Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The formula of the complex should be determined.

Concept introduction:

In photometric titration, absorbance of the solution is measured to determine the endpoint of the titration. This is based on the theory that the absorbance of a solution is directly proportional to the concentration of analyte. A graph is plotted between absorbance versus volume of titrant added.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The molar absorptivity of the complex should be determined.

Concept introduction:

The Beer-Lambert Law is:

A=εlc

where,

A − absorbance

ε - molar absorptivity

l − length of the solution light passes through (cm)

c − concentration of solution (mol/L)

The complex formed between Cu(I) and 1,10- phenanthroline has a molar absorptivity of 7000 L cm-1 mol-1 at 435 nm, the wavelength of maximum absorption. What is the  the absorbance of a 6.17 x 10-5 M solution of the complex when measured in a 1.00-cm cell at 435 nm.
7. A solution containing the complex formed between Bi(III) and thiourea has a molar absorptivity of 9.32 x 10° L·cm-1-mol-1 at 470 nm. (a) What is the absorbance of a 6.24 x 10-5 M solution of the complex in a 1.00-cm cell? (b) What is the percent transmittance of the solution described in Part (a)? (c) What is the molarity of the complex in a solution that has the same absorbance as the solution in Part (a), but was measured in a 5.00-cm cell?
A solution containing 4000 ug Fe(III) per cubic decimeter is treated with sulfosalicylic acid to form a colored complex. Its absorbance at a given wavelength in a 0.5 cm cell is measured to be 0.68. Calculate the molar absorptivity of the complex.
