Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Anode;

Sn(s) ------> Sn^2+(aq) + 2e

Cathode;

Mn^2+(aq) + 2e ------> Mn(s)

The minimum voltage required to drive the reaction is the cell voltage. The cell voltage is obtained from;

E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode

E°cell= -1.19 - (-0.14)

E°cell= -1.05 V

If the molar absorptivity constant for the red dye solution is 5.56×104 M-1cm-1, calculate the molarity of the red dye solution

Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

a) Using Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

$A=\epsilon \times c\times l$

where,

A = absorbance of solution = 0.945

c = concentration of solution = ?

l = length of the cell = 1.20 cm

$\epsilon$ = molar absorptivity of this solution = $5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}$

$0.945=5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}\times 1.20 \times c$

$c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=14.16 \mu M$

( $1\mu M=10^{-6} M$ )

14.16 μM is the molarity of the red dye solution at the optimal wavelength 519nm and absorbance value 0.945.

b) $c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} mol/L$

1 L of solution contains $1.4163\times 10^{-5}$ moles of red dye.

Mass of $1.4163\times 10^{-5}$ moles of red dye:

$1.4163\times 10^{-5}\times 879.86g/mol=0.01246 g$

$(w/v)\%=\frac{\text{Mass of solute (g)}}{\text{Volume of solvent (mL)}}\times 100$

$red(w/v)\%=\frac{0.01246 g}{1000 mL}\times 100=0.001246\%$

c) In order to dilute red dye solution by 5 times, we will need to add 1 L of water to solution of given concentration.

Concentration of red dye solution = $c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M$

Concentration of red solution after dilution = c'

$c=c'\times 5$

$1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=c'\times 5$

$c'=2.83\times 10^{-6} M$

The final concentration of the diluted solution is $2.83\times 10^{-6} M$
