An amount of 0.200 g of copper is dissolved in nitric acid. Excess ammonia is added to form Cu(NH3)42 and the solution is made up to 1 L. The following aliquots of the solution are taken and diluted to 10.0 mL: 10.0, 8.0, 5.0, 4.0, 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 mL. The absorbances of the diluted solution were 0.500, 0.400, 0.250, 0.200, 0.150, 0.100, and 0.050, respectively. A series of samples was analyzed for copper concentration by forming the Cu(NH3)42 complex and measuring the absorbance. The absorbances were (a) 0.450, (b) 0.300, and (c) 0.200. What were the respective concentrations in the three copper solutions

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
