One of the major limitations of Beer's Law is that it only explains the behavior of dilute solutions, or in other words, it only applies to solutions with a concentration lower than 0.1M. Because of this, does it mean that we cannot analyze samples with concentrations greater than 0.1M? Why, or why not? We cannot, because Beer's Law will not apply and therefore, we will not be able to calculate the concentration of the A sample B) We cannot, because doing so would damage the instrument We can, but we must first dilute the sample to a concentration lower than 0.1 M We can, we just have to accept that the results will not be as reliable

In your first task, you are required to prepare a 100 mL solution of sodium bicarbonate at a concentration of 0.50 M. Complete the following table and calculate the mass of sodium bicarbonate needed to prepare this solution. Molecular weight of sodium bicarbonate Required final concentration Required final volume Amount of sodium bicarbonate needed to make 1 L at 0.5 M Amount of sodium bicarbonate needed to make 100 mL at 0.5 M Mass (g) = Amount (mol) × Molecular Weight (g/mol) Value 84.01 Now that you know the amount of sodium bicarbonate in mol needed to make your solution, you can convert this value into the mass by using the molecular weight of the compound. The following equation may be helpful: Mass of sodium bicarbonate needed to make 100 mL at 0.5 M Units g/mol M (mol/L) L mol mol g In the 100 mL 0.5 M solution, how many molecules of sodium bicarbonate have been added. Hint - In 1 mole there are 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.
