A student prepared several solutions of Molecule Bright, each at a different concentration. The absorbance of each solution was measured at 405 nm with a path length of 0.730 cm. The student then plotted the absorbance of each sample vs. its concentration (in mM), and found a best-fit line of y = 3.726x + 0.828. Calculate the molar absorptivity of the Molecule Bright (in M-1 cm-1).
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).

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.
A solution with a known concentration equal to 3.4 mM gave an absorbance reading of 0.820 in a spectrophotometer. Assuming that there is a linear relationship between concentration and absorbance up to a concentration of 4.0 mM, what would the absorbance reading be for a solution with a concentration 2.2 mM?
Ni2+ appears green in solution, so its concentration can be determined spectrophotometrically. A student measured the absorbances of several solutions of known Ni2+ concentration and created a plot of absorbance vs. [Ni2+]. The equation of the best-fit line for the calibration curve was determined to be y = 1.45x + 0.00162. What would be the concentration of a Ni2+ solution that has a measured absorbance of 0.560?
A standard 1 mL cuvette is three-quarters filled with a 1 in 6 dilution of 24 μmol.L-1 oxyhaemoglobin. The absorbance is measured at 600 nm. A few drops of a live yeast suspension is added to the cuvette (without significantly changing the volume). The absorbance is remeasured at the same wavelength as above and is found to be 0.60, a decrease of 0.35 on the first measurement.What is the molar absorbance coefficient of the deoxyhaemoglobin at 600 nm? (do not enter the units in the answer, 2 decimal places)
