Please answer question 2 and show all work. 

Questions 2-4 refer to the absorption spectrum for a 0.80 M solution of metal M2+ and a
calibration curve for the metal M2 collected in a 1.5 cm cuvette, shown in Figures 2
and 3.

Figure 3. Calibration curve for M2+
2. At what wavelength was the calibration curve obtained? Use the data from both
graphs to explain your choice.
3. Would the value of the molar absorptivity (a) be greater, lesser or equal for M for the
absorbance of light at 400. nm vs. 650. nm. Use the data from Figure 2 to explain
your choice.
4. Using the calibration curve in Figure 3: A sample of a solution of unknown
concentration of M2 has an absorbance reading that is "off scale" because the
absorbance was measured to be above 0.8. You dilute this sample by adding 5.0 mL
of water to 1.0 mL of the solution of M2*. The absorbance of the diluted solution was
determined to be 0.35 at the same wavelength used for the calibration curve. What is
the concentration of M2, in M, of the original undiluted sample?
