Working as a summer student for the ministry of natural resources you are responsible for testing the water in a creek near an industrial site for the presence of
the toxic metal ions lead (II) and mercury (II) in the water. Design an experiment to
sequentially test for the presence of lead (II) and mercury ions as well as the non-toxic
magnesium ion. Assume the water sample does not include any other interfering ions.
Show the net ionic equations for the precipitation reactions that might occur.

Why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? why do you suppose the structural polysaccharide cellulose does not contain branches? branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby decreasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby increasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into globules, thereby increasing the flexibility and strength of the globules. branches in the molecule would generate side chains that would almost certainly make it difficult to pack the cellulose molecules into microfibrils, thereby decreasing the rigidity and strength of the microfibrils.

You encounter a solution that is acidic and you decide to test it by adding a small amount of a strong acid. the ph lowers slightly but is approximately unchanged, and still remains acidic. what can you say about the solution? a. it is a buffer solution. b. it is not a buffer solution it is a strong acid solution. d. the solution has been neutralized. e. the solution has excess acid present
