You are required to analyze the semiconductor wastewater samples containing with cadmium. A sample solution was prepared by filtering the wastewater samples and store it in the plastic bottles. i) Suggest ONE (1) spectroscopic instrument that can determine the cadmium in the wastewater samples. Justify your answer. ii) Based on your answer in question (a) i), explain the principles of instrument that you had suggested.

Please help me answer this question, thank you! Based on the field of interest (Civil Engineering), choose a particular equipment or device, enumerate all metals and metal alloys present in it, and explain the function of each.
An experiment is set up to determine the best voltage for electroplating tin onto iron. Iron plates are suspended, at constant temperature, in an electrolyte solution and wired through a rectifier. Different voltages will be set on the rectifier and then after a set amount of time, the plates removed and the thickness of the layer of tin measured with calipers. One iron plate will be placed in the electrolyte solution with no voltage passing through it, and one plate will be placed in with the maximum voltage the rectifier can produce. Please identify,in this experiment,1) The Independent Variable 2) The Dependent Variable 3) The Positive Control 4) The Negative Control 5) Constants
Hydrogen peroxide solutions can easily be decomposed by dust, trace amounts of metals or light. It istherefore necessary to periodically determine the purity of the peroxide solutions.This can be done via a redox titration as follows: The density of a particular surgical grade hydrogen peroxide solution is 1.11g.cm-3. Exactly 10 mL of this solution was pipetted and quantitatively transferred, along with a sufficientamount of a dilute sulphuric acid solution, into a 250.00 mL volumetric flask and made up to the mark. A 25.00 mL portion of this diluted solution is pipetted into a conical flask, and titrated with a0.372 M KMnO4 solution. The endpoint of the titration is determined when the colourless solution in the conical flask turns apersistent bright pink due to the presence of excess permanganate ions. The average titration value is 26.20 mL of the KMnO4 solution 1.Determine the percentage of the hydrogen peroxide in the solution sample.2.
