1. A 25.

0-mL sample was treated with an excess of methiomeprazine and subsequently diluted
to 50.0 mL. At 480nm, the molar absorptivities of metal A (II) and metal B(III) are 5.3 x 10 3 and
3.96 x 103, respectively. At 635nm, the molar absorptivities of metal A (II) and metal B(III) are
8.1 x 102 and 1.2 x 104, respectively. Calculate the molar concentrations of metal A (II) and
metal B(III), in the sample if the diluted solution had an absorbance of 0.480 at 480 nm and
0.650 at 635 nm when measured in a 1.00-cm cell.

WRONG:
D

2. What is the absorptivity (ppm-1 cm-1) of a compound with a formula weight of 445 and molar
absorptivity of 8.455 x 103 M-1 cm-1?

WRONG:
D
(8.455x10^3) / 445 = 19000
19000 x 10^-6 = 0.019

3. An organic molecule, react with picric acid to form picrate complex, which absorb strongly at
359 nm (molar absorptivity = 1.25 × 104).  A 0.750 g of this substance was dissolved in water
and diluted to 100 mL. A 1-mL aliquot of this is diluted to 250 mL for measurement. If this final
solution exhibits an absorbance of 0.454 at 359 nm using a 1.00-cm cell, what is the formula
weight of the unknown molecule?

WRONG:
D
4. A solution containing 3.00 mg iron (as the thiocyanate complex) in 100mL was observed to
transmit 45.0% of the incident light compared to an appropriate blank. What is the absorbance
of the solution at this wavelength?

WRONG:
B

-log(0.45)=0.347
