Question
Chapter 20, Problem 20.25P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The weight of DNA in the given aqueous buffer has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
Beer-Lambert’s law:
It is the law that is widely used to make quantitative analysis of samples in UV-Spectroscopy. This law establishes a relation between absorbance, concentration and path-length of the sample cell which is known as cuvette in UV-Spectroscopy. The expression of the law is shown here:

Which of the following compounds can have a broad absorbance band near 3300 cm-1 and 1650 cm-1?
The beer-lambert law is A = εlc, where A is the absorbance, ε is the molar extinction coefficient, l is the path lengh in cm and C is the concentration. The beer lambert law can be expressed in the form of y=mx + b, where A is y, and C is x.What is b and how is it used to calculate the final absorbance?
Sally obtains a standard calibration curve for their assigned food dye by plotting absorbance versus concentration (in M) of known solutions and finds the following slope and intercept:
y = 1.646x + 0.026

Sally finds that her original Kool-aid sample is too concentrated, so they dilute it by transferring 13.00 mL of the original Kool-aid sample into a new container and diluting to a total volume of 37.00 mL. If the absorbance of the dilute Kool-aid sample at the appropriate wavelength for their assigned dye is 0.950, determine the concentration (in M) of the assigned food dye in the original Kool-aid sample. Report your answer with three places after the decimal.
