Question

Calculate the concentration of lycopene in your orange fraction using using Beer's law equation

A=ExBxC

A is the measured absorbance, E is the molar extinction coefficient (M-1cm-1) at a particular wavelength, B is the path length (in cm) and C is the analyte concentration (M). 

A= 0.602. Wavelenght is 500.95nm. 

Molar extinction coefficients is 123,000M-1cm-1
