You measure a sample in your spectrophotometer that has an absorbance of 1.00. What is the concentration of your sample in M.
A standard 1 mL cuvette is three-quarters filled with a 1 in 6 dilution of 24 μmol.L-1 oxyhaemoglobin. The absorbance is measured at 600 nm. A few drops of a live yeast suspension is added to the cuvette (without significantly changing the volume). The absorbance is remeasured at the same wavelength as above and is found to be 0.60, a decrease of 0.35 on the first measurement.What is the molar absorbance coefficient of the deoxyhaemoglobin at 600 nm? (do not enter the units in the answer, 2 decimal places)
Why must the absorbance be read at a wavelength of 543 nm?

Does a calibration curve alwasy compare concentration and absorbance? Or can it compare concentration and %T as well?
The validation process comprises four main steps that are : hardware validation, software validation, method validation and system suitability. To evaluate a spectrophotometer’s accuracy by measuring absorbance, a solution of 60.06 mg/L K2Cr2O7 in 0.0050M H2SO4 was carefully prepared together with a 0.0050 M H2SO4 as a reagent blank. If the spectrometer’s signal is properly calibrated, it has been reported that this solution should provide an absorbance of 0.640 +- 0.010 at wavelength 350 nm. Which one of the validations mentioned above had been involved in this process? Explain your choice
Plot (using appropriate scaling, with titles, axis labels, and units where applicable) the absorbance versus the concentration of each standard on graph paper. The slope of the best- fit line will be , in A = ,bc (Beer’s Law, where A is absorbance, , the extinction coefficient, b the path length, and c the concentration of the sample).
