A student plots the graph of absorbance vs. concentration for their sample. They end up with a line with the equation y = 0.015x + 0.006. If the student finds the absorbance of the caffeine solution is 0.117, what would be the concentration of caffeine in mg/ml?

You can analyze for a copper compound in water using an instrument called a spectrophotometer. [A spectrophotometer is a scientific instrument that measures the amount of light (of a given wavelength) that is absorbed by the solution] The amount of light absorbed at a given wavelength of light (A) depends directly on the mass of compound per liter of solution. To calibrate the spectrophotometer, you collect the following data: Plot the absorbance (A) against the mass of copper compound per liter (g/L), and find the slope (m) and intercept (b) (assuming that A is y and the amount in solution is x in the equation for a straight line, y = mx + b). What is the mass of copper compound in the solution in g/L and mg/mL when the absorbance is 0.635?
Which of these statements are qualitative? Which are quantitative? Explain your choice in each case. (a) Sodium is a silvery-white metal. (b) Aluminum melts at 660 C. (c) Carbon makes up about 23% of the human body by mass. (d) Pure carbon occurs in different forms: graphite, diamond, and fullerenes.
The safe dosage of the IV antibiotic ceftriaxone for children weighing more than 2.0 kg is 60. mg per kilogram of body weight. Suppose a pediatric nurse has available 1.5 L of a ceftriaxone solution with a concentration of 0.030 g/mL. How can she calculate the volume of this solution that she should administer to a child weighing 41. kg? Set the math up. But don't do any of it. Just leave your answer as a math expression.
If the caffeine concentration in a particular brand of soda is 2.91 mg/oz,2.91 mg/oz, drinking how many cans of soda would be lethal? Assume that 10.0 g of caffeine is a lethal dose, and there are 12 oz in a can.
Suppose you prepared a plot for this experiment and the equation of the trendline was y = 78.012x+0.01251 Based on this information, what would be the absorbance of the solution if the concentration is 0.009697 M? DO NOT include units in your answer. Follow sig. fig. rules as you perform your calculations, but DO NOT round your answer until the very end of your calculation. Credit will only be given for answers that have the correct value and significant figures.
It has been estimated that there is 4 x 10^-4 mg of gold per liter of seawater. At a price of $19.40/g, what would be the value of the gold in 1 km^3 (1 x 10^25 cm^3) of the ocean?
A student dissolves a Jefferson nickel to make 100.00 mL of solution in a volumetric flask. The student takes a 5.00 mL aliquot of the first solution and dilutes it to make 100.00 mL of a second solution. The student places a sample of the second solution in a cuvette for analysis using spectrophotometry. The molarity of the copper solution in the cuvette was determined by spectrophotometric analysis to be 2.90×10−2 M Cu. Calculate the mass of copper in the Jefferson nickel used to make the first solution.
please see image attached: A chemistry student weighs out 0.146 g of chloroacetic acid into a 250. mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. He plans to titrate the acid with 0.1400M(molarity) NaOH solution. Calculate the volume of NaOH solution the student will need to add to reach the equivalence point. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.
You can calculate cost effectiveness using the following formula: volume of HCI neutralized per dose /cost per dose (formula) If you calculated that your volume of HCl neutralized per dose was 10.22 mL, calculate the cost effectiveness for Brand X. You can directly use the cost per dose you calculated in the previous problem. Do not include a unit in your answer. Report your answer to two decimal places. Brand X antacid: 2 tablets / 500 mg dose 40 tablets / container Cost: $3.75 / container
After creating her standard curve for absorption versus the concentration (M) of FD&C Red 40 and processing her data, Sally found that her drinking strength Kool-Aid sample had a concentration of 4.692 x 10–5 M. If 0.132 grams of Kool-Aid powder was used to prepare an 8-fl oz cup of her assigned flavor, what is the percent by mass of FD&C Red 40 in her Kool-aid powder? Report your answer as a percentage with two places after the decimal. Do not include the percentage sign in your answer. Pay attention to units. You are trying to find the mass percentage of red dye, so you need to know each variable in the equation in Appendix B. Note that the percent by mass equation should be multiplied by 100. There may be some useful conversion factors in the experimental procedure.
