    Chemistry Homework Questions
    1. An important function of Iron is to transport oxygen to various organs. All of adult human blood contains about 3.0 g of Iron. There are about 2.6 x 1013 red blood cells in all of the adult human blood.

    a. How many moles of Iron are present in all of the adult human blood?
    b. How many iron atoms are in each blood cell?

    For this problem, I thought the method was to convert to moles for problem A.
    So what I did was 3.0g Fe*1/55.85g=.0537 moles. I am guessing that is A
    For B, converting to atoms, so taking 2.6*10^13*6.022810^23=1.565*10^37

    Please tell me what I am doing wrong or right.

    Another problem I am stuck on is:
    2) On an alien planet, two different scales are used. Two quantities in both scales are given below:
    23.3 zics = 1 zac 12.2 quarks2 = 2.2 zircs
    Convert 398.0 zircs/(zic)2 to quarks/zac

    What I did for this is:
    398.0 zircs(zic)^2/1*(1zac/23.3 zics)*(12.28 quarks/2.2 zircs)=94.724zac/quarks.

    Please let me know if I did this correctly.

If you place aluminum triflouride into a solution of HF, which is a weak acid, you find that the pH decreases significantly (i.e. the concentration of hydrogen ion increases) as compared to the same concentration of HF alone. Explain this observation. Remember HF is a relatively weak acid.
