A 5.00-mL sample of blood was treated with trichloroacetic acid to precipitate proteins. After centrifugation, the resulting sol

ution was brought to a pH of 3 and was extracted with two 5-mL portions of methyl isobutyl ketone containing the organic lead complexing agent APCD. The extract was aspirated directly into an air-acetylene flame yielding an absorbance of 0.454 at 283.3 nm. Five-milliliter aliquots of standard solutions containing 0.240 and 0.475 ppm Pb were treated in the same way and yielded absorbances of 0.412 and 0.642. Calculate the concentration Pb (ppm) in the sample assuming that Beer’s law is followed.

Explanation:

According to the Beer-lambert' s law,

        Absrobance = absrobptitvity × lenght × concentration

So, if we will plot a graph between absrobance and concentration then we will obtain a straight line

Hence, formula to calculate slope of the graph is as follows.

   The slope of graph = \frac{\text{difference in absrobance at two points}}{\text{difference in concentrations at those points}}

The given data is as follows.

     A_{1} = 0.412 (first point)

     A_{2} = 0.642 (second point)

     C_{1} = 0.240 ppm (first point)

     C_{2} = 0.475 ppm (second point)

Hence, putting these values into the above formula we will calculate the value of slope as follows.

           Slope = \frac{\text{difference in absrobance at two points}}{\text{difference in concentrations at those points}}

                     = \frac{0.642 - 0.412}{0.475 - 0.240}

                      = \frac{0.23}{0.235}

                     = 0.978

It is known that for the graph, line equation can be written as follows.

                       y = mx + c  ........... (1)

where,      C = intercept

                 m = slope

Hence, calculate the value of intercept as follows.

           0.412 = 0.24 \times 0.978 + c

               c = 0.178

As it is given that the absorbance values 0.454 (the y-axis value). Therefore, putting this value into equation (1) we get the following.

                     y = mx + c

                  0.454 = x \times 0.978 + 0.178

                   0.276 = 0.978x

                         x = 0.282 ppm

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of Pb in the given sample is 0.282 ppm.

The reactants are the substances on the left side, which react and give the products on the right side.
The reactants are Fe and O.
The product is Fe2O3.
The arrow to the right means that the reaction is going in only one direction — the only reaction happening at the moment is that Fe and O are making Fe2O3.
(s) means the substance is in the solid state, and (g) means in a gaseous state (or the substance is a gas in that reaction).

Aluminium is a metal give reason​
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Aluminium is ordinarily classified as a metal. It is lustrous, malleable and ductile, and has high electrical and thermal conductivity. Like most metals, it has a close-packed crystalline structure and forms a cation in an aqueous solution.

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2. WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The reaction will shift to the left to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

6CO₂ +  6H₂O  ⇄  C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of O₂  increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.

QUESTION 7
Temka [501]

The student's test average is : 0.92

Total score obtained = 369

Number of tests = 4

Since Each test is exactly 100 points ;

The total score obtainable is (100 × 4) = 400

Average = score obtained / total score obtainable

Average = 369 / 400

Average = 0.9225

Average = 0.92
