(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Molar absorption coefficient and absorbance of the aqueous solution containing amino acid tyrosine has to be calculated where transmittance is 0.22 and cell length is 1.5 mm.

Concept Introduction:

  • According to Beer–Lambert law, intensity of radiation absorbed at a particular frequency depends on number of species absorbed (N), molar concentration [J] and the path length, L.

  I = I010ε[J]Lwhere,ε = Molar absorption coefficient I = Intensity of incident radiationI0 = Intensity of transmitted radiation

  • Equation for transmittance, T can be given as,

   T= II0T = 10ε[J]Lwhere,I = Intensity of incident radiationI0 = Intensity of transmitted radiationN = Number of species absorbed[J] = Molar concentration L = Path length

  • Equation for absorbance, A can be given as,

  A = log TT = ε[J]Lwhere,I = Intensity of incident radiationI0 = Intensity of transmitted radiationN = Number of species absorbed[J] = Molar concentration L = Path length

Explanation of Solution

Given information is shown below,

  Molar concentration, [J]= 0.080 mol.dm-3 Transmittance, T = 0.22Wavelength =  268 nm Path length = 1.5 mm

  • Molar absorption coefficient is calculated by the given formula.

  T = 10ε[J]Lε = 10(T)[J]L

Substitute the given values as shown,

  ε = 10(T)[J]L =  10(0.22)( 0.080 mol.dm-3)(1.5 mm)= 5.48 dm3.mol1.mm1

Molar absorption coefficient is 5.48 dm3.mol1.mm1.

  • Absorbance of the solution is determined as given,

  A = log T = log (0.22)= 0.66

Absorbance of the solution is 0.66.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Transmittance through a cell with a length of 3.0 mm has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Equation for absorbance, A can be given as,

  A = log TT = ε[J]Lwhere,I = Intensity of incident radiationI0 = Intensity of transmitted radiationN = Number of species absorbed[J] = Molar concentration L = Path length

Explanation of Solution

Given information is shown below,

  Molar concentration, [J]= 0.080 mol.dm-3 Transmittance, T = 0.22Wavelength =  268 nm Path length = 3.0 mm

Molar absorption coefficient is calculated by the given formula.

  T = 10ε[J]Lε = 10(T)[J]L

Substitute the given values as shown,

  ε = 10(T)[J]L =  10(0.22)( 0.080 mol.dm-3)(1.5 mm)= 5.48 dm3.mol1.mm1

Molar absorption coefficient is 5.48 dm3.mol1.mm1.

Absorbance of radiation through a 1.0 mm cell length is calculated as follows,

  A = ε[J]L(5.48 dm3.mol1.mm1)(0.080 mol.dm-3 )(3.0 mm)= 1.315

Transmittance of radiation through a 1.0 mm cell length is calculated as follows,

A = log TT = 10A = 10(1.315)= 0.048

Transmittance of radiation through a 3.0 mm cell length is 0.048.
