NASA needs a solar sail for 3-unitCubeSat that will study near-Earth Asteroids. A CubeSat and Sails can weigh between 4-15-kg. This craft is supposed to sail for 2-3 years taking pictures of near-earth asteroids. It doesn’t need to travel fast but about 10-20 m/s. The sails are deployable for a set amount of time that you can arrange. The intensity of the sun is about 1.3 kW/m2. You are to design the sail, you can choose the metallic coating, the shape of the sails and the dimensions to construct it. Recall that there is a reflection coefficient in radiation pressure, 1 for full absorption and 2 for full reflection.

1. You may have already noticed that the shape of your spectrophotometric titration curve is quite different than the shapes of the potentiometric titration curves which you have constructed in earlier experiments. Why? (HINT: Think about the mathematical relationships between pH and concentration and absorbance and concentration . . .).
2. When performing a potentiometric titration it is very important to make a large number of measurements near the endpoint, while for a spectrophotometric titration one actually ignores the measurements obtained near the endpoint. Explain.
3. In order for a photometric method to be used for a titration, what requirement(s) must be met by the titration system?
