Answer to Question #60174 in Chemistry for t1

Question

state beer lamberts law and explain the principles behind it

Answer 1

Beer-Lamberts law is a linear relationship between absorbance and concentration of an absorbing species.
The general Beer-Lambert law can be written as:
A = a(λ) * b * c
where A - the measured absorbance;
a(λ) - a wavelength-dependent absorptivity coefficient;
b - the path length;
c - concentration.
