Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A solution exhibits an absorbance of 0.15 at excitation and 0.10 at emission wavelengths. Calculate the corrected fluorescence intensity assuming a measured intensity of 0.70.

💡 Hint: Remember to average the absorbances.

Challenge 2 Hard

If the Stern–Volmer constant K_SV is found to be 1.2, with a quencher concentration of 0.05 M, calculate the ratio of intensities I₀/I.

💡 Hint: Revisit how to apply the Stern–Volmer equation.
