Question
I need help to produce a standard curve with the attached worksheet. The curve/graph should be absorbance versus concentration.
FuneuEpose of this exercise is to familiarize or refresh students on the execution and
Eunction of ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) light absorption spectroscopy.
Toward that end the
CeenES will determine and record the absorption values of a set of 4 standards and use the
collected data t o determine the concentration of an unknown.
Familiarize yourself with the
Cundamentals of UV/vis absorption spectroscopy using at least your analytical chemistry
(quantitative chemistry) text.
