represented as an endothermic reaction by the thermochemical equation -- ZnO = Zn +0 - 86.4 Cal. 80 that the members of a thermochemical equation may be transposed in the same way as the members of an algebraic equation. • Thermochemical equations are generally reduced to the simplest possible form, the above expression, for instance, being preferred to the more precise chemical equation 2Zn + 0, = 2200. Thus Zo + 0 = ZnO + 86.4 Cal. indicates the total thermal change due to the union of THERMOCHEMISTRY 101 G. H. Hess, in 1840, extended the conception by formulating a law which states that the total heat effect of a chemical action is the same whether the reaction proceeds in one stage or in several, so long as the initial and final states are the saine. For instance- H + Cl = HCl + 22 Cal. If, however, the hydrogen chloride is produced by means of the following processes :- H + Br = HBr + 13.5 Cal. HBr + Cl = HCl + Br + 8.5 Cal, it will be noted that tho suin of these two equations- H + Cl = 1[Cl + 22 Cal. representing the net thermal and chemical effect, is identical with the above. The truth of this law for all cases in which it bas been tested leads to its application in determining the heat evolved in reactions which cannot be conducted under conditions suitable for measurement, For instance, from the data- C+02 = CO2 + 97.0 Cal. CO + 0 = C0, + 68.2 Cal. it is deduced, by subtracting the second equation from the first, that- C+0= CO + 28.8 Cal. Influence of Physical State.--It must be remembered that since heat changes also accompany processes which are not chemical (6.g. melting, boiling), it is necessary to know the conditions under which the reaction has been carried out. The magnitude of the error which inay be 65-4 grams of zino with 16 grams of oxygen. No attempt is made to indicate what part of the heat effect is due to the dissociation of oxygen molecules, and what part is due to the union of zino atoms with oxygen atoms, or the volatilization of the zipo or the condensation of zinc oxide, 102 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION COHAP incurred by neglect of this is illustrated by the following equations : H2+0=H2O (ice) + 69.8 Cal.) difference=1.4 Cal. H2+0=H20 (liquid) +6864 gás at 1000 =9.7 and 760 mm. Hg+0=1,0 ( ) The differences represent respectively the latent heat of fusion and the latent heat of vaporization of the grammolecular weight of water. In thermochemical equations the reagents are assumed to be in the state of aggregation in which they would exist at ordinary temperature and pressure, unless the contrary is stated. Reactions in Aqueous Solution.--The thermal change due to the solution of substances in water must often be known for thermochemical calculations dealing with reactions in solution. A difficulty in dealing with this heat of solution is that it depends on the concentration of the resulting solution, as shown by the following numbers obtained by Thomsen for sulphuric acid dissolved in water :- H2SO4, H,0 6.38 Cal H2SO4, 2H,0 9.42 H2SO4, 311,0 11•14 HI,SO4, 19H2O 16.26 H,SO4, 199H2O 17:06 H2SO4, 799H,0 17.64 H2SO4, 1599H20 17.86 Obviously, if the solution is sufficiently dilute, the heat effect of further dilution is negligible, and the heat of solution of sulphuric acid at great dilution is expressed by the equation- HSO, + ag H2SO4aq + 17.9 Cal ... 2 ... ...
XI.) THERMOCHEMISTRY 103 This is quite different from the following :- H2SO4 + H2O H2S0.4,0 + 6-4 Cal. which refers to the formation of a definite hydrato of sulphuric acid. The symbol aq is a contraction for aqua, and means an indefinitely large amount of water; this is practically the same in thermal result as a moderately large excess of water. It is to be noted that aq may frequently enter into specific reactions besides those concerned with simple dilution, e.g.- K + aq = KOHaq + H + 481 Cal. where the thermal effcct consists of the heat of reaction of potassium with water and the heat of solution of the resulting potassium hydroxide. If the equation is to be used algebraically it should be considered as- K + H,0 + ag = KOHaq + H + 48:1 Cal. EXAMPLE,- Given K + aq = KOHaq + H + 481 K (i.) 12+ 0 = 11,0 + 684 K (ii.)

