Ligand X forms a complex with both cobalt and copper, each of which has a maximum absorbance at 510 nm and 645 nm.
respectively. A 0.243 g sample containing cobalt and copper was dissolved and diluted to a volume of 100.0 mL. A solution
containing ligand X was added to a 50.0 mL aliquot of the sample solution and diluted to a final volume of 100.0 mL. The
measured absorbance of the unknown solution was 0.503 at 510 nm and 0.368 at 645 nm, when measured with a 1.00 cm cell.
The molar absorptivities of the cobalt and copper complexes at each wavelength are shown in the table.
