Chapter 6, Problem 6.19QAP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The concentration of compound should be calculated which result in a solution that has 10.16 % transmittance in a 2.00-cm cell.

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.
