What was your procedure?
And what was on the graph's other axis? I can't remember.
Y-axis-Absorbance, X-axis-Conc of Cu2+
I used n=CV with volume of 250*10^-3
Found Mass using molar ratios since and then divided this by the increase in mass which was given *100
Though i think this was wrong or i made some error

Now I remember,
we were suppose to calculate the percentage purity of copper
calculated conc. of copper = 0.19 mol dm^-3
volume 250 cm^-3
moles*Mr = 0.0475*63.5=3.0162g
purity = 3.0162/3.76 (if i remember the correct value)
80.2% was the answer

I just realised the stupid mistake that i made, i used the Mr of the whole compound instead of Cu. :cry:

Yes this is correct and I got the same answer
