You will need to express the %T values as decimals before calculating the logarithms. (ppm) PERCENT TRANSMISSION ABSORBANCE 0 100.0 100 74.1 (e.g., for T = 25%, A = -log 0.25 = 0.602) 200 54.9 C. b. Use the graph paper on the back of this page (or a spreadsheet) to plot absorbance vs. concentration. Make a proper graph, with labeled axes, uniform scales, etc. Use a ruler to draw the best-fit line. Use the graph to find the concentration of the un- known sample.
