A student determined the absorption spectrum of a standard solution and then repeated the process for an unknown. What is the concentration of the unknown #1 solution? Explain your method and state the wavelength used.

The student set the wavelength to 460 nm and ran the unknown #2, which gave an absorbance of 0.59. Calculate the concentration of unknown #2. Explain your method. Why did this work? The determinations above are based on a single-point calibration, which was used in the equilibrium constant determination. When performing a single-point calibration, a very important assumption is being made. Explain this assumption. To analyze unknown #2 at a wavelength of 500 nm, what could be done to the sample to lower the absorbance?66. Consider the determination of the equilibrium constant for the reaction given below. Fe+++ + SCN- = Fe(SCN)++ K = 140 colorless colorless orange The plot shows the behavior of the absorbance as the initial iron concentration, (Fe+++)o, is increased with the (SCN-)o remaining constant as in the experiment.

We assume that all the SCN- is tied up in the complex. Or the following equation must hold: (SCN-)o = (Fe(SCN)++) How does the absorbance behave as the concentration of the initial iron concentration, (Fe+++)o, is increased? If you were to extend the graph to higher initial iron concentration, how would it behave? Explain or illustrate on the graph. If you used an initial concentration of 0.20M Fe+3, what would the absorbance
