In a spectrophotometry experiment, (34.1±0.2)% of the light (=I/Io) was transmitted through the sample. The molar absorptivity, e, of the analyzed was measured separately and determined to be (1.47±0.03)×104M' cm', and the path length of light, b, was (1.00 + 0.01) cm. Determine what is the concentration and the uncertainty in concentration of the analyte, with proper units. Be sure to show your work. In this problem you will need to use Beer's Law.

A Dubosq colorimeter consists of a cell of fixed path length and a cell of variable path length. By adjusting the length of the latter until the transmission through the two cells is the same. the concentration of the second solution can be inferred from that of the former. Suppose that a plantdye of concentration 25 μg dm-3 is added to the fixed cell. the length of which is 1.55 em. Then a solution of the same dye. but of unknown concentration. is added to the second cel l. It is found that the same t ransmittance is obtained when the length of the second cel l is adjusted to 1.18 em. What is the concentration of the second solution?
3.) The accuracy of a spectrophotometer is evaluated by preparing a solution of 60.06 ppm K2Cr2O7 and measuring its absorbance at a wavelength of 350 nm in a cell with a pathlength of 1.00 cm. The expected absorbance is 0.640. What is the expected molar absorptivity of K2Cr2O7 at this wavelength?
Inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) was used for the determination of cadmium using indium as an internal standard. A solution containing 2.15 ppm Cd2+ and 5.76 ppm In3+ gave signals of 19,291 and 37,190 counts for cadmium and indium, respectively. A 0.01652 g sample was dissolved in acid and quantitatively transferred to a 250.0 mL volumetric flask. A 1.00 mL aliquot of 264.5 ppm In3+ was added and the flask was diluted to volume with deionized water. ICP-OES analysis of the sample solution gave signals of 31,109 and 118,941 counts for cadmium and indium, respectively. What was concentration of the Cd2+ in the sample?
