Question
Using a cell of known pathlength b = 1.25115 x 10-3 cm, a water absorption spectrum was measured. The band at 1645 cm-1, assigned to the O-H bending, showed an absorbance, A, of 1.40.
a) Assuming that water density is 1.00 g/mL, calculate the water molar concentration c (hint: M= mole/L)
b) Calculate the molar absorptivity, a, of the 1645 cm-1 band
c) The transmitted light, I, can be written as I= Ioexp(-xb), where x is the absorption coefficient (sometimes designated as alpha), Io is the input light, and b is the cell pathlength. Prove that x= (ln10)*x*c
d) Calculate x for the 1645 cm-1 band
