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

C) a fundamental force would be gravity
For the answer to the question above asking w<span>hich of the following would likely form a heterogeneous mixture?
The answer would be</span> <span>sand and water
other choices like
,baking soda salt and sugar are soluble in water and form homogeneous solution</span>
It is called distillation
It depends on the solubility of the solute in the solvent. For example, sodium chloride dissolves in water, therfore we can form a salt solution. Or, copper does not dissolve in water, therfore we can't obtain a solution.
