| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| %Error | accuracy |
| % RSD | precision |
| accuracy | close to true value |
| precision | reproducibility |
| systematic error | shifts in one direction, accuracy, instrumental, method, personal |
| random error | scattered, precision, both directions |
| gross error | human error |
| n | sample population |
| N | population |
| % RSD < 1 | great precision |
| % RSD 1-3 | good precision |
| % RSD > 3 | low precision |
| sig figs of st. dev. | 1 sig fig unless starting with 1 or 2, can't be more precise than instrument error |
| sig figs for log(x) | sig figs= sig figs after decimal |
| bidentate= | 2 electrons |
| analytical chemistry | analysis of samples |
| analyte | substance of interest |
| Hhq^+ | pH below 5, soluble, doesn't bind |
| hq | pH 5-10, binds, insoluble |
| hq^- | pH>10, soluble and bind, forms by products |
| buffer for experiment 2 | ammonium acetate |
| what does the buffer do in experiment 2 | maintain pH overnight |
| what does HCl do in experiment 2 | raise the pH |
| equivalence point | moles analyte=moles titrant |
| indicator of experiment 3 | phenophathein |
| analyte of experiment 3 | unknown acid |
| endpoint | color change |
| titrant | NaOH |
| ligand in experiment 4 | Oxalate |
| shielding | reduces energy, reduces pull |
| degenerate | s- and p-orbitals have same energy |
| reaction to form Al(hq)3 | acid-base reaction |
| what pH is the experiment performed under and why | 5, protonation stages are soluble, binds, and no by-products |
| why is the spectrophotometry ran at 520 nm | cause green is complementary to red |
| Transmittance | light gone through |
| absorbance | -log(T) |
| what is to spectroscope calibrated with | Hg (Mercury) |
| parallel spin | same spin |
| anti-parallel spin | opposite spin |
| parallel vs anti-parallel spins | energy is lower for parallel spin |
