In this question you will use the one-dimensional particles in a box model to approximate the absorption wavelength of a cyanine dye. To determine the "box-length" for the model, determine the total length along the conjugated part of the molecule (both single and double bonds) use the following bond lengths: Typical CC bond length (both single/double bond) = 0.14 nm Typical CN bond length (both single/double bond) = 0.13 nm The structure of a cyanine dye is shown below. You need to determine the wavelength of light for a cyanine dye with n=7. Consider that both nitrogens are conjugated, so consider two CN bonds when determining box length. The left-most nitrogen has two electrons (lone pair) that count towards the number of electrons in the box, but the right-most nitrogen has no lone pair, just the double-bond. Provide your answer as the wavelength of light absorbed in units of nm. R R n R R

A student uses visible spectrophotometry to determine the concentration of CoCl2(aq)CoCl2(aq) in a sample solution. First the student prepares a set of CoCl2(aq)CoCl2(aq) solutions of known concentration. Then the student uses a spectrophotometer to determine the absorbance of each of the standard solutions at a wavelength of 510nm510nm and constructs a standard curve.
