1. Write the mathematical expression for Beer's law and explain each symbol in the expression. 2. Use Figure 7.2 to estimate the approximate wavelength of maximum absorption for an aque- ous solution of each of the following: Hemoglobin (the molecule that gives blood its color) a. nm Chlorophyll (the pigment that gives algae their color) b. nm Fill in the following for the correspondence between % transmittance and absorbance: 3. 1.00 absorbance absorbance 100.0 % T 1 % T 0.50 absorbance = absorbance 50.0 % T = 4. A solution has 21.7% transmittance in a cell with a path length of 1.00 cm. If the material responsible for the absorption of light has a molar absorptivity e = 38.7 (L/mole-cm) at the wavelength used, calculate the concentration of this solution in mole/L. (Show all work.)
