In an analytical laboratory a chemical compound namely Paracetamol (151.163 g/mol) is determined in a sample. A sample weighing 0.0295 g was dissolved in a solvent and diluted the solution to 1 L. The solution has λ max at 243 nm (ε=2.6×104 cm-1 mol-1 L). The solution exhibits an absorbance of 0.638 in a 2 cm cell.
Calculate the percentage paracetamol in the sample.
Caffeine, C8H10O2N4 H2O (MW = 212.2 g/mol) has been shown to have an average absorbance of 0.644 for a concentration of 1.783 mg per 100 mL at 272 nm. A sample of 3.658 g of a soluble coffee product was mixed with water to a volume of 500 mL and a 25 mL aliquot was transferred to a flask containing 25 mL of 0.1 M H2SO4. This was subjected to the prescribed clarification treatment and made up to 500 mL. A portion of this treated solution showed an absorbance of 0.666 at 272 nm. Assumbe b = 1.0 cm.
Calculate the % caffeine (w/w) in the sample.
Suppose that a solution has an absorbance of 0.250 at a wavelength of 450 nm. If the concentration of the solution is 22 μM, what is the value of the molar absorptivity? The data were taken with a standard 1-cm cuvette.
