Free Response: 22. A student is assigned the task of determining the mass percent of silver in an alloy of copper and silver by dissolving a sample of the alloy in excess nitric acid and then precipitating silver as AgCl. First the student prepares 50. ml of 6 M HNO 3. (a) The student is provided with a stock solution of 16 M HNO 3, two 100 ml graduated cylinders that can be read to ±1 ml, a 100 ml beaker that can be read to ±10 ml, safety goggles, rubber gloves, a glass stirring rod, a dropper, and distilled H 2 O.

(ii) Briefly list the steps of an appropriate and safe procedure for preparing the 50. ml of 6 M HNO 3. Only materials selected from those provided to the student (listed above) may be used. (iii) Explain why it is not necessary to use a volumetric flask (calibrated to 50.00 ml ± 0.05mL) to perform the dilution. (iv) During the preparation of the solution, the student accidentally spills about 1 ml of 16 M HNO 3 on the bench top. The student finds three bottles containing liquids near the spill: a bottle of distilled water, a bottle of 5 percent NaHCO 3 (aq), and a bottle of saturated NaCl (aq). Which of the liquids is best to use in cleaning up the spill? Justify your choice. Then the student pours 25 ml of the 6 M HNO 3 into a beaker and adds a 0.6489 g sample of the alloy. After the sample completely reacts with the acid, some saturated NaCl (aq) is added to the beaker, resulting in the formation of an AgCl precipitate. Additional NaCl (aq) is added until no more precipitate is observed to form. The precipitate is filtered, washed, dried, and weighed to constant mass in a filter crucible as shown in the table below.
