- 2Calculate concentration
- 3Generate calibration curve if multiple samples
Worked Examples
Влез
Absorbance 0.5, ε = 5000 M⁻¹cm⁻¹, b = 1 cm
Резултат
c = A/(εb) = 0.5/5000 = 1×10⁻⁴ M
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Using wrong wavelength for compound
- ✕Not accounting for baseline absorbance
Frequently Asked Questions
What's molar absorptivity?
