The absorbance reported by the defective instrument was 0.3933.

Absorbance A = - log₁₀ T

Tm = transmittance measured by spectrophotometer

Tm = 0.44

Absorbance reported in this equipment = -log₁₀ (0.44) = 0.35654

True absorbance can be calculated by true transmittance, Tm = T+S(α-T)

S = fraction of stray light = 6%= 6/100 = 0.06

α= 1, ideal case

T = true transmittance of the sample

Tm = T+S(α-T)

now, T= Tm-S/ 1-S = 0.44-0.06/ 1-0.06 = 0.404233

therefore, actual reading measured is A = -log₁₀ T = -log₁₀ (0.404233)

i.e; 0.3933

When placed in a freezer, liquid water turns into solid ice. What best describes this change?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The water molecules slow down, stronger attractions form between them, and the molecules are pulled closer together.

Explanation:

In solids the packing of the particles is closer and tighter thus increasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes solids rigid with a definite shape, size and volume. On the other hand in liquids the packing of the particles is loose thus decreasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes liquids able to flow, and takes the shape and volume of the container in which they are placed.

How much heat is required to vaporize 25g of water at 100*c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.

Explanation:

To convert a water to steam at 100 degree celsius to vapor, we have to give latent heat of vaporization to water

Which equals ,

Q = mL,

Where, m is the mass of water present

           L = specific latent heat of vaporization

Here , m= 25 gram

L equals to 533 calories (or 2230 Joules)

So, Q = 25×533 = 13,325 Calories

Or , Q = 55,750 Joules = 55.75 KJ

so, Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.
