Question
You are assigned to measure the amount of salicylic acid in a wart remover
solution. Salicylate ion reacts with an Fe³+ ion to form a complex ion that
strongly absorbs light at 528 nm. You prepare standard solutions of known
salicylate concentration. You add 5.00 mL of 0.025 M FeCl3 to each standard
solution and dilute each solution to a total of 10.00 mL. The concentration of
salicylate in each solution is given in the table below. You then measure the
absorbance of each standard solution. The data are shown below.
