the ______ of the water in the _____ was modeled
salinity profile

San Antonio Bay
samples were collected in
march, a wet month, and april
the salinity was calculated from an experimentally determined
chloride ion concentration
what was the titrant used
silver nitrate
what factors are important in determining the biological health of the ecosystem (4)
temp, pH, salinity, turbidity
the san antonio bay is fed by
the guadalupe river
salinity
the amount of salt dissolved in a samples of water
salinity is typically reported in
grams salt per liter samples or parts per thousand (ppt)
the most abundant dissolved salt in seawater is
sodium chloride, NaCl
equation for ppt NaCl concentration
g NaCl/g salt water x 1000
on average the salinity of oceanic waters is
35 ppt
river have an average salinity of
1.6 ppt
the salinity profiles of bays and estuaries show
a large variance in salinity according to location, time of day, and time of year
the weight of NaCl in a saline solution can be calculated if
the chloride ion concentration in molarity is known [Cl-]
silver nitrate symbol
AgNO3
solubility rules tell us that silver ions (Ag+) will
form an insoluble solid when reacted with chloride ions (Cl-)
what is AgCl
a white silver chloride precipitate
before the equivalence point there is an excess of
the chloride ion
at the equivalence point,
all the chloride ion has reacted and the precipitate ceases to form
after the equivalence point,
the excess silver ion concentration increases
titrations using silver nitrate can be called 2 things
argentometric titrations

precipitation titrations
argentometric methods have been used in the determination of (6)
halides, thiocyanate, cyanide, mercaptans, inorganic anions, fatty acids
the equivalence point of a precipitation titration is defined as being the point at which
the precipitate no longer forms
brightly colored adsorbent species or precipitates
chemical indicators
Fajan's method relies on the use of
an adsorbtion indicator, dichlorofluorescein
dichlorofluorescein is a
weak organic acid
adsorption indicators form a _____ as they adsorb to the surface of particles in solution
colored layer
the silver chloride particles that form before the equivalence point will adsorb the _____ over the ____
excess chloride ions

indicator anions
what prevents the adsorption of the dichlorofluoresceinate anions (Ind-)?
the negative charge of Cl- around the AgCl molecule
once the equivalence point is reached, _____ begin to adsorb on the surface of the precipitate
Ag+ ions
dichlorofluoresceinate anions form a ___ layer as they adsorb to the ______
pink

Ag+ ions
what happens to silver cations in bright light
they are reduced to silver metal
silver solutions containing a fine gray precipitate, reduced silver,
should not be used
what promotes more adsorption of the indicator and results in sharper endpoints
increasing the precipitate surface areas
the addition of what to the analyte solution prevents the silver chloride particles from coagulating
the carbohydrate dextrin
waste containing silver will
be collected in waste jars
what did we do before titrating the bay water samples
titrated a standard NaCl solution
when using Fajan's method the endpoint is more clearly seen when
the indicator is added close to the endpoint
the solution will change from _____ to _____
orange/tan

milky pink
what is performed to determine the approx endpoint
a fast titration
a calculated endpoint volume of less than 1 mL AgNO3 indiciates that
the sample being titrated is too dilute
true or false. if you arrive late, you will be able to take the make-up quiz in 412 held
false
true or false. if you drop chem 102 you have to drop 112
false
formula unit equation?
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) <=> AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)
total ionic equation?
Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq) <=> AgCl(s) + Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq)
net ionic equation?
Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) <=> AgCl(s)
we assumed that density of bay water was
1 g/mL
real data was collected by ______ in the ______ at tamu
dr. stephen davis

department of wildlife and fisheries sciences
practical salinity is determined by measuring the
conductivity of water samples
conductivity of water is directly related to
salt (electrolyte) concentration
what connects the gulf of mexico to san antonio bay
ayers bay
water flows from ____ to ____ thru ayers bay
san antonio bay

gulf of mx
there is a higher salinity in the bay in
April
