Suppose you measure the absorbance of a yellow dye solution in a 1.00 cm cuvette. The absorbance of the solution at 427 nm is 0.

20. If the molar absorptivity of yellow dye at 427 nm is 27400 M–1cm–1, what is the concentration of the solution?

Answer:

The concentration of the solution, C=7.2992\times 10^{-6} M

Explanation:

The absorbance of a solution can be calculated by Beer-Lambert's law as:

A=\varepsilon Cl

Where,  

A is the absorbance  of the solution

ɛ is the molar absorption coefficient (L.mol^{-1}.cm^{-1})

C is the concentration (mol^{-1}.L^{-1})

l is the path length of the cell in which sample is taken (cm)

Given,

A = 0.20

ɛ = 27400 M^{-1}.cm^{-1}

l = 1 cm

Applying in the above formula for the calculation of concentration as:

A=\varepsilon Cl

0.20= 27400\times C\times 1

C = \frac{0.20}{27400\times 1} M

So , concentration is:

C=7.2992\times 10^{-6} M

A solution containing a mixture of metal cations was treated with dilute hcl and a precipitate formed. the solution was filtered
likoan [24]
If you really keep an eye on the flow chart, the only ions you can consider as being "Definitely not present" are: Cr3+, Fe3+, and Zn2+. The rest of the ions should be considered under "Possibly present", as we cannot conclude if any of the ions are "Definitely present".

Calculate the empirical formula of each of the following substances with the following compositions.
OleMash [197]

Explanation:

Note: Molar masses of elements can be found online or in the periodic table.

Moles of Magnesium

= 3.60g / (24.3g/mol) = 0.148mol.

Moles of Chlorine

= 10.65g / (35.45g/mol) = 0.300mol.

Mole ratio of Magnesium to Chlorine

= 0.148mol : 0.300mol = 1 : 2.

Hence we have the empirical formula MgCl2.

Moles of Lithium

= 9.1g / (6.94g/mol) = 1.311mol.

Moles of Oxygen

= 10.4g / (16g/mol) = 0.650mol.

Moles ratio of Lithium to Oxygen

= 1.311mol : 0.650mol = 2 : 1.

Hence we have the empirical formula Li2O.

When an alkaline earth metal, a, reacts with a halogen, x, the formula of the covalent compund formed should be a2x?
Ierofanga [76]

Alkaline earth metal are the elements present in II group in the periodic table and are known as 'Metals' and have a charge of +2.

Alkaline earth metals - Be , Mg Ca, Sr , Ba, Ra

Halogens are present in VII A group in the periodic table and are 'Non-metals' and have a charge of -1.

Halogens - F, Cl, Br, I, At

When Alkaline earth metal (metals) combine with Halogens (non-metals) the compound formed will be ionic compound and the formula of the compound will be based on the charges of the element.

When we write the formula of the ionic compound the charges of the elements get criss crossed.

For example - Mg (Alkaline earth metal) have a charge of +2 and Cl (Halogen) have a charge of -1 and when they combine to form the formula their charges get criss crossed and we will get Mg_{1}Cl_{2} or MgCl_{2}

When an alkaline earth metal, A, reacts with a halogen, X, the formula of the Ionic compound formed should be AX_{2}
