From the study with UV-Vis spectroscopy, four samples of solutions with different known concentrations of atrazine were analyzed, using a 1 cm optical path cuvette at 220 nm. The analytical curve (calibration curve) with absorbance values (y-axis) per atrazine concentration (x-axis) provided a straight line with the following parameters: linear coefficient = 0 and slope = 760. assumptions of the Lambert-Beer Law, evaluate the following statements: I. The molar absorptivity coefficient (E), under the described experimental conditions, cannot be determined. II. A sample of a solution containing atrazine with an absorbance of 0.2 will show a concentration of 2.6x10-4 mol/L. III. Atrazine concentrations could be determined due to absorption taking place in the visible region. IV. The change in absorbance as a function of the analyte concentration is directly related to the absorptivity coefficient of atrazine and the length of the optical path of the cuvette. It is correct only what is…
