Margaret [11]

The purpose of using distilled water in the cuvette of the spectrophotometer is to calibrate the instrument. It is generally considered that distilled water shows zero absorbance and 100 % transmittance. So, to zero out the absorbance of compounds other than the analyte being determined, distilled water is used as a blank.

If the unknown being determined is prepared using ethanol as the base solution, the blank used must be ethanol. This is because absorbance if any from the solvent, ethanol must be zeroed out as when the measurement of the actual unknown is being made, the absorbance of the solvent does not interfere.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: A woman kicks a soccer ball and scores a goal.

Explanation:

Potential energy: it is the energy possessed by the body due to its position.

Kinetic energy: it is the energy possessed by the the body due to its motion.

When a woman kick's a soccer ball she transferred her potential energy to soccer ball.Due to this action soccer ball comes into motion which means potential energy imparted to the ball starts getting converted into kinetic energy.

Answer:

The molarity of the solution is 1.1 $\frac{moles}{liter}$

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of the concentration of that substance that is defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the volume of the solution.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of the solute by the volume of the solution:

$molarity=\frac{number of moles of solute}{volume}$

Molarity is expressed in units $\frac{moles}{liter}$

In this case

number of moles of solute= 0.564 moles
volume= 0.510 L

Replacing:

$molarity=\frac{0.564 moles}{0.510 L}$

Solving:

molarity= 1.1 $\frac{moles}{liter}$

The molarity of the solution is 1.1 $\frac{moles}{liter}$

Mila [183]

This problem is to use the Claussius-Clapeyron Equation, which is:

ln [p2 / p1] = ΔH/R [1/T2 - 1/T1]

Where p2 and p1 and vapor pressure at estates 2 and 1

ΔH is the enthalpy of vaporization

R is the universal constant of gases = 8.314 J / mol*K

T2 and T1 are the temperatures at the estates 2 and 1.

The normal boiling point => 1 atm (the pressure of the atmosphere at sea level) = 101,325 kPa

Then p2 = 101.325 kPa
T2 = ?
p1 = 54.0 kPa
T1 = 57.8 °C + 273.15K = 330.95 K
ΔH = 33.05 kJ/mol = 33,050 J/mol

=> ln [101.325/54.0] = [ (33,050 J/mol) / (8.314 J/mol*K) ] * [1/x - 1/330.95]

=> 0.629349 = 3975.22 [1/x - 1/330.95] = > 1/x = 0.000157 + 1/330.95 = 0.003179

=> x = 314.6 K => 314.6 - 273.15 = 41.5°C

Answer: 41.5 °C
