- After creating her standard curve for absorption versus the concentration (M) of FD&C Red 40 and processing her data, Sally found that her drinking strength Kool-Aid sample had a concentration of 4.692 x 10–5 M. If 0.132 grams of Kool-Aid powder was used to prepare an 8-fl oz cup of her assigned flavor, what is the percent by mass of FD&C Red 40 in her Kool-aid powder? Report your answer as a percentage with two places after the decimal. Do not include the percentage sign in your answer. Pay attention to units. You are trying to find the mass percentage of red dye, so you need to know each variable in the equation in Appendix B. Note that the percent by mass equation should be multiplied by 100. There may be some useful conversion factors in the experimental procedure.arrow_forwardYou plot A vs Conc (mg/mL) for a set of 5 standards in mg/mL and get the equation for the line as 0.962=0.310x+0.315. Solve for x and report the results with correct units and sig-figs. Is this question really just as simple as solving for x? I feel like I'm missing something here...arrow_forward(When answering this problem, report the answer with the appropriate number of significant figures. When entering units, use proper abbreviated units with proper capitalization.)A beverage drink mix sample is prepared by mixing a packet of beverage powder in a gallon (3.78 L) of water. A sample for analysis is prepared by diluting 10.00 mL of this solution in a 50.0 mL volumetric flask. When measured using a colorimeter, this diluted solution has an absorbance of (3.49x10^-1). The calibration curve for the experiment yielded a linear fit of y = 21655x+(1.7950x10^-2) and an R2 value of 0.9911. Determine the molar concentration of food dye in the analyzed sample. Hint: The answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.arrow_forward
- Suppose the absorbance of a 0.084 M solution of nickel(II) nitrate in water is measured to be 0.305 in a cuvette with a path length of 1.00 cm.

The solution is then neutralized, transferred into a 250 mL volumetric flask and filled to the calibration mark. If 0.9809 g of Zn was weighed using an electronic balance with a relative uncertainty of ± 0.01 % and the 250 mL volumetric flask has a known relative uncertainty of ± 0.06 %, what would be the absolute uncertainty of the concentration of the solution? The molecular weight of the zinc pellets is 65.39 g/molarrow_forward1. Several students performed this experiment without paying adequate attention to the details of the procedure. Briefly explain what effect each of the following procedural hanges would have on the size of the volume- to- temperature ratio calculated by the students. (a) One student failed to replenish the boiling water in the boiling- water bath as the flask was being heated. At the end of the 6 min of heating, the boiling water in the bath was only in contact with the lower portion of the flask. (b) Following the proper heating of the flask in the boiling water, a student removed the flask from the boiling- water bath but only partially immersed the flask in the ice-water bath during the cooling period. (c) A student neglected to close the pinch clamp before removing the flask from the boiling water bath and immersing it in the ice-water bath. (d) One student neglected to measure the volume of the flask before leaving the laboratory. Because the procedure called for a 125-mL…arrow_forward
