Answer:
Molar concentration of the Fe³⁺ in the unknown solution is 8.01x10⁻⁵M.
Explanation:
When you make a calibration curve in a spectrophotographic analysis you are applying the Lambert-Beer law that states the concentration of a compound is directely proportional to its absorbance:
A = E*l*C
<em>Where A is absorbance, E is molar absorption coefficient, l is optical path length and C is molar concentration</em>
<em />
Using the equation of the line you obtain:
y = 4541.6X + 0.0461
<em>Where Y is absorbance and X is concentration -We will assume concentration is given in molarity-</em>
As absorbance of the unknown is 0.410:
0.410 = 4541.6X + 0.0461
X = 8.01x10⁻⁵M
<h3>Molar concentration of the Fe³⁺ in the unknown solution is 8.01x10⁻⁵M.</h3>
