(a)
Interpretation:
The concentration of isoprene in
Concept introduction:
The Lambert-Beer law says that the material absorbance is dependent upon the factors such as thickness of the sample and the concentration of the solution. According to the law, the absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration as well as the thickness of the sample. It also tells the relation between the intensity of light and the absorption by the material.

Interpretation:
The extinction coefficient of isoprene at

- Seawater was spiked with phosphate to achieve a quantifiable range of phosphate concentrations by the spectrophotometer. What components of the spectrophotometer or sample preparation could be changed that would improve detection limits?arrow_forwardSally obtains a standard calibration curve for their assigned food dye by plotting absorbance versus concentration (in M) of known solutions and finds the following slope and intercept: y = 1.646x + 0.026 Note: Copying and/or posting this or other questions without the express written permission from Dr. Burke and the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry at the University of Delaware is a violation of intellectual property copyright law. Sally finds that her original Kool-aid sample is too concentrated, so they dilute it by transferring 13.00 mL of the original Kool-aid sample into a new container and diluting to a total volume of 37.00 mL. If the absorbance of the dilute Kool-aid sample at the appropriate wavelength for their assigned dye is 0.950, determine the concentration (in M) of the assigned food dye in the original Kool-aid sample. Report your answer with three places after the decimal.arrow_forwardWhat is the NMR Spectra for C6H10O2 and what is the chemical formula for the compund?arrow_forward
