A solution with a known concentration equal to 3.4 mM gave an absorbance reading of 0.820 in a spectrophotometer. Assuming that there is a linear relationship between concentration and absorbance up to a concentration of 4.0 mM, what would the absorbance reading be for a solution with a concentration 2.2 mM?

For an independent project, a student decides to analyze the blue coloring in mouthwash samples using the same spectrophotometry technique. A test of a mouthwash sample in a standard 1.0 cm wide cuvette results in an absorbance reading of 0.359. The student asks for your help in finding the concentration of Blue #1 in her mouthwash sample. Based on your understanding of today's experiment, how would you explain to the student how she could determine the concentration of Blue #1 in her sample? Use your own Beer's Law calibration data and molar absorptivity to lead her through a sample calculation, showing her how to calculate and report the concentration (using correct units) of Blue #1 in her mouthwash sample.
