A solution containing 1.00mg iron (as the thiocyanate complex) in 100mL was observed to transmit 70.0% of the incident light compared to an appropriate blank. (a) What is the absorbance of the solution at this wavelength? (b) What fraction of light would be transmitted by a solution of iron four times as concentrated?
