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.
Answer: 10.9 mol.
Explanation:
- To understand how to solve this problem, we must mention the reaction equation where water produced from PbO₂.
Pb + PbO₂ + 2H₂SO₄ → 2PbSO₄ + 2H₂O
- Now, it is a stichiometric oriented problem, that 1 mole of PbO₂ produces 2 moles of H₂O.
Using cross multiplication:
1.0 mole of PbO₂ → 2.0 moles of H₂O
5.43 moles of PbO₂ → ??? moles of water
The moles of water produced = (5.43 x 2.0) = 10.86 moles ≅ 10.9 moles.
Answer:
A transition to renewable energy and to replace fossil fuels would take care of economically producing fine greens. Also, a transition to energy conservation and efficient energy use would help in this process.
Have a great day!
number 8 the list is hydrogen,magnesium,silicon and oxygen and there are 4elements
Answer: 72 grams of 
are needed to completely burn 19.7 g 
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 
of particles.
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Putting in the values we get:
According to stoichiometry:
1 mole of 
requires 5 moles of oxygen
0.45 moles of require= 
moles of oxygen
Mass of 
72 grams of are needed to completely burn 19.7 g
