Question

The absorbance of light by a solution is inversly proportionate to the concentration of the absorbing solute.
True
False

Answer 1

The fundamental law governing light absorption, known as Beer's law, is:

A = c L (5)

where

A = absorbance of the sample (also defined below in terms of light intensity)
c = concentration of the absorbing species (mol/liter)
L = path length traveled by the light beam through the sample (cm)
= molar extinction coefficient of the absorbing species (L⋅mol-1⋅cm-1)

Answer 2

so the answer is true

Answer 3

Any reasoning?

Answer 4

????????

Answer 5

Why do you think it is true, instead of just guessing?
Any explanations?

Answer 6

I got it, the absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration of the absorbing solute.

Answer 7

You are correct.

Answer 8

thank you

Answer 9

No problem!
