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Beer's law is no longer valid.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.

Explanation:
Just did the test and it was correct!
Seas are smaller than oceans. Oceans are where land and water meet, and are usually bigger.
Answer:
a) 88.48%
b) 0.05625 mol
Explanation:
2CH₃CH₂OH(l) → CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃(l) + H₂O(g) Reaction 1
CH₃CH₂OH(l) → CH₂═CH₂(g) + H₂O(g) Reaction 2
a) CH₃CH₂OH = 46.0684 g/mol
CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ = 74.12 g/mol
1 mol CH₃CH₂OH ______ 46.0684 g
x ______ 50.0 g
x = 1.085 mol CH₃CH₂OH
1 mol CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃ ______ 74.12 g g
y ______ 35.9 g
y = 0.48 mol CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃
100% yield _____ 0.5425 mol CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃
w _____ 0.48 mol CH₃CH₂OCH₂CH₃
w = 88.48%
b) Only 0.96 mol of ethanol reacted to form diethyl ether. This means that 0.125 mol of ethanol did not react. 45% of 0.125 mol reacted to form ethylene. Therefore, 0.05625 mol of ethanol reacted by the side reaction (reaction 2). Since 1 mol of ethanol leads to 1 mol of ethylene, 0.05625 mol of ethanol produces 0.05625 mol of ethylene.
