The amount of caffeine in an analgesic tablet was determined by HPLC using a normal calibration curve. Standard solutions of caffeine were prepared and analyzed using a 10-uL fixed-volume injection loop. Results for the standards are summarized in the following table. Concentration, ppm 50.0 Peak Area 8 354 100.0 16 925 150.0 25 218 200.0 33 584 250.0 42 002 The sample was prepared by placing a single-analgesic tablet in a small beaker and adding 10 mL of methanol. After allowing the sample to dissolve, the contents of the beaker, including the insoluble binder, were quantitatively transferred to a 25-mL volumetric flask and diluted to volume with methanol. The sample was then filtered, and a l.00-mL aliquot was transferred to a 10-mL volumetric flask and diluted to volume with methanol. When analyzed by HPLC, the signal for the caffeine was found to be 21 469. Report the parts per million of caffeine in the analgesic tablet.

A solution of volume 1 mL, containing an equal parts mixture (by weight) of aspirin and paracetamol (acetaminophen), was analysed by HPLC, displaying peaks at retention times 1.5 mins (area integration 1500) and 2.0 mins (area integration 2500). An unknown solution, also volume 1 mL, was analysed under the same conditions and, among a number of other peaks, there was one at 2.0 mins (area integration 4000). (i) How can the 2.0 min peak in the unknown sample be confirmed as paracetamol? (ii) In a subsequent analysis, 5.0 mg of aspirin was dissolved in the unknown solution and an extra peak appeared in the HPLC at 1.5 mins (area integration 2000). Assuming the 2.0 min peak confirmed as paracetamol, determine its concentration (g L-¹) in the unknown sample and estimate the error in the determination.

Tonic water (20.0 mL) was added into each of two volumetric flasks (100 mL). The first flask was made up to volume with deionised water and produced an absorbance of 0.200. To the second flask was added an aliquot (20.0 mL) of a quinine standard solution (20.0 ppm) and after being made up to volume this produced an absorbance of 0.400. What is the concentration of quinine in the tonic water? a. 8.00 ppm b. 800 ppm С. 40.0 ppm d. 400 ppm е. 20.0 ppm
6.0 mL of cyclohexanol, 8 mL of 85% phosphoric acid, and 10 drops of sulfuric acid are added to a 50-mL round-bottom flask with boiling chips, and the mixture is distilled into an ice-cooled receiver. The distillate is in the form of a colorless bi-phasic mixture. The cyclohexene upper layer is removed from the water layer, and dried over anhydrous calcium chloride. Isolated is cyclohexene as a clear and colorless foul-smelling liquid. Weighing data is given below. Gross mass: 51.24 g Tare mass: 48.04 g Product mass: 3.2g Question: Calculate the theoretical mass of the cyclohexene product, bearing in mind that the cyclohexanol starting material was measured by volume, not by mass (so you must use the density of cyclohexanol to convert milliliters to grams, before calculating the number of moles). Calculate the percent yield of cyclohexene obtained.
