Question: ( 5 pt ) Solid aluminum phosphate ( A l P O 4 ) is in equilibrium with its ions in solution: A l P

(5 pt) Solid aluminum phosphate (AlPO4) is in equilibrium with its ions in solution:
AlPO4harrAl3++PO43-, with Ksp=10-22
Find the equilibrium concentration of phosphate ions (in mgL).
(10 pt) Calculate the equilibrium concentration of dissolved oxygen in water (in mgL):
(a)(5 pt) at 15C and 1 atm (i.e., sea level)
(b)(5 pt) at 15C and 2,000m elevation
(5 pt) Suppose the gas above the soda in a bottle of soft drink is pure CO2 at a pressure of 2 atm. Calculate CO2 concentration (in gL) in the aqueous phase (i.e., the soda) at 25C.
(8 pt) A sample of groundwater has 150mgL of Ca2+ and 60mgL2Mg2+. Find the total hardness expressed in milliequivalents per liter (meq/L) and mgL as CaCO3. How would this water be classified (e.g., soft, hard, etc.)?
(a)(7 pt) Ignoring the contribution of H+and OH-to alkalinity, what is the alkalinity as mgL of CaCO3?
(b)(7 pt) Including the contribution of H+and OH-, find the alkalinity as mgL of CaCO3.
(18 pt) A chemical analysis of a surface water yields the following data:
\table[[Ion,Concentration (mg/L)],[Ca2+,90],[Mg2+,30],[Na+,72],[K+,6],[Cl-,120],[SO42-,225],[HCO3-,165],[pH2,7.5]]
(a)(4 pt) Determine the alkalinity expressed as CaCO3(in mgL)
(b)(4 pt) Determine the hardness as CaCO3(in mgL).
(c)(10 pt) The Cl-concentration in the water analysis has been questioned. What concentration of Cl-(mgL) would make the cations and anions balance?
