Erioglucine is a bluecolored dye that absorbs its complementary color, red, in aqueous solution around 645 nm. Unfortunately, the local distilled water supply is consistently contaminated with a trace amount of a metal cation that also absorbs 645 nm light. Suppose then, a control sample of 0.0552 M erioglucine (aq; same water supply) has an absorbance of 0.331 and that a distilled water sample in a similar cuvette has an absorbance of 0.019. Determine the concentration of an erioglucine (aq) sample (same water supply) that has an absorbance of 0.237. Concentration: _____ M

Professor Van Eggmon thinks that dissolving eggshells at 74.1o F is easier than cracking eggs. The shells are made of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), which reacts with acetic acid (CH3COOH) to form carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and calcium acetate (Ca(CH3COO)2). The feed to the egg dissolver (reactor) contains 46.2 mol/s calcium carbonate and 352 mol/s dilute acetic acid solution (4.15 mol% acetic acid and the balance water). The conversion of acetic acid is 69.4%. a. (5 points) Draw and label a process flow diagram. Number the streams and clearly label the components in each stream. b. (3 points) Write the limiting reactant in the box. c. (34 points) Determine the component flow rates (mol/s) exiting the reactor. d. (3 points) Find the temperature in Kelvin (K). e. (3 points) The professor’s children state that the feed flow rate of CaCO3 of 9.43 x 107 g/day. Compared to the original operating conditions, the feed flow rate of CaCO3 will (circle one): INCREASE DECREASE STAY THE SAME

You are given a sample that has 1.3 mg/ml of purified protein. The molecular weight is 37,000 Daltons.
a) the absorbance in a 1cm cuvette is 0.93. calculate the molar extinction coefficient. Be sure to express your answer with correct units.
b)also calculate the extinction coefficient for concentration units of mg/ml, i.e. with units of cm-1 (mg/ml)-1
c) The sample is actually contaminated with 0.01 mg/ml DNA, but the protein concentration, 1.3 mg/ml is correct. explain how the contaminating DNA will affect your estimate of the extinction coefficient?
d) suggest a way in chich you could salvage this situation without doing any more experiments. that is, explain how you could estimate the extinction coefficient in spite of teh DNA contamination. what key inormation would you need to look up on the internet or in the library? carefully explain how you would calculate the extinction coefficient.
this is what I have done so far:
a) A=CLε
ε=0.93/(1.3mg/ml)*1cm
=.715(mg/ml)-1Cm-1
=.715(cm-1) (ml/mg)(1L/1000ml)(1000mg/g)(37000g/mol)=26469(L/mol)=26469M-1cm-1
b) 26469M-1cm-1=26469cm-1(L/mol)(1000ml/L)(1mol/37000g)(1g/1000mg)=.715(ml/mg)cm-1=.715(mg/ml)-1cm-1
c) this would increase the absorbance, so it would make the extinction coefficient too high
d) ?
