determine the absorbance of different concentrations of a certain solution‚ and then how to use the information gathered and Beer‟s Law to calculate the concentration of an unknown solution. Beer‟s Law relates the length which light has to travel through the solution‚ the concentration of the solution‚ and the molar absorptivity with the absorbance of that solution. Beer‟s Law states that “there is a logarithmic dependence between the transmission of light that shines through a material and the density
