Procedure: The procedure is as shown on page 99-101 of the ‘2nd year manual
2019-2020’.

The different solutions went from light to dark when a different amount of each
solution was added to them, the blanks being the lightest and C being the darkest.

UV-Vis of A,B,C:
Conclusion: This experiment resulted in success as the Keq values were close to the
literature value of 300. The Keq value for solution A and B came out to be 240.96,
which is particularly close to the literature value. A reason why the values, including
C (120.48) are not exactly 300 is because maybe too much water was added to the
dilutions. Another reason would be the UV-Vis my partner and I was using was
reading 1.317 for absorbance when it should have been below 1, which could of
haven an effect on the results.
