A student prepared several solutions of an unknown molecule, each at a different concentration. The absorbance of each solution was measured at 630 nm with a path length of 0.760 cm. The student then plotted the absorbance of each sample vs. its concentration (in uM), and found a best-fit line of y = 0.00626x + 0.00732. Calculate the molar absorptivity of the unknown molecule (in M-1 cm-1).
