The spectrometric measurement of calibration solution and unknown should be measured at the same time. Give reason(s) for this?

Expert Solution

Any impurities present in solvent [which is chosen to dissolve the unknown] can be substracted from blank and if we allow the some time gap between two measurements then extended time solution will lose solvent by a process called evaporation (if solvent has low boiling point near to room temperature or below), this effects its concentration of the unknown solution causing large errors during acquisition of spectrum.

All measurements must be peformed under same temperature, same concentration and same pressure. (i.e at room temperature).

Hope this helped you!

Use the data below to generate a calibration curve for an unknown zinc compound. In order to determine the % zinc in the compound, a solution was made with 1.75 g of the compound with a total volume of 50.0 mL. The absorbance of this solution was measured at 1.16. Assuming zinc is the only chemical species contributing to the absorbance, calculate the % zinc in the unknown compound. Concentration (M) Absorbance 0.025 0.13 0.070 0.41 0.13 0.87 0.16 1.12...

A solution of an unknown acid is prepared by dissolving 0.250 g of the unknown in water to produce a total volume of 100.0 mL. Half of this solution is titrated to a phenolphthalein endpoint, requiring 12.2 mL of 0.0988 M KOH solution. The titrated solution is re-combined with the other half of the un-titrated acid and the pH of the resulting solution is measured to be 4.02. What is are the Ka value for the acid and the molar...
