C) Energy Absorption and Concentration

This document contains 10 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of Beer-Lambert's law and its applications in absorption spectroscopy. Beer-Lambert's law relates absorption of light to concentration of substances. It states that absorption increases with concentration and path length. The key representations are A=abc, where A is absorption, a is absorptivity, b is path length, and c is concentration. Absorptivity and absorbance have units of L mol-1 cm-1.
