- Using the formula V₁D₁ = V₂D2, what volume of a 1/100 (10-2) dilution would you need to produce 100 mL of a 1/10000 (10-4) dilution? (Note: provide your answer in decimal format to three decimal places.)The standard curve to determine the amount of betacyanin is shown below. You extracted a red pigment from a beet disc (the mass of a disc is 2 g) using 10 ml of 20% ethanol solution. You measured absorbance of the solution above the beet disc every minute for a total time of 20 minutes. The increase in absorbance was linear during a period of time from 1 min to 10 min. The absorbance at 10 min was 0.8. Calculate the amount of betacyanin extracted from 1g of a beet tissue per minute. Explain your calculations.
