You're in lab and there's a bottle of solvent that has a faded label. You want to dispose of it properly (chemical waste is always labeled by its contents.) You know it is either diethyl ether or n-butanol, but you don't want to measure boiling points to determine which it is so you take an IR spectrum instead. Infrared Spectrum 1.0 my 08 0.6 0.2 3500 3000 2500 2000 1500 1000 500 Wavenumbers (cm-1) Based on the IR spectrum shown above, what is in the bottle? O n-butanol O diethyl ether Transmitance

Identify the spectra. All pertinent peaks must be assigned on spectrum (5-6 peaks). Label the peaks on spectrum. I have provided the correct structure in the lower left hand corner, I just need help with labeling the peaks on the spectrum to match the structure.
The concentration of a dilute aspirin solution is 0.000530 M 0.000530 M . Standard solutions of this compound were used to prepare a Beer's law plot which gives a slope of 1550.1 M −1 1550.1 M − 1 . What is the expected absorbance value for the aspirin solution?
A student collects the UV-vis spectrum shown below. Is this useable data? How can you tell? If not, what changes could the student make to get usable data? um Absorbance 3 2 1 200 300 400 500 600 700
A student creates a sports drink by dissolving 5.0 g of powder in 250 mL of water. The green colour of the drink is due to the presence Green Dye X, which has a lambdamax of 630 nm. A calibration curve (absorbance versus concentration) at lambdamax is created for varying concentrations (mM) of Green Dye X which has the equation y = 26.4x. If 1.0 mL of the sports drink is diluted to 10. mL with water, then the absorbance is measured to be 0.450, what is the mass percent of Green Dye X in the drink powder if the molecular weight is 418.4 g mol-1?

A student creates a sports drink by dissolving 5.0 g of powder in 250 mL of water. The green colour of the drink is due to the presence Green Dye X, which has a lambdamax of 630 nm. A calibration curve (absorbance versus concentration) at lambdamax is created for varying concentrations (mM) of Green Dye X which has the equation y = 26.8x. If 1.0 mL of the sports drink is diluted to 10. mL with water, then the absorbance is measured to be 0.340, what is the mass percent of Green Dye X in the drink powder if the molecular weight is 418.4 g mol-1?
