Appendices A. Sample Calculations: 3+ - 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 2 3+ 3+ Init - Init

The document provides sample calculations and raw data from an experiment determining equilibrium concentrations and the equilibrium constant for the reaction of Fe3+ and SCN- to form FeSCN2+. The calculations show how to determine initial concentrations, molar absorptivity, equilibrium concentrations using ICE tables, and the equilibrium constant Keq. Raw data tables provide absorbance values for standard solutions and unknown samples used to generate a calibration curve and calculate concentrations.
