204. A sample containing ethanol and water was found to have n6 = 1.3400. Calculate theexact percentage of ethanol and water in this example. Show your work. (Hint: Solvethis mathematically. Assume a linear relationship between concentration and refractiveindex. You can make the y-intercept the refractive index of water, and use the slopeformula to find the slope. The x axis (concentration) will be from 0% ethanol to 100%ethanol. From this information, you can get the equation of the line, then plug in yournumbers from there.)

Assume that you have an “X” solution that you do not know its concentration. But you have other X solutions with known concentrations and you know X solution absorbs maximum light at 575 nm. To calculate the unknown solution concentration, you have done some spectrophotometric measurements and obtained data given below. Prepare a standard curve by using the absorbance of known concentrations (Hint: you can learn how to prepare a standard curve by using Excell from youtube). Calculate the concentration of unknown.

Below is a Beer's Law Plot for the concentration of a specific colored compound x. A solution of compound X is measured with the spectrophotometer to have an optical density of 0.60. a) What is the concentration of compound X in this solution. Answers must contain proper units for full credit. b) The absorbance of this compound was measured at 540 nm. Why was this absorbance chosen? 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 805 4 0.4 0.3 0.2 Absorbance at 540 m
The standard curve to determine the amount of betacyanin is shown below. You extracted a red pigment from a beet disc (the mass of a disc is 2 g) using 10 ml of 20% ethanol solution. You measured absorbance of the solution above the beet disc every minute for a total time of 20 minutes. The increase in absorbance was linear during a period of time from 1 min to 10 min. The absorbance at 10 min was 0.8. Calculate the amount of betacyanin extracted from 1g of a beet tissue per minute. Explain your calculations. You can use Excel or a calculator.
Besides 1H NMR, FT-IR, melting point, data for refractive index, what other information could you obtain for your compound to assess its’ purity and confirm its’ structure? How would this additional data contribute to your conclusion about the structure of the unknown compound?
1.0 ml of serum albumin (BSA) solution was precisely diluted to 100 ml with a buffer solution, and the absorbance at 280 nm was measured from this buffer solution at a distance of 1 cm from the light. The result was A=1.0. BSA is 0.1%(=0.1g/l). The absorptivity is e(0.1%)=0.667, so 1g/l solution gives an absorbance of 0.667. What was the original protein content? Report in the result unit mg/ml with an accuracy of 0.1 mg.

Consider a bi convex lens with radius of curvatures |R1| = 30 mm and |R2| = 180 mm, ct = 5 mm and glass is N-BK7. This is used as camera lens in order to image a man who is at 1 km away from the camera. We want to resolve 10 cm on his body. Assume that λ = 550 nm. Using zemax, determine the MTF value for the resolution of R = 80 lp / mm in image plane which is placed at paraxial focus.

You assay 0.5 ml of 1/2000 diluted egg white for protein, as described in the practical schedule, and the spectrophotometer reading at 595 nm is 0.6. Using the attached calibration curve(click to enlarge), calculate the concentration of protein in undiluted egg white. Give your answer in mg/ml.
A 25.0 mL aliquot was taken from a 500.0 mL sample of tonic water containing an unknown amount of quinine and diluted to a volume of 150.0 mL. At 347.5 nm, the fluorescence intensity of the diluted sample was measured as 89.3 on an arbitrary scale. Under similar conditions, a 25.0 ppm standard quinine solution had a fluorescence intensity of 173. Calculate the mass of quinine in the original tonic water sample. mass: mg * TOOLS x10
