Question

The light absorbance A of a molecule in solution is measured as a function of concentration [X].

[X]/M                             A                           

0                                     0

1.0 × 10–4                      0.157

3.0 × 10–4                      0.482

5.0 × 10–4                      0.713

7.0 × 10–4                      1.15

9.0 × 10–4                      1.37

Use spreadsheet software to graph the data and calculate a best–fit linear trendline.

What is the equation of the line that best fits the data?

 

Question 5 options:

 

A = (1.55 × 103 M–1) [X] + (4.93 × 10–4)

 

A = (1.13 × 103 M–1) [X] + (2.52 × 10–4)

 

A = (9.94 × 102 M–1) [X] + (3.81 × 10–4)
