Chapter 3, Problem 3.49E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The trend of density of the metallic elements on moving from left to right across a period of the periodic table is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Density is defined as the ratio of mass of a substance to its volume. Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons which are also known as nucleons.

On moving from left to right in a periodic table, the atomic radii decrease. On the other hand, the atomic radii increase from top to bottom.

Using a cell of known pathlength b = 1.25115 x 10-3 cm, a water absorption spectrum was measured. The band at 1645 cm-1, assigned to the O-H bending, showed an absorbance, A, of 1.40. a) Assuming that water density is 1.00 g/mL, calculate the water molar concentration c (hint: M= mole/L) b) Calculate the molar absorptivity, a, of the 1645 cm-1 band c) The transmitted light, I, can be written as I= Ioexp(-xb), where x is the absorption coefficient (sometimes designated as alpha), Io is the input light, and b is the cell pathlength. Prove that x= (ln10)*x*c d) Calculate x for the 1645 cm-1 band
Convert 1.38 eV into wavelength (nm) and wavenumber (cm-1) (c = 2.998 x 108 m/s; h = 6.626 x 10-34 J*s).
Can you help me understand the CBC method on metal bridging by looking at this problem?
