In the process of performing a spectrophotometric determination of iron, an analyst prepares a calibration curve using a single-beam spectrophotometer. After preparing the calibration curve, the analyst drops and breaks the cuvette. The analyst acquires a new cuvette, measures the absorbance of the sample, and determines the %w/w Fe in the sample. Does the change in cuvette lead to a determinate error in the analysis

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, the change in cuvette lead to a determinate error in the analysis if the different cuvette is used for the analysis because the amount of liquid sample that is used has different volume. If both cuvette are of the same type and has no difference in their structure and size then there is error occurs in the analysis but if both cuvette are different from one another then the error will occur in the analysis. because the amount of liquid that is used has different volume.

a non redox reaction occurs when there is not a transfer of electrons. for redox reactions, which are reduction-oxidation reactions, a change in the oxidation number occurs. elements that are reduced gain electrons, and elements that are oxidized lose electrons.

explanation:

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
