Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The absorbance 0.0865 is to be converted into percent transmittance.

Concept introduction:

The percent of light passing through the sample can be reported in a transmittance. In order to calculate the percent transmittance, the transmittance is multiplied by 100.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The absorbance 0.3995 is to be converted into percent transmittance.

Concept introduction:

The percent of light passing through the sample can be reported in a transmittance. In order to calculate the percent transmittance, the transmittance is multiplied by 100.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The absorbance 0.5725 needs to be converted into percent transmittance.

Concept introduction:

The percent of light passing through the sample can be reported in a transmittance. In order to calculate the percent transmittance, the transmittance is multiplied by 100.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Need to convert absorbance 0.028 into percent transmittance.

Concept introduction:

The percent of light passing through the sample can be reported in a transmittance. In order to calculate the percent transmittance, the transmittance is multiplied by 100.
