a. When the light source is monochromatic, Beer's Law holds true. b. Beer's Law establishes a relationship between the concentration of a sample and its absorbance, wherein absorbance is the ratio of light leaving the sample to light entering it. c. For solutions that have more than one absorbing species, Beer's Law holds true even if the analytes of interest don't interact.

Why is it necessary to run a blank before measuring the absorbance of a sample? To allow the lamp and electronics of the spectrophotometer to warm up before taking the sample absorbance reading. So that scattered light will be filtered before hitting the photodetector. To account for the absorbance caused by the cuvette and the solvent To account for the absorbance caused by the cuvette alone .
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?
Which mathematical relationship is most useful to relate concentration to the amount of light passing through the solution? (% Transmission, or Absorbance), Why?
A student measures the absorbence of an unknown after placing a sample in a cuvette which contained some water. How will this affect the concentration he reports?
Kiko wants to determine the concentration of an unknown solution which produces a green solution. However, the spectrophotometer he uses doesn't have a function to determine the analytical wavelength of the solution. What is the most probable analytical wavelength he can use for the experiment? Refer to the color wheel below.
For the experimental data used in this lab, why was it okay to use the absorbance values instead of concentrations?
A. What is the term for the wavelength where a solution will absorb the most light? B. What is the term for the distance through which the light travels before it reaches a detector?
Which is TRUE for spectroscopy of a mixture? A. The absorbance for a mixture at a particular wavelength is the sum of the absorbances for the components that absorb at the particular wavelength. B. Spectrophotometers can differentiate between mixture components that absorb at the same wavelength. C. Each component in a mixture has the same molar absorptivity at the same wavelength. D. The concentration for each component in a mixture is easily calculated by least squares for guesses of each component when the individual spectra are well resolved.
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.
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.
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)
Chemistry Instrumental Analysis Class The experiment is OES: Cleaning Validation of removal of pharmaceutical drugs and calibration standards by fluoresence spectroscopy - Why the instrument use two detectors and monochromators? What type of monochromators are used in our instrument? - Do you think that a similar experiment can be prepared for the analysis of naproxen and benzoic acid? Explain.
