Various amounts of activated carbon were added to a ?xed amount of raw cane sugar solution (48 wt% sucrose in water) at 80°C. A colorimeter was used to measure the color of the solutions, R, which is proportional to the concentration of trace unknown impurities in the solution. The following data were obtained (adapted from the reference in Footnote 20, p. 652):
kg carbon/kg dry sucrose | 0 | 0.005 | 0.010 | 0.015 | 0.020 | 0.030 |
R (color units/kg sucrose) | 20.0 | 10.6 | 6.0 | 3.4 | 2.0 | 1.0 |
The reduction in color units is a measure of the mass of impurities (the adsorbate) adsorbed on the carbon (the adsorbent).

- 4.0g of potassium hydrogen tartrate was added to 300mL distilled water. The temperature of the solution is 23.1C. The liquid was filtered and 50mL of the filtered solution was transferred to 250mL beaker, two drops of phenolpthalein was added to the 250mL beaker. The concentration of NaOH is 1.0 M that is filled in the 2mL graduate pipette, single drops of NaOH was added to the 250mL beaker until the solution turns pink and the potassium hydrogen tartrate reach the endpoint. The datd of four trials was collected. Please answer the following questions 4) calculate ksp for potassium hydrogen tartrate for each trial and average ksp for thr experiment 5) calculate the percent error in you value of ksp using reference that is found as the theoretical value. 6) why was the temperature of the saturated solution recorded?arrow_forwardThe homogeneity of the chloride level in a water sample from a lake was tested by analyzing por- tions drawn from the top and from near the bottom of the lake, with the following results in ppm CI: Top 26.30 Bottom 26.22 26.43 26.32 26.28 26.20 26.19 26.11 26.49 26.42 (a) Apply the i test at the 95% confidence level to determine if the means are different. (b) Now use the paired / test and determine whether there is a significant difference between the top and bottom values at the 95% confidence level.
