The student plans to conduct a spectrophotometric analysis to determine the concentration of Cu2+(aq) in a solution. The solutio

n has a small amount of Co(NO3)2 (aq) present as a contaminant. The student is given a diagram below, which shows the absorbance curves for aqueous solutions of Co2+ (aq) and Cu2+ (aq)
c. The spectrophotometer available to the student has a wavelength range of 400 nm to 700 nm. What wavelength should the student use to minimize the interference from the presence of the Co2+ (aq)?

Answer:

The wavelength the student should use is 700 nm.

Explanation:

Attached below you can find the diagram I found for this question elsewhere.

Because the idea is to minimize the interference of the Co⁺²(aq) species, we should <u>choose a wavelength in which its absorbance is minimum</u>.

At 400 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance, however neither does Cu⁺²(aq). While at 700 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance and Cu⁺²(aq) does.

For each molecule, specify the polarity of the bonds and the overall polarity of the molecule.
olasank [31]
Each Be–Cl bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (0) indicate that this molecule has a linear geometry. The bonds in a linear molecule are symmetric, and so their dipoles cancel out.

Each O–H bond is polar because the two atoms have different electronegativities. The number of outer atoms (2) and lone pairs on the central atom (2) indicate that this molecule has a bent geometry. The bonds in a bent molecule are asymmetric, and so their dipoles do not cancel out. In addition, the asymmetric arrangement of the lone pairs on O further contribute to the dipole of this molecule.

An O–O or O=O bond is nonpolar because the two atoms have the same electronegativity. Because there is no overall polarity in O2, the molecule is nonpolar.

Answer:

Is the source an authority on the subject?

Explanation:

To figure out which source is accurate, you want to find out the source's authority on the subject. For  example, if you wanted to learn how to play the piano, you wouldn't go to a dance teacher, you would go to someone who knows how to play the piano. The person who knows how to play the piano has more authority to teach the piano than a dance teacher.

Answer:

The granite block transferred <u>4080 joules</u> of energy, and the mass of the water is <u>35.84 grams</u>.

Explanation:

The equation needed to answer both parts of the question is:

Q = mcΔT

In this equation,

-----> Q = energy/heat (J)

-----> m = mass (g)

-----> c = specific heat (J/g°C)

-----> ΔT = change in temperature (°C)

<u>Part #1:</u>

First, you need to find the energy transferred from granite block using the previous equation. You have been given the mass, specific heat, and change in temperature.

Q = ? J                            c = 0.795 J/g°C

m = 126.1 g                     ΔT = 92.6 °C - 51.9 °C = 40.7 °C

Q = mcΔT

Q = (126.1 g)(0.795 J/g°C)(40.7 )

Q = 4080

<u>Part #2:</u>

Secondly, using the energy calculated in Part #1, you need to calculate the mass of the water. You have calculated the energy transferred, and have been given the specific heat and change in temperature.

Q = 4080 J                     c = 4.186 J/g°C

m = ? g                            ΔT = 51.9 °C - 24.7 °C = 27.2 °C

Q = mcΔT

4080 J = m(4.186 J/g°C)(27.2 °C)

4080 J = m(113.8592)

35.84 = m
