Take data from your table and plot protein concentration in mg/ml vs. absorbance. Draw the best fit line
through your points. Plot the unknown with a different color
and show extrapolation to determine protein concentration (see last slide lab unit). Complete the graph using Microsoft insert shapes (or manually graph, scan your work and embed image into report).

To determine the amount of copper and the identity of the copper compound in the unknown sample, a 100-mL solution containing 120.8 mg of the sample was initially prepared. Then, 5.00 mL of this solution was pipetted and diluted with deionized water in another 100-mL volumetric flask. The absorbance of this diluted solution was determined three times at the analytical wavelength. The data is in the table below.

The maximum number of spectra that can be recorded per second by ToF-MS is
limited by the time taken by the slowest ions to go from the source to the detector. If
the slowest ion took 45.6 microsecond to travel, at what frequency could you record
spectra if a new extraction cycle were begun each time this heaviest ion reached the
detector?

Which of the the following is false regarding spectrophotometry?
A. The concentration of a sample increases with path length of the curvette or sample holder since the absorbance increases
B. when absorbance increases, transmittance decreases
C.The absorbance coefficient depend on wavelength of light and type of sample.
arrow_forward
Why is it necessary to run a blank before measuring the absorbance of a sample?
To allow the lamp and electronics of the spectrophotometer to warm up before taking the sample absorbance reading.
So that scattered light will be filtered before hitting the photodetector.
To account for the absorbance caused by the cuvette and the solvent
To account for the absorbance caused by the cuvette alone .

For my lab I had to find the unknown concentration of a solution. I found wavelength max of the potassium chromate. Then used that max to find the absorbtion for my sample dilutions. Based on my attached graph. Is my unknown concentration # making sense? Or did I make an error with the absorbance I wrote down in the lab. I did my calculations when I got home. They are correct, but my unknown concentration amount doesn't look like it will even be on the graph. Or am I wrong. Please advise and explain. Thank you

This question uses the same data as the previous question. The calibration curve is a graph of absorbance versus concentration. Absorbance is a dimensionless quantity. The slope of the calibration curve is m = 2.24 x 10^4 M^-1. Find the concentration detection limit.

Your calibration curve will be generated using absorbance and concentration data. However, you collected %Transmittance data in the lab. Could you use a plot of %Transmittance versus concentration to generate a calibration curve? Why or why not?

QUESTION 4
4. The main difference between "in-time" and "in-space" spectrophotometer design is that the former uses timed
mirrors to alternate measurements between reference and sample using the same detector, while in-space uses a
beamsplitter to send light through a different path to the same detector which is able to retrieve the signal using lock-
in amplification.
A. False
B. True

Question 3
Why is it necessary to run a blank before measuring the absorbance of a sample?
