You wish to quantify your favourite compound in an experimental solution using
spectrophotometry. First, you use standard solutions of your favourite compound to
collect the following standard curve data. Calculate the slope of the line of best fit
to two decimal places, and enter it in the box below the table.

- An investigation was set up to determine the effect of various surfaces on the amount of time it takes a snail to move between two points. A ramp was made, covered with a piece of glass, and placed on a table at a 25-degree angle. Two lines, 15 centimeters apart, were drawn on the glass. A snail was placed on the upper line, and a stopwatch was used to measure the 2) amount of time it took the snail to move to the lower line. The results were recorded in a data table. The investigation was repeated using sandpaper and cardboard on the surface of the ramp. What must be done to show that the results of this investigation are valid? A) The ramp must be replaced with a log found in the habitat of the snail. B) The angle of the ramp must be increased to 35 degrees. C) The investigation must be repeated several times. D) The times in the data table must be averaged.arrow_forwardsee image belowarrow_forwardFurosemide is packaged as 10 mg/mL.
