Practice Problem: Gravimetric Analysis

What the heck is gravimetric analysis? Well let's say we want to know how much of a substance is in some mixture. We could toss it in solution and cause it to form a precipitate with some other ion in solution. We can measure the mass of that precipitate, and use that to find out how much of that substance was in the mixture. Aren't chemists clever?

    Here in the Netherlands, you gain no points whenever your write something like CaSO4 (aq). Spectator ions should never be used in reactions and ions are seperated in solution! Furthermore, nice videos! Keep on going!

    It's not a net ionic equation, calcium sulfate must be written because we are doing stoichiometry to figure out the initial mass of it that was in the solid mixture.

  • @EntropicalNature

    Of course I realize that in order to know the initial mass you need to know the molar mass of CaSO4 and that you were not doing a net ionic equation. I just want to prevent misconceptions from happening. For example, you could describe the precipitation reaction as Ba2+ + SO4 2- -> BaSO4 and then deduce (since the source of Barium ions is in surplus) that the sulfate ions are the limiting factor. Then from the process of dissolving calciumsulfate you can and should determine the eventual stoichiometry. Being a science teacher I cannot stand people who write for example NaCl (aq), since we all know there is no such thing. So there's another way of explaining it, is all I'm saying. I understand your reasoning for presenting the matter in this way, but it should be explicitly stated that said notation is chemically incorrect. I hope I don't offend you, since I'm really in love with the work you're doing! I'm even learning Italian because of you!! (yet, I still don't know why...)

    It's the same solution. Your Gravimetric factor came from a similar process. That equation was derived just like in the video. But helps to do quick maths in the exams I guess. :D

    I think nobody can help you neang, since no analytical solutions exist to this integral. Just two short comments: 1. why are you posting this as a reply to this (chemical) video? 2. if you really want an approximate solution: just use the Taylor expansion of e^x and then use integration by parts.... Good luck!
