QUESTION 1
Evaluating data of any analysis is considered an important step in analytical chemistry.
Analysis of several plant-food preparations for potassium ion yielded the following data:
Sample Percent K* 1 5.15, 5.03, 5.04, 5.18, 5.20 2 7.18, 7.17, 6.97 3 4.00, 3.93, 4.15, 3.86 4 4.68, 4.85, 4.79, 4.62 5 6.04, 6.02, 5.82, 6.06, 5.88
The preparations were randomly drawn from the same population.
a) Find the mean and standard deviation for each sample.
(12 Marks)
b) Obtain the pooled value Spooled.
(4 Marks)
c) Why the result at (b) is a better estimate of a than the standard deviation from
any one sample.

QUESTION 2
a) Steel which only contains Ag and Cu was analyzed by dissolving the steel in HNO3,
adding 10 3 in excess and weighing the mixture of A910 3 and Cu(10 3 )2 formed after
filtering process. If the steel sample weighs 0.2175 g and the weight of precipitate
formed is 0.7391 g, determine the content percentage of steel (Ag, Cu).
