In the spectrophotometric analysis of benzene, the calibration curve has a slope of 195 AU/M and an intercept of 0.079 AU. If an

unknown has an absorbance of 0.517 AU, what is the concentration of benzene in the sample?
a. 2.09 x10^-4 M
b. 2.25 x 10^-3 M
c. 2.65 x 10^-3 M
d. 0.438 M

Answer:

b. 2.25 x 10^-3 M

Explanation:

Please remember that according to Beer´s, law the absorbance is given by

A = Acl where A = absorbance, A is the molar absorptivity, c is concentration (M) and l is the path length of the cubette of used.

Now it follows from this equation that the absorbance is linearly related to concentration and what we are being told is that experimentally the linear equation obtained during calibration was:

A = 195 c + 0.079

We have all the information required to solve this question to solve for c:

0.517 = 195 c + 0.079 ⇒ c = (0.517 - 0.079) AU/ 195 AU/M = 2.25 x 10⁻³ M

Most full scuba tanks have a pressure of between 1,800 p.s.i. and 3,000 p.s.i. (pounds per square inch). Approximately 70 to 85
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: The Diver's air tank is filled with oxygen gas.

The filling of air tank while keeping in water can be explained in reference to the Charles' Law.

Charles' Law: It states that the volume of the ideal gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature at constant pressure.

                        V\propto T    (at constant Pressure)

The Scuba tank contains cold water and is present at high pressure. The gas which is put in the tank will be compact and would not expand. As the temperature is low inside the tank, hence by using Charles' Law, the volume will also decrease inside the tank.

When the air tank is filled, it is always kept in a tub of water because the pressure is high and hence, more oxygen gas can be filled inside the air tank.

0.785 moles of N2,fill a balloon at 1.5 atm and 301 K.<br> What is the volume of the balloon?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

V = 12.93 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 0.785 mol

Pressure of balloon = 1.5 atm

Temperature = 301 K

Volume of balloon = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will put the values.

V = nRT/P

V = 0.785 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K × 301 K / 1.5 atm

V = 19.4 L /1.5

V = 12.93 L
