I basically understand the principle of the spectrophotometers use. It is most often talked about in terms of one specific solute. If you have a mixture of multiple types of sugar such as in the boiling of starch/ various grains breaking them into a fermentable sugar how do I get a idea of how much sugar is in the solution measured? Do I have to find the wavelength for each know sugar In question or can related absorbance to increase overall starch converted now to some sugar?

@OldSchoolChemistry

Hi R. Finch, if I’m understanding correctly you have a mixture and want to identify the concentration of one solute. Create a beer lambert plot for that one solute based on lambda max ( maximum absorption of that sample). Then run the sample at the same wavelength to determine concentration of that specific solute in the sample. I hope that helps. Please subscribe if you haven’t already.

Hi! Transmittance is how much light passes through a substance. It is the ratio of the amount of light that got through over the initial amount of light that was put in. Absorbance is how much light is absorbed. The mathematical relationship is: Abs= -log T.

@OldSchoolChemistry

Жыл бұрын

Hi Doniadarmly, Honestly, I am not sure. Lambda max for wavelength gives you the maximum asborption at a particular wavelength for a specific substance. To determine molar absorptivity using the formula you would need the absorbance, concentration, and length of the cuvette. I hope that can at least point you in the right direction. It would be advisable to talk to your professor. Thanks!

Hello there. Help with a question ? A compound absorb light in 227 nm. The standard curve calibration for the compound is Abs = 372x + 0,6432 which the concentration is g/100mL. The technique was standard addition method from fluoxetine hydrochloride (C17H18F3NO.HCl - molar mass = 345,79 g/mol). So determine the concentration in mol/L in the analysed solution. Show all calcs progression.

Hi Fabio, you would have put the analyzed sample in the spectrophotometer machine and gotten an absorbence reading. Take the absorbency value of the sample and plug it into your equation as Abs. Then solve for x which is the molarity of the solution. Good luck!

@@OldSchoolChemistry Hello thanks for your return. It's an exercise question i don't have equipment to use. Let me post the full question: Standard addition is an analytical technique of extreme importance to an analyst, as it eliminates the interfering effect in most determinations. Fluoxetine is widely used as fluoxetine hydrochloride, also known as Prozac®. This is indicated in the treatment of depression, associated or not with anxiety. This compound absorbs ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 227 nm. It has in its structure a stereocenter, being a chiral drug. It is known that only the (R) -fluoxetine isomer has activity, while the other enantiomer has no pharmacological action and there is no evidence of toxicity to the organism. In an industry, when performing the Fluoxetine analysis, the following analytical calibration curve was obtained, in which the concentration is in g / 100 mL: Abs = 372 CFluoxetine + 0.6432. Knowing the analysis was performed according to the standard addition technique and that the molar mass of fluoxetine hydrochloride (C17H18F3NO.HCl) is 345.79 g / mol. Determine the mol / L concentration in the analyzed solution.

Hi Fabio, I am missing something. You need the absorbance of the sample to calculate the g/100ml concentration which is x in the equation. Once you have that you can use molar mass to cover it to molarity. I’m sorry I could not be more helpful! I would ask your professor how you determine the absorbance in this problem. Thanks!

Why was the sample cooled to room temperature before measuring the absorbance?

@OldSchoolChemistry

3 жыл бұрын

Hi Zainab, in my example in the video students simply diluted a stock solution of copper (II) sulfate. This was done at room temperature for each concentration so temperature was not a variable. Absorbance can be used as an experimental technique when running experiments. It is possible a professor would ask you to run samples of solutions at different temperatures to identify concentrations impacted by the rate of the reaction. This would be a very specific request. Most absorbance labs and Beer Lambert plots are run to identify the concentration of an unknown substance. Temperature will be constant in this type of experiment. Rate can also be determined with absorbance labs. This is focusing on concentration versus time. My guess would be the temperature must be at room temperature to serve as a constant and not a variable. I hope that helps!

@OldSchoolChemistry

Hi Edouarda, there are 3 ways to find concentration. One, you need at least 2 absorbance values and one concentration value to calculate an unknown concentration. Set the values up as a ratio and solve for the unknown. Two, look at beer lambert graph. Match the given absorbency to the corresponding concentration. Third, use the formula Abs=abc. You need Abs,a,b and solve for c which is concentration. Your question will fall in one of those categories. I hope it goes well!!
