(a)
Interpretation:
The density of solution I2 is 0.794gm/cm3 which is present in ethanol. Transmission of 33.2% of the radiation from a Mo Ka is done by using a layer of 1.50 cm. Mass absorption coefficient are 39.2,0.70, 0.00, 1.50 for I, C, H and O respectively. Percentage of I2 present in ethanol is to be determined, neglecting the absorption by alcohol.

- The molar absorption coefficient of a substance dissolved in hexane is known to be 723 dm3 mol−1 cm−1 at 260 nm. Calculate the percentage reduction in intensity when ultraviolet radiation of that wavelength passes through 2.50 mm of a solution of concentration 4.25 mmol dm−3.arrow_forwardThe molar absorption coefficient of a solute at 540 nm is 386 dm3 mol−1 cm−1.

- To determine the content of Pb in a canned sausage, 5.00 g were weighed and after adequate treatment they were gauged to a volume of 100 mL, from there an aliquot of 2 mL was taken and brought to a volume of 250 mL. The readings of a series and of the sample were taken in an Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer, recording the following data: mg Pb/mL 0 1 2 3 4 Sample Absorbance 0.00 0.15 0.29 0.44 0.58 0.38 What is the% Pb in canned sausage?arrow_forwardTell me the bonds (e.g. C=O, C-O) and range of wavelength numbers (cm-1) present in Nujol mull?arrow_forwardExactly 10.00-mL aliquots of a solution containing phenobarbital were measured into 50.00-mL volumetric flasks and made basic with KOH. The following volumes of a standard solution of phenobarbital containing 2.000μg/mL of phenobarbital were then introduced into each flask and the mixture was diluted to volume: 0.000, 0.500, 1.00, 1.50, 2.00 mL.
