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.

An analytical chemist weighs out 0.188 g of an unknown triprotic acid into a 250 mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark wit
Anon25 [30]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar mass of unknown triprotic acid is 97.66 g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of triprotic acid

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=3\\M_1=?M\\V_1=250mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.0600M\\V_2=95.9mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

3\times M_1\times 250=1\times 0.0600\times 95.9\\\\M_1=0.0077M

To calculate the molecular mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

We are given:

Molarity of solution = 0.0077 M

Given mass of triprotic acid = 0.188 g

Volume of solution = 250 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0077M=\frac{0.188\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of triprotic acid}\times 250}\\\\\text{Molar mass of triprotic acid}=97.66g/mol

Hence, the molar mass of unknown triprotic acid is 97.66 g/mol

Energy is involved in some way in all chemical reactions. Which type of reaction involves the absorption of energy from the surr
storchak [24]

Answer:

endothermic reaction

Explantion:

The definition for endothermic is:

describing a process that involves the absorption of energy from the surroundings by substances undergoing change.

Think of <em>en-</em>dothermic as energy entering and <em>ex-</em>othermic as energy exiting.
