what is the purpose of today's lab? (Lab: analysis of copper in brass sample) - correct answers to
calculate the percentage of copper present in a brass sample by using a spectrophotometer.
what type of elements can you find in a brass sample?(Lab: analysis of copper in brass sample) - correct
answers tin, lead, copper and zinc
How is the concentration of copper (II) ions going to be determined in today's experiment? (Lab: analysis
of copper in brass sample) - correct answers the molarity of Cu"^^ present will be deter mined
spectrophotometrically using the Bausch & Lomb Spectronic 20.
Define Molarity.
What is the formula for Molarity? (Lab: analysis of copper in brass sample) - correct answers M=
mol/volume in Liters
Molarity measures the concentration of a given substance. It consists of the amount of moles divided by
the volume of the solution given in liters.
What is the wavelength that you will be using to measure the absorption of Cu2+ ions? - correct answers
620 micrometers (electromagnetic waves)
What is the purpose of today's experiment? Do not just state the title of the experiment but try to
explain in your own words what you will be doing in today's lab (Lab: intro. to qual. analysis: CATIONS) -
correct answers The purpose is to test our observational skills when working with elements in reactions
and identifying which solutions are which by testing their solubility and reactivity.
Why are confirmatory tests necessary in identifying ions? (Lab: intro. to qual. analysis: CATIONS) -
correct answers They help distinguish between cations/anions that have similar chemical properties.
