Question

In exactly one, properly structured sentence, give a precise summary of the experimental data needed to generate a Beer’s Law plot.  This precise statement should be scientifically accurate and include all necessary details (minimum measurements needed, units, etc.).

Answer 1

Beer Law's plot is essentially the relationship between absorbance and its concentration; which can be related via the lenght of the cuvette being used and the molar absorptivity which raltes molar concnetratio in mol per liter to the dimensionless absorbtion value.

Extended:

recall that:

A = e*l*C

A = absorbance of sample

e is the molar absorptivity , the typical units are 1/M-cm

l size of cuvette, typically reported in cm

c is the molar concentration, in mol per ltier or M

therefore,

we need to find at least:

- Absorbation value

- Concentration used

- cuvette siez, typically 1 cm
