Colorimetry Introduction Absorption Spectroscopic methods of analysis rank among the most widespread and powerful tools for quantitative analysis. The use of a spectrophotometer to determine the extent of absorption of various wavelengths of visible light by a given solution is commonly known as colorimetry. This method is used to determine concentrations of various chemicals which can give colours either directly or after addition of some other chemicals. As stated by the Beer-Lambert Law

Determining the Concentration of a solution: Beer’s Law Objective In this lab of Determining the concentration of a unknown solution: Beers Law. We determined the concentration of a unknown CuSO4 solution by measuring its absorbance with the colorimeter. With all the calculations we were able to solve the linear regression Equation of absorbance vs. concentration and the alternate method.

SPECTROPHOTOMETRY Spectrophotometry is the quantitative measurement of the reflection or transmission properties of a material as a function of wavelength It involves with the use of a spectrophotometer. A spectrophotometer is a photometer that can measure intensity as a function of the light source wavelength. A spectrophotometer is commonly used for the measurement of transmittance or reflectance of solutions‚ transparent or opaque solids‚ such as polished glass‚ or gases. Principles

purpose of this experiment is to apply Beer’s Law by analyzing samples provided by Q laboratory to determine their absorbance and prepare a Beer’s law plot. Molarity of these samples was also calculated to determine concentration and percent error rate. Students also analyzed the concentration of blue dye #1 to determine the concentration of blue dye #1 in a commercial blue dye drink. Procedure Exercise #1 Step #1: Convert %T (Table 1) to absorbance and prepare a Beer’s law plot using the data

Absorption Spectra and the Beer-Lambert Law. ɛ Purpose : Understanding of Beer –Lambert Law Introduction : When light passes through the colour solution ‚ the molecules of the solution absorb the quantity of light at a particular wavelength . The amount of light which is absorbed by solution depend on two things. 1. The length of the pathway of light 2.Concentration of colour solution. These are all explained by the Beer-Lambert Law. Absorbance (A) = ɛcl

Beer-Lambert Law Relationship Between Molar Concentration and Absorbance Solution colour results from the absorbance of some light wavelengths by solutes dissolved in solution‚ while allowing other wavelengths to pass through (transmittance). The combination of the remaining wavelengths that pass through results in the colour of the solution. A colorimeter can be used to determine the amount of light at a particular wavelength that is absorbed/transmitted by a solution. Depending on the concentration

The Beer-Lambert LawWhat the Law looks likeYou will find that various different symbols are given for some of the terms in the equation - particularly for the concentration and the solution length. I’m going to use the obvious form where the concentration of the solution is "c" and the length is "l". | | Note: That’s obviously "l" for length. The font I’m using won’t distinguish between "l" for length and a capital letter "I" (for Intensity). That problem disappears in the equation below - where
