Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Values of [X] and [Y] have to be verified.

Concept Introduction:

Molar absorptivity is a coefficient that appears in Beers’ law. It measures the extent of light absorbed at a certain wavelength. Molar absorptivity is denoted by the symbol ε. SI unit for Molar absorptivity is M1cm1.

Relation between path length and dimension is as follows:

  D=b(ε'Xε"Yε'Yε"X)

Here,

ε denotes molar absorptivity in M1cm1.

b denotes path length in centimeters.

D denotes dimension.
