Red dye stock solution 1.094 M
Absorbance at 500 nm 0.0311
Calibration curve y = 0.0446x
Yellow dye stock solution 2.812 M
Absorbance at 427 nm 0.0407
Calibration curve y = 0.0352x
An orange solution is prepared by mixing 4.00 mL of the yellow dye solution with 6.75 mL of red dye. The calibration curve for each color is provided.
Part 1:
(a) Determine the theoretical molar concentration of each dye in the mixture:
[Red]theoretical = 0.687 M
[Yellow]theoretical = 1.05 M
Part 2:
Using the absorbance and calibration curve for each dye, calculate the experimental molar concentration of each dye in the mixture.
[Red]experimental = M
[Yellow]experimental = M
