Experiment 33
Colorimetric Determination of Iron
CHE118
1
In Lab
• Work in groups of 4
• 2 people do part A; preparing the standard
solutions
• 2 people do part B; preparing the 3 trials of
the one unknown sample
• Everyone makes their own calibration curve
and determine the concentration of %Fe in
the unknown sample

2
Part A
•
•
•
•
Prepare all solutions at the same time
Prepare a blank solution (no Fe)
Allow only 15 minutes for color development
Use disposable test tubes instead of cuvettes
for use in the spectrophotometer
CHE118
3
Part B
•
•
•
•
•
Prepare all solutions at the same time
Follow some of Part A procedure (no Fe)
Share the blank solution (no Fe) from Part A
Allow only 15 minutes for color development
Use disposable test tubes instead of cuvettes
for use in the spectrophotometer

(Parts A and B)
An instrument that will indicate the amount of
light (of one wavelength) absorbed by a
sample
slit
LED
readout

Making the Calibration Curve
• You will acquire an absorbance reading for
each standard solution prepared (share data)
• Use the data from Part A to construct the
calibration curve

For All Students
• Typing error on x axis of graph paper:
mg Fe / mL (x 10 -3)
• Typing error on y axis; should be Absorbance
• Calculating % Fe in unknown sample:

mg/mL of original sample
You will know the grams of original sample from
the balance readout, and you will know the
dilutions made during sample preparation:
1. grams converted to mg
2. mg divided by size of first volumetric flask, in mL
3. 1 mL diluted by size of second volumetric flask, in mL
