A student has an unknown sample of solution X. This solution is placed in a 1.00 cm wide cuvet and inserted into the spectrometer, producing an absorbance reading of 0.275 at a wavelength of 525.0 nm. What is the concentration of solution X in the unknown sample

The concentration of the sample is 3.564x10⁻³M.

Explanation:

Using Lambert-Beer law, absorbance of a sample is directely proportional to its concentration.

The general graph of the absorbance of the standards with different concentrations is:

Y = 75.9X + 0.0045

R² = 0.9946

Where Y is the absorbance of the sample and X its concentration in mole/L.

If a solution has an absorbance of 0.275:

0.275 = 75.9X + 0.0045

0.2705 = 75.9X

3.564x10⁻³M = X → The concentration of the sample.

neutrons are in the middle of the atom and the electrons, which are much smaller.
