Using the 1 cm path length and absorptivity coefficient calculated for question 1, and the data

Using the 1 cm path length and absorptivity coefficient Ɛ calculated for question 1, and the data for Dilution sample #1, perform the following calculations. Note – 1cm path length is being used because it is the standard size cuvette used in a laboratory spectrophotometer.

a. Calculate the theoretical absorbance for Dilution 1:

b. The phone is tilted backward and the path length is increased by 0.2 cm. What absorbance would be measured?

c. The Phone is tilted forward, and the path length is decreased by 0.1 cm. What absorbance would be measured?

d. In an industrial application that uses absorbance measurements for quality control, why would the scenarios presented for calculations b and c be undesirable, and what would be the potential impact on the product being tested?

3. List three real-world applications using absorption and/or transmission of light as measured with a spectrophotometer. Describe how it is used for the application.

4. List two real-world applications that use serial dilutions as part of a test method or product manufacture. Describe how it is used for the application.
