A sample of a colored analyte at a concentration of 3.60 ´ 10-3 mol/L shows 34.2 percent transmittance in a 2.00 cm cell. What is the value of a in the Beer’s law equation for this substance at the wavelength measured? If a sample of the colored analyte of unknown concentration gives an absorbance, A, of 0.520 in the same cell at the same wavelength, what is the concentration of the analyte in this solution?
