3.) The following Beer's Law calibration plot was collected at 391.9 nm using the five mixtures listed above. The trendline equation was y = 4617.1x. A saturated solution of lead(II) chromate had an absorbance of 0.0025. Calculate its solubility, in molarity. Molar Solubility of PbCrO4: x 107 M ABSORBANCE VS CHROMATE CONCENTRATION AT 391.9 NM 1.40 1.20 y = 4617.1x R-0.9972 1.00 0.80 0.60 0.40 0.20 0.00 C 0.00005 0.0001 0.00015 0.0002 0.00025 0.0003 Chromate concentration (mol.L)
TLC was used to compare the solubility of two compounds A and B in a solvent system (acetic acid, methanol, H2O). The distances that solvent has moved in the silica gel TLC was 12 cm. and for the compounds were 2 and 8 cm respectively. (a) Calculate the Rf values and which compound is more soluble and which one is more polar. (b) What are the factors affecting the Rf value
A 36.0 mg sample of an organic compound (molar mass = 84.0 g/mol) is dissolved in 10.0 mL of water. This aqueous solution is extracted with 5.0 mL of hexane. Separation and analysis of the aqueous phase shows that it now contains 12.0 mg of the organic compound. Calculate the partition coefficient for the compound between hexane and water (Kphexane/water). Your answer should reflect the proper number of significant figures.
