β-Lactone Equilibrium. To accomplish this‚ a manual spectrophotometer was used to determine the maximum absorbance of a sample of Rhodamine β-Lactone. The absorbance of the sample was then measured over a range of temperatures from which the equilibrium constant (K)‚ enthalpy (ΔH)‚ entropy (ΔS) and Gibbs free energy were then calculated. INTRODUCTION: The xanthene dye Rhodamine β-Lactone can undergo multiple equilibria. “In protic solutions‚ Rhodamine β-Lactone exists as an equilibrium mixture
