The molecule β-carotene has λ 450 nm, and ɛ = 15,000 m2 mol-1. Calculate the absorption (A) expected for a solution in which 0.1 mg has been dissolved in 10 ml of water (given: the molecular weight of β-carotene, C40H56, as 536) with a path length of 1 cm. Group of answer choices

The absorbance for a solution is 0.0028

Explanation:

To calculate the absorption of a solution, the equation by Beer-Lambert law is used:

OR

where,

A = absorbance = ?

= molar absorptivity = [/tex]15000m^2mol^{-1}L[/tex]

b = path length = 1 cm = 0.01 m                 (Conversion factor: 1 m = 100 cm)

Given mass of carotene = 0.1 mg = 0.0001 g     (Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg)

Molar mass of carotene = 536 g/mol

Volume of solution = 10 mL

Putting values in equation 1:

Hence, the absorbance for a solution is 0.0028

idk what the question is about

the cold front replaces the warmer air at the ground level changing the wind to be breezy and denser.there is also an immediate drop in the temperature.
