Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a dye with a molar absorptivity of 200 L/(mol·cm) and a cuvette path length of 1 cm. If the absorbance of the solution is 0.8, calculate the concentration of the dye.
💡 Hint: Make sure to rearrange the Beer-Lambert Law formula.
An analytical chemist prepares a calibration curve and finds a linear relationship between absorbance and concentration. Discuss how they would determine if their findings are valid and reliable.
💡 Hint: Think about the importance of repeatability in experiments.
