Answer:

The concentration of the analyte is determined by fitting the absorbance or transmittance obtained by spectrophotometric analysis of the unknown solution into the calibration curve.

Explanation:

In a calibration curve, the instrumental response (absorbance or transmittance), is plotted against the concentration of the analyte (the substance to be measured). The analyst is expected to prepare a series of standard solutions of the analyte within a range of solution concentrations close to the expected concentration of analyte in the unknown solution. The method of least squares may be used to determine the best fit of the line, thus, the concentration of the analyte. This method is only used for the determination of the concentration of coloured substances (spectrophotometry).

Triss [41]

Answer:

1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.

Explanation:

<em>∵ [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.</em>

[H₃O⁺] = 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M.

<em>∴ [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺]</em> = 10⁻¹⁴/(1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M) = <em>1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.</em>

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 226 Liters of oxygen

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

We use the equation;

LiClO4 (s) → 2O2 (g) + LiCl, to get the moles of oxygen;

Moles of  LiClO4;

(500 g LiClO4) / (106.3916 g LiClO4/mol)

= 4.6996 moles

Moles of oxygen;

But, for every 1 mol LiClO4, two moles of O2 are produced;

= 9.3992 moles of Oxygen

V = nRT / P

= (9.3992 mol) x (8.3144621 L kPa/K mol) x (21 + 273) K / (101.5 kPa)

= 226 L of oxygen

✞Why is propane stored in household tanks but natural gas is not?♡♡♡​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

In order to keep propane a liquid at room temperature (70° F or 21° C), it has to be held in a tank at a pressure of about 850 kPa. ... Household metal tanks cannot withstand this pressure. In short, natural gas is not stored in household tanks because the symmetry of its molecule makes it hard to liquify.
