The absorbance of various wavelengths of light by a solution were measured. How does absorbance relate to the intensity of light that is transmitted through the solution and measured by the detector?
During your experiment, you measure the absorbance of a sample to be 1.362. You have to convert thisabsorbance to methylene blue concentration (in ppm) using the absorbance measurements of two standardsolutions of known concentration:5 ppm: Absorbance 0.55510 ppm: Absorbance 1.211What is, in ppm, the concentration of your sample? Report using 3 decimal figures. Your answer must becorrect to 0.02 ppm
Fill in the following blanks. As the dye concentration increases, the absorbance of the light [linearly increases, linearly decreases, exponentially increases or exponentially decreases]. The dye concentration units are [molar (M), millimolar (mM) or grams per liter (g/L)] . Although most people wrongly conclude that absorbance has units nm, in fact, absorbance is unitless. This is because it results from a ratio of light through a colored sample relative to light intensity through a clear (blank) sample. The units for the slope of the graph would be [mM, 1/mM or nm] . Hint: the slope is the change in y values divided by the change in x values. The units for the y-intercept of the graph would be [nm, nM or unitless] . The value for the slope of the line that describes the absorbance data is [6.4597 or 0.0008] The value for the y-intercept of the line that describes the absorbance data is [6.4597 or 0.0008] .
Determine the standard concentration of A through E and then the absorbance. I just need clarification on if I add together the two ml values given.
A standard curve of absorbance vs. concentration has a linear trendline of y = 0.56x + 0.987. Use this trendline to calculate the concentration of an unknown sample that has an absorbance of 1.245.
In Beer's Law, when the absorbance of a solution is 0, this means that a. all of the incident light passes through the solution and hits the dector b. all of the incident light is reflected by the solution, none hits the dector c. all of the incident light is absorbed by the solution, so it all hits the dector d. all of the incident light is absorbed by the solution, so none hits the dector
1.) Beer's Law can be used to find the concentration of a solution by measuring its absorbance. The law is given by ?=???A=ϵbC Where A is the absorbance, ?ϵ is the molar absorptivity, b is the pathlength of the light (the width of the sample cell), and C is the concentration of the solution. A student is analyzing a solution of a metal, and finds that the absorbance of the solution is 0.532. If ?=187 L⋅g−1⋅cm−1ϵ=187 L⋅g−1⋅cm−1 and ?=1 cmb=1 cm , what is the concentration of the metal in solution (in g/L)? * 352 * 2.84×10−32.84×10−3 * 2.84×10−22.84×10−2 * 96.8 2.)

Solutions that contain the FeSCN2+ ion are blood red (you will see this at the end of the second quarter of lab). Consider the regions of the visible spectrum in which the compound should absorb light and prepare a rough sketch of absorbance vs. wavelength for each solution. Label λ max on the graph. (Is this question asking for the graph of my data at the end)
Why must solutions with high concentrations be diluted prior to analysis via Beer's Law? A. The relationship between absorbance and concentration is not linear at high concentrations. B. The detector will reach its detection threshold. C. The photon source is too weak to provide accurate results. D. There is no need to work with dilute concentrations; any concentrations will work. E. The molar absorptivity of a compound is dependent on its concentration.
A sample was prepared by diluting 1 mL of a sample to 5 mL. The resulting solution has an absorbance of 0.463. Based on the Beer's Law plot prepared for the compound, y = 1.8711x, what is the concentration of the original solution?
The equation of your standard curve of absorbance versus concentration (mM) is y = 1.245x + 0.0012. You put a solution of unknown concentration into the Spec20 and get an absorbance value of 0.227, which lies within the standards used to make the standard curve. What is the concentration of the unknown solution in mM?