If a chemical reaction at constant pressure results in the production of gas of different volume from that which was present initially, then work is done by the system if expansion has occurred, or on the system if contraction has occurred. Hence the heat evolution is respectively less or greater than that which would occur had no work been done. The difference is frequently significant, especially in the case of the determination of heats of combustion. In the Berthelot bomb the reaction is performed at constant volume; in some other forms of calorimeter at constant pressure. It is useful, therefore, to be able to transform each value of the thermal effect of a reaction into the other. This is dono as follows: The production of 1 grain-molecule of a gas at constant pressure necessitates the use of pv units of work (see text-book). Now, po = RT, so the work done = RT, which in calories = 2T. Hence the production of n grammolecules of gas involves work done by the gas equal to 2nT calories, where n may be positive or negative or zero. EXAMPLE The combustion of methane at constant pressure- CH4 + 202 = CO2 + 21,0 + 211.93 Cal. at 15° C. (initial and final temperatures) has resulted in the absorption of + 2 x 1 x 288 calories, i.e. + 0.576 Cal., on account of the decrease in volume of 1 gram- 110 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL OALCULATION (ORAP. molecule of gas (the water is assumed to be entirely condensed).

Find the heat of combustion of bonzene vapour at constant volume, given that its heat of combustion at constant pressure is 801.2 Cal. at 120° C. Calorific Power. The calorific power of a substance is the number of units of heat which unit amount of it (1 gram, 1 kilogram, 1 pound, 1 cubic foot, as the case may be) will produce on complete combastion. This term is used rather than “heat of combustion " for combustible substances which are not pure chemical compounds and whose oxidation cannot be represented in a single equation. As water is generally a product of the combustion of such & substance, a distinction is made between the gross calorific power, which incluiles the heat of condensation of the water, and the nett calorific power which corresponds to the formation of water vapour. Calorific Intensity.--The calorific intensity of a reaction is the temperatme attained in it on the assumptions (i.) that the reaction is complete before any heat is lost by radiation from the flame; (ii.) that the specific heats of the products of the reaction are known. The calorific intensity of a reaction, in degrees Centigrade, total heat evolved heat required to raise the products through 1° 0. 23.

CHAPTER XII SOAIE PRINCIPLES OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY THE examples of this chapter and of the previous one cover a great part of physical chemistry. The student who understands his text-book will find himself capable of solving most of them without further explanation; to attempt explanation would involve the writing of a textbook. One point, derived from experience of teaching students, may be mentioned. It is, as a rule, safer and more permanently useful to work from principles than to memorize formulæ. Just as in correcting a gas volume to NT.P., inost experienced chemists seem to remember the principles and apply them as best fit the particular case, so, for example, in deducing a molecular weight from an observation of the depression of a freezing point, most chemists use the principles, but do not remember the formula. The difference is that instead of putting the principles into a formula and translating that to the particular case in point, the direct method is used. A few of the following examples, more especially some of those in the sections on rate of diffusion of gases, solubility of gases, molecular weight determinations and electrochemistry, may be attempted by the junior student. He may choose those obtained from Intermediate B.Sc, papers, and some others.

(Bd. of Ed., Stage I., Inorg., 1910.) 4. If 50 volumes of hydrogen take 85 seconds to diffuse from a vessel, how long would it take 35 volumes of nitrous oxide to do so under the same conditions ? (London Pre. So., Vet., 1905.) 5. Tho relative rates of diffusion of oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen are respectively 0.96, 3.80, and 1.015. What dodaotion may be drawn from those figuros concerning the donsity of nitrogen? (London Inter., Intl., 1908.) 6. Soret found that when chlorine mixed with oxygen, diffused through a small aperture into oxygon, the proportion E 114 EXERCISES IN CHEMICAL CALCULATION [CHAP of the diffused chlorine to that remaining in the Vossel in 45 minutes was reprosented by the number 0.2270; whilst in & similar experiment made with ozonized oxygen the proportion of the diffuscd ozone to that remaining in the vessel in 45 minutes was 0.2708. From these numbers determine the density of ozone (a) with chlorine as unity, and (b) with hydrogen as unity. (London Inter., Veterinary Science, 1909.) 7. If, in Soret's apparatus, 100 c.c. of HCl gas had been mixed with oxygon and 18 c.c. had diffused in half an hour, what molecular weight would yon assign to an acid gas of which 12 cc.

Two vessels, A and B, contaiuing respectively chlorine and a mixture of oxygen with another gas, aro connected by means of a short capillary tube. The mixture contains 10 por cont. of oxygen.
