KEY to PRELAB 359: Spectrophotometric Analysis of Permanganate Solutions
1. The substances are potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid.
Potassium permanganate is a strong oxidizing agent and a skin irritant.
Sulfuric acid is a corrosive, toxic substance that can easily cause skin burns.
2. A Beer’s Law plot is linear only for a range of concentrations. If the solution is too dilute, too much light passes through the solution; if the solution is too concentrated, not enough light passes through the solution. When this happens, the detector’s response is no longer linear, which means that the change in the absorbance is no longer the same for the same change in the concentration of the solution. This is the case for highly concentrated solutions of potassium permanganate, such as 5.0 M KMnO4.
3. The amount of complex formed is dependant on the amount of iron (II) present in the solution. The other substances that are added to the solutions are added in the same quantities so that the solution matrix is the same. When the solution matrix stays the same, the change in absorbance is due to the change in the concentration of the complex.

Throughout Love Songs in Age and Wild Oats, Philip Larkin uses various literary techniques, such as imagery, structure and symbolism to convey certain aspects of love and the passing of time. These aspects are illuminated by Dannie Abse in Down the M4. Love Songs in Age pictures a woman, perhaps Larkin’s mother, who has kept the musical scores of songs she used to play, perhaps on the piano, and rediscovers them after many years, when she is a widow. In the poem, Larkin uses lexical choice to explore…

“When in love, the sight of the beloved has a completeness which no words and no embrace can match: a completeness which only the act of making love can temporarily accommodate” (Berger 141). The essay Ways of Seeing portrays the idea that every person views the world differently with different ideas about what they see. A major thing that every person views differently is what, how, and who they fall in love with. The events in everyone's life effects the lens life is viewed through. This lens chooses…

Sometimes this love can even make the person or people naive about how far they are going…

124 Unnecessary Love? In the play “A Midsummers Night’s Dream” written by William Shakespeare, he tries to express the difficulties of being in love and all the ups and downs that come along in life, while being in love.
