A 50.0 mL juice extract is colorimetrically assayed using Nelson's test. One milliliter (1.00 mL) of the solution and the standard glucose solution (concentration: 1mg/mL) were treated with freshly prepared Nelson's reagent and arsenomolybdate reagent and then diluted to 10.0 mL separately in properly labeled test tubes. Absorbance at 480 nm for the standard is 1.702 and for the sample, 0.926. A. What is the principle behind the assay? B. Calculate the concentration of the reducing sugar in the 50.0 mL sample in mg/mL. Apply Beer-Lambert's law: A=ɛbc.

Substance P has an extinction coefficient of 72.22 mM-1cm-1 at 420nm. 2 μl of Substance P was added to 998 μl water and the Absorbance at 420nm was 0.820. Calculate the mM concentration of the original Substance P solution
2) In an experiment similar to ours, an FeSCN2+ standard curve was prepared (pictured below) and used to extrapolate the FeSCN²+ concentrations from three solutions of unknown [FeSCN²+] that were prepared at the same time. The standard curve was found to have a slope of 1950 M¹ and the three solutions of unknown [FeSCN²+] were found to have absorbances of 0.196, 0.281 and 0.365. Based on these data, what was the [FeSCN2+] in each solution? Absorbance at 460 nm [FeSCN²*] (M)

An unknown amount of a compound with a molecular mass of 270.57 g/mol is dissolved in a 10 mL volumetric flask. A 1.00 mL aliquot of this solution is transferred to a 25 mL volumetric flask, and enough water is added to dilute to the mark. The absorbance of this diluted solution at 355 nm is 0.495 in a 1.000 cm cuvette. The molar absorptivity for this compound at 355 nm is €355 = 6149 M-¹cm-¹. What is the concentration of the compound in the cuvette? concentration: What is the concentration of the compound in the 10 ml flask? concentration: How many milligrams of compound were used to make the 10 mL solution? mass: M M mg
