A chemist can analyze a sample of the pharmaceutical for the thioridazine content by decomposing it to convert the sulfur in the compound to sulfate ion. This is then trapped as water-insoluble barium sulfate (see Figure 4.4). SO42(aq, from thioridazine) + BaCl2(aq) BaSO4(s) + 2 Cl(aq) Suppose a 12-tablet sample of the drug yielded 0.301 g of BaSO4.

Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forward
