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

How much work is done if an object moves 4.5 m in has 12 Newtons of force on it
Cloud [144]

The formula of work is Work (Joules)=Force (Newtons) · distance in the direction of the force (meters), therefore its just a matter of replacing factors.

Work done = 12 · 4.5= 54 joules

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

           A planet's <u>hydrosphere</u> can be<u> liquid</u>, <u>vapor</u>, or <u>ice</u>. On Earth, in the places at the <u>north and south pole</u>, water exists in ice or glacier form, in the <u>atmosphere</u> it exists in vapor form and liquid water exists on the <u>surface</u> in the form of oceans, lakes and rivers. It also exists below ground as <u>groundwater</u>, in wells and aquifers. Water collects in clouds, then falls to Earth in the form of <u>rain or snow</u>,
