Chapter 18, Problem 18.18P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentration of the compound in the cuvet has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Beer-lambert law:

$\begin{array}{l}\text{A}\text{=}\text{-}\text{log}\frac{\text{P}}{{\text{P}}_{\text{o}}}\text{=}\text{εcb}\\ \text{where,}\\ \text{A}\text{-}\text{absorbance}\\ {\text{P}}_{\text{o}}\text{-}\text{incident}\text{irradiance}\text{and}\text{P}\text{-}\text{transmitted}\text{irradiance}\\ \text{ε}\text{-}\text{molar}\text{absorptivity}\\ \text{c-}\text{concentration}\text{and}\text{b}\text{-}\text{pathlength}\text{.}\end{array}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentration of the compound in the $\text{5}\text{mL}$ flask has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Beer-lambert law:

$\begin{array}{l}\text{A}\text{=}\text{-}\text{log}\frac{\text{P}}{{\text{P}}_{\text{o}}}\text{=}\text{εcb}\\ \text{where,}\\ \text{A}\text{-}\text{absorbance}\\ {\text{P}}_{\text{o}}\text{-}\text{incident}\text{irradiance}\text{and}\text{P}\text{-}\text{transmitted}\text{irradiance}\\ \text{ε}\text{-}\text{molar}\text{absorptivity}\\ \text{c-}\text{concentration}\text{and}\text{b}\text{-}\text{pathlength}\text{.}\end{array}$

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass (in milligrams) of the compound were used to make $\text{5}\text{mL}$ solution has to be calculated.
