A is the measure of absorbance (no units), ϵ is the molar extinction coefficient or molar absorptivity (or absorption coefficient), l is the path length, and. c is the concentration.

A spectrophotometer is an instrument that measures the amount of photons (the intensity of light) absorbed after it passes through sample solution. With the spectrophotometer, the amount of a known chemical substance (concentrations) can also be determined by measuring the intensity of light detected.

A is the measure of absorbance (no units), ϵ is the molar extinction coefficient or molar absorptivity (or absorption coefficient), l is the path length, and. c is the concentration.

So, the spectrophotometer measures T, then calculates A, which is displayed on the output reader. The higher the amount of absorbance means less light is being transmitted, which results in a higher output reading. For example, if 50% of the light is transmitted (T=0.5), then A = 0.3.

A spectrometer measures the wavelength and frequency of light, and allows us to identify and analyse the atoms in a sample we place within it.

Spectrophotometry is a standard and inexpensive technique to measure light absorption or the amount of chemicals in a solution. It uses a light beam which passes through the sample, and each compound in the solution absorbs or transmits light over a certain wavelength.

Most spectrophotometers have a scale that reads both in O.D. (absorbance) units, which is a logarithmic scale, and in % transmittance, which is an arithmetic scale.

Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers use a light source to illuminate a sample with light across the UV to the visible wavelength range of the electromagnetic spectrum (typically 190 to 900 nm). The UV range normally extends from 100 to 400 nm, with the visible range from approximately 400 to 800 nm.

Procedure: Select a blank cuvette and place it in the spectrophotometer. Close the lid. Click on 0 ABS 100%T button, the instrument now reads 0.00000 A. Choose a solution with known concentration and measure the absorbance between the wavelengths 350 nm to 700 nm. Record the wavelength at the maximum absorbance value.
