Aspirin has the structural formula At bod temperature (37 C), Ka for aspirin equals 3 X 10- . If two aspirin tablets, each having a mass of 325 mg, are dissolved in a full stomach whose volume is 1 L and whose pH is 2, what percent of the aspirin is in the form of neutral molecules?

What is the pH at 25 oc of water saturated with C02 at a partial pressure of 1.10 atm? The Henry's law constant for C02 at 25 C is 3.1 X 10- 2 mol/L-atrn. The C02 is an acidic oxide, reacting with H20 to form H2C03.

Excess Ca(OH)z is shaken with water to produce a saturated solution. The solution is filtered, and a 50.00-mL sample titrated with HCl requires 11.23 mL of 0.0983 M HCl to reach the end point. Calculate K,p for Ca(OH)z. Compare your result with that in Appendix D. Do you think the solution was kept at 25 C?

The osmotic pressure of a saturated solution of strontium sulfate at 25 oc is 21 torr. What is the solubility product of this salt at 25 C?

A concentration of 10-100 parts per billion (by mass) of Ag + is an effective disinfectant in swimming pools. However, if the concentration exceeds this range, the Ag+ can cause adverse health effects. One way to maintain an appropriate concentration of Ag + is to add a slightly soluble salt to the pool. Using Ksp values from Aprendix D, calculate the equilibrium concentration of Ag in parts per billion that would exist in equilibrium with (a) AgCl, (b) AgBr, (c) Agl.
