Light PLEASE Thanks me I need points to ask questions
Answer:
A) Dilute the unknown so that it will have an absorbance within the standard curve. Once the diluted unknown concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated if the dilution process is recorded. Beer's law only applies to dilute solutions, so diluting the unknown is better than making new standards.
Explanation:
Beer's law states that <em>absorbance is proportional to the concentrations of the absorbing species</em>. This is verified in the case of diluted solutions (0≤0.01 M) of most substances. <u>As a solution gets more concentrated, solute molecules interact between themselves because of their proximity. </u>When a molecule interacts with another, the change in their electric properties (including absorbance) is probable. That's why <u>the plot of absorbance versus concentration stops being a straight line</u>, and <u>Beer's law is no longer valid.</u>
Therefore, if the absorbance value is higher than the highest standard, dilutions should be made. Once this concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated with the inverse of the dilution.
The reaction will generally form more reactants than products.
B the atomic number is 20 and then you subtract atomic mass to find the neutrons
A positive cahnge of enthalpy, ΔH rxn = + 55 kJ/mol, for the forward reaction means that the reaction is endothermic, i.e. the reactants absorb energy and the products are higher in energy.
Activation energy is the difference in the energy level of the reactants and the peak in the potential energy diagram (the energy of the transition state).
For an endothermic reaction, the products will be closer in energy to the transition state than what the reactans will be; so, the activation energy of the reversed reaction is lower than the activation energy of the forward reaction.
Activation energy of reverse and forward reactions is related by:
Activation energy of reverse rxn = Activation energy of forward rxn - ΔH rxn
=> Activiation energy of reverse rxn = 102 kJ/mol - 55 kJ/mol = 47 kJ/mol
Answer: 47 kJ/mol
