18-19. If a sample for spectrophotometric analysis is placed in a 10-cm cell, the absorbance will be 10 times greater than the a

bsor- bance in a 1-cm cell. Will the absorbance of the reagent-blank solu- tion also be increased by a factor of 10?\

Answer:

As long as it is a blank solution of the reagent, the Absorbance will be 0 regardless of the path length.

Explanation:

Absorbance of light by a reagent of concentration c, is given as

A = εcl

A = Absorbance

ε = molar absorptivity

c = concentration of reagent.

l = length of light path or length of the solution the light passes through.

So, if all.other factors are held constant, If a sample for spectrophotometric analysis is placed in a 10-cm cell, the absorbance will be 10 times greater than the absorbance in a 1-cm cell.

But the reagent blank solution is called a blank solution because it lacks the given reagent. A blank solution does not contain detectable amounts of the reagent under consideration. That is, the concentration of reagent in the blank solution is 0.

Hence, the Absorbance is subsequently 0. And increasing or decreasing the path length of light will not change anything. As long as it is a blank solution of the reagent, the Absorbance will be 0 regardless of the path length.

Hope this Helps!!!

4. What is the difference between an open system and a<br> closed system?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Systems can exist in three ways as open systems, closed systems, and isolated systems. The main difference between open and closed system is that in an open system, matter can be exchanged with the surrounding whereas, in a closed system, matter cannot be exchanged with the surrounding.

Which element decreases its oxidation number in this reaction? bicl2 + na2so4 → 2nacl + biso4?
kifflom [539]
The balanced reaction is as follows;
BiCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ --> 2NaCl + BiSO₄
this is a double displacement reaction 
the oxidation number of Bi is +2 in both BiCl₂ and BiSO₄
oxidation number of Cl is -1 in both BiCl₂ and NaCl 
oxidation number of Na is +1 in both Na₂SO₄ and NaCl
oxidation numbers of elements in SO₄²⁻ remains the same in both compounds.Therefore the oxidation state in any of the elements in the reaction doesn't change. Neither of the elements show an increase or decrease in the oxidation numbers .
Answer for this question is no element decreases its oxidation number.
