By what factor is sample A2 more concentrated than sample A1? 

8. Below, typical UV absorption spectra for NAD and NADH are shown.
In a spectroscopic experiment where the presence of an analyte A is directly linked to the enzyme catalysed generation of NADH, the following absorbance values were observed at a wavelength of 340
nm in samples containing two different concentrations of A:
Absorbance, BLANK (sum of all components): 0.2
Absorbance, SAMPLE A1 low conc: 0.4
Absorbance, SAMPLE A2 high conc: 0.8
