Solubility is given in parts by weight (of the formula weight) per 100 parts by weight of the solvent (i.e., percent by weight) and at room temperature. Another unit frequently used is grams per 100 mF of solvent (mF per 100 mF for liquids and gases). The symbols of the common mineral acids represent aqueous solutions of these acids.

Although not conunented on by Smith and Metz (1996), the drawings iuFigs. 3.8 and 3.9 might have revealed that some of the students were not entirely famihar with the state symbols. The question and the equation stated explicitly that the reaction takes place in aqueous solution. Nevertheless, these drawings did not make ary reference to the fact that the reaction or the chemical species are in an aqueous medium. 

When interpreting the chemical equation for the reaction between aqueous sodium hydroxide and dilute nitric acid, 20% of students appeared to hold the view that Na+ and NO3" ions (submicroscopic and symbolic representations) had reacted in aqueous solution to produce aqueous sodium nitrate. It was not apparent to these students that the net chemical reaction had only involved removal of H+ and OH in aqueous solution to produce molecules of H2O.

In fact, the symbol Ic should be used, as the molality ionic strength Im can be defined analogously in dilute aqueous solutions, however, values of c and m, and thus also Ic and Im, become identical.) Equation (1.1.21) was later derived theoretically and is called the Debye-Huckel limiting law. It will be discussed in greater detail in Section 1.3.1.

Enthalpies of reaction can also be calculated from individual enthalpies of formation (or heats of formation), AHf, for the reactants and products. Because the temperature, pressure, and state of the substance will cause these enthalpies to vary, it is common to use a standard state convention. For gases, the standard state is 1 atm pressure. For a substance in an aqueous solution, the standard state is 1 molar concentration. And for a pure substance (compound or element), the standard state is the most stable form at 1 atm pressure and 25°C. A degree symbol to the right of the H indicates a standard state, AH°. The standard enthalpy of formation of a substance (AHf) is the change in enthalpy when 1 mol of the substance is formed from its elements when all substances are in their standard states. These values are then tabulated and can be used in determining A//°rxn. 

Theory Iron (III) upto an extent of 50-200 meg can be extracted effectively from an aqueous solution with a 1% solution of 8-hydroxyquinoline (symbolized as HQ) in chloroform by carrying out a double extraction when the pH of the resulting aqueous solution ranges between 2 and 10. Evidently, between pH 2.0 to 2.5 metals like Ni, Co, Ce (III) and A1 do not interfere at all. However, iron (III) oxinate is dark-coloured in chloroform and absorbs at 470 nm.

The dissociation constant for a Brpnsted acid (commonly symbolized K ) is [H+] [A ]/[HA], where HA is the undissociated acid and A represents the conjugate base. In aqueous solutions, water participates in this equilibrium. However, since the concentration of water is large and essentially constant, it has been incorporated into the constant The negative logarithm is referred to as the p/ a for the acid.

An n-type semiconductor anode and a p-type cathode are shown to left and right, respectively. In each case the minimum light energy to give rise to a photocurrent is indicated by hvmin (n) and hvmin (p), respectively. The energies available for oxidation and reduction are also indicated. and Ev(n) are conduction and valence band edges for the n-type material and Ec(p) and E fp) are those for the p-type material. Other symbols as in Figure 7.

For liquid water and for aqueous solutions we wiU assume Cp = 1 cal/g K, and, since the density p of water is -1 g/cm, we have pCp = 1 cal/cm K or pCp =1000 cal/Uter K. To estimate the heat capacity of gases, we will usually assume that the molar heat capacity Cp is j R cal/mole K. There are thus three types of heat capacity, the heat capacity per unit mass Cp, the heat capacity per unit volume pCp, and the heat capacity per mole Cp. However, we will use heat capacity per unit volume for much of the next two chapters, and we use the symbol pCp for most of the equations. 

These examples are sufficient to form the basis of the discussion of the nature of cations and anions in aqueous solutions. In aqueous solution, ions are stabilized by their interaction with the solvent they become h>drated and this slate is indicated in equations by the (a< ) symbolism. This is a broad generalization and is amplified by further discussions in the next sections and in the remainder of the book. 

The pH scale in water is widely used as a measure of acid-base properties in aqueous solutions. It is defined by pH=-log a(H+). In Section 3.1, we dealt with the poH value, defined by poH=-log a(H+), for solutions in amphiprotic and aprotic solvents of high permittivity. Recently, however, the symbol pH has also been used for the value of -log o(H+) in such non-aqueous solutions. Therefore, hereafter, the symbol pH is used instead of paH-... 

Carbonate op Strontia is found native as stron-tianite, both massive, and in forms belonging to the square prismatic system. It is most readily prepared pure by precipitating the nitrate or chloride with carbonate of ammonia, The artificial carbonate is beautifully white and soluble in one thousand five hundred and thirty-six parts of boiling Water. It is more soluble in aqueous solution of carbonio acid, and separates in needles when, evaporated. Heated to bright redness in a stream of watery vapor it loses its carbonic acid, and becomes changed into strontia. The symbol is SrO, CO Eq. 74-00 specific gravity, 3 605. 

However, there is another potentially fatal haw in the binding of dioxygen by heme irreversible oxidation. If free heme in aqueous solution is exposed to dioxygen, it is converted almost immediately into a p.-oxo dimer known as hematin. The mechanism of this reaction has been worked out in detail.18 The reactions are as follows, where the heme group is symbolized by the circle about an iron atom. The first step is the binding of the dioxygen molecule, as in hemoglobin 19... 

This quantity is known as the mobility of the ion and is given the symbol u. Some experimental values are given in Table 2 for ions in dilute aqueous solution.
