Answer:

(a)  128459 L/mol·cm      

(b)  5.11 x 10⁻⁶ M

Explanation:

This question was incomplete, it is missing the Excel plot and the line fit, please see  attached image of the question.

Crystal violet standard solutions were prepared and their absorbance at a certain wavelength was measured using a spectrophotometer. The path length was 1 cm. The data was plotted using Excel and a line was fit to the points (see below). A sample of unknown concentration was found to have an absorbance of 0.652 at the same wavelength. (a) What is the molar absorptivity of this compound at the certain wavelength? (b) What is the concentration of the unknown sample solution?

(a) This problem we calls for the use of Beer´s law:

A = εcl

where A is the absorbance, ε is the molar absorptivity, c the concentration, and l the path of the cuvette used.

This equation when plotted A vs c will give a straight line since A is a function of c

Thus we can determine ε by using the calibration curve in the Excel plot

y  = 128459 x - 0.0042

the slope of this equation is the molar absorptivity since the length is one, so :

ε = 128459 L/mol·cm      

For part (b)

A = 0.652 = 128459 L/mol·cm x  c  x  1 cm  - 0.0042

⇒ 0.652 +0.0042 = 128459 c = 5.11 x 10⁻⁶ M

In absorbance spectrophotometry it is necessary to work with very dilute solutions to avoid deviations characteristic of high concentrations. One can always dilute the unknown and knowing exactly the dilution factor one can trace back the value for the a more concentrated solution.

The na+/k+ pump removes ______ na+ ions and adds _______ k+ ions.
Paladinen [302]

Sodium potassium pump is an active pump which transfer sodium and potassium ions across the membrane with the expenditure of energy in the form of ATP.

This kind of pump is generally used in nerve cells.

The pump works against the concentration gradient as the pump moves three Na+ ions outside the cell and two K+ ions inside the cell, though there is a high concentration of Na+ outside the cell and a low concentration of K+ outside the cell.

Determine how many oxygeng atoms are in 5.00 g of sample of sodium dichromate, na2cr2o7
vlada-n [284]

The number of oxygen atoms is in 5.00 g of sample of sodium dichromate, Na₂Cr₂O₇ is 1.125 x 10²³ atoms.

<h3>What is sodium dichromate?</h3>

Sodium dichromate is an inorganic compound. It is sued in tanning and mental illness.

The molar mass of sodium = 23 gm

The molar mass of Cr = 51.99 gm

The molar mass of oxygen = 16 gm

Molar mass of Na₂Cr₂O₇ = 2(23) + 2(51.99) + 7(16) = 261.98 gm

Number of moles in 7 gm = mass / molar mass = 7 / 261.98 = 0.0267 moles

1 mole of  Na₂Cr₂O₇ contains 7 moles of oxygen, therefore:

The number of moles of oxygen in 0.0267 moles = 0.0267 x 7 = 0.1869 moles

Thus, the number of atoms = 0.1869 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.125 x 10²³ atoms.
