Wavelength 2 =272.9629

Absorbance of U1

0.926408

0.417250

Absorbance of U2

0.538657

0.393728

I have to create a simultaneous equation to find the concentration of benzoic acid and caffeine. How do I set it up and solve it? My values are way to high. Please help. Thank you!

Answer #1

There is no information on what U1 and U2 are, but the way to solve this problem is to determine the molar absorptivity of both caffeine and benzoic acid at the given wavelengths (you can do this by doing a calibration curve). And then, at both wavelengths you will have an absorbance given by;

Which means that you will have two equations (one with each wavelength) and two unknowns (the concentrations), so you will be able to solve it.

If you need any further help, please give me more information on what U1 and U2 are, and any other information you might have in the comments section and I'll try to help you!

Which hypothesis test do I use for this statement? It is believed that the blue team is 3 inches taller than the red team. (for my data, in one column i have their heights and team color in another column) For my null and alternative hypothesis, how do I find those? I was thinking take the difference of the means since we are testing whether one team is 3 inches taller? For example, null is u1-u2= 0, alternative is u1-u2=...
