Actual question from source:-

A 3.96x10-4 M solution of compound A exhibited an absorbance of 0.624 at 238 nm in a 1.000 cm cuvette.  A blank had an absorbance of 0.029.  The absorbance of an unknown solution of compound A was 0.375.  Find the concentration of A in the unknown.

Answer:

Molar absorptivity of compound A = 1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}

Explanation:

According to the Lambert's Beer law:-

A=\epsilon l c

Where, A is the absorbance

 l is the path length  

\epsilon is the molar absorptivity

c is the concentration.  

Given that:-

c = 3.96\times 10^{-4}\ M

Path length = 1.000 cm

Absorbance observed = 0.624

Absorbance blank = 0.029

A = 0.624 - 0.029 = 0.595

So, applying the values in the Lambert Beer's law as shown below:-

0.595=\epsilon\times 1.000\ cm\times 3.96\times 10^{-4}\ M

\epsilon=\frac{0.595}{3.96\times 10^{-4}}\ {Ms}^{-1}=1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}

<u>Molar absorptivity of compound A = 1502.53\ {Ms}^{-1}</u>

What is the difference between calorie and Calorie?
Blababa [14]

What is the difference between calories and kilocalories? The "calorie" we refer to in food is actually kilocalorie. One (1) kilocalorie is the same as one (1) Calorie (upper case C). A kilocalorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water one degree Celsius.

The density of ice is 0.917 g/cm3. How much volume does 52.3 g of ice occupy? Show your work.
mash [69]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>57.0 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

From the question

mass of ice = 52.3 g

density = 0.917 g/cm³

The volume is

volume =  \frac{52.3}{0.917}  \\  = 57.0338058

We have the final answer as

<h3>57.0 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

The name carbohydrate comes from the fact that many simple sugars have chemical formulae that look like water has simply been ad
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The maximum mass of water produced is  m__{H_2O}} =116 \ g

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of  sucrose is m_s  = 200 \ g

    The chemical formula for  sucrose is  C_{12} H_{22} O_{11}

The chemical equation for the dissociation of sucrose  is

          C_{12} H_{22}O_{4} \to 12C + 11H_2O

The number of moles of  sucrose can be evaluated as

        n =  \frac{m}{Z}

Where Z is the molar mass of sucrose which has a constant value of

      Z  = 342 \ g/mol

So  

    n = \frac{200}{342}

   n =0.585

From the chemical equation one mole of sucrose produces 11 moles of water so  0.585 moles of sucrose will produce x moles of  water

Therefore

          x =  \frac{0.585 * 11}{1}

         x = 6.433 \ moles

Now the mass of water produced is mathematically represented as

         m__{H_2O}} =  x * Z__{H_2O}

 Where  Z__{H_2O} is the molar mass of water with a constant values of  Z__{H_2O}} = 18 \ g/mol

  So  

        m__{H_2O}} =  6.43* 18

       m__{H_2O}} =116 \ g
