Question #60174
state beer lamberts law and explain the principles behind it
Expert's answer
Beer-Lamberts law is a linear relationship between absorbance and concentration of an absorbing species.
The general Beer-Lambert law can be written as:
A = a(λ) * b * c
where A - the measured absorbance;
a(λ) - a wavelength-dependent absorptivity coefficient;
b - the path length;
c - concentration.
The general Beer-Lambert law can be written as:
A = a(λ) * b * c

a(λ) - a wavelength-dependent absorptivity coefficient;
b - the path length;
c - concentration.
