Matter exists in three states namely: solids, liquids and gases. The particles contained in these three states are different from one another. In the gaseous state, the particles are FAR APART from one another i.e. space exists and they move at a very fast rate in contrast to the particles of a liquid, which have less space and move slower.

This rapid movement of gas particles within a less restricted space accounts for the reason why gaseous substances DIFFUSE more quickly than liquids.

A solution was found to have a 15.6 % transmittance at 500 nm, its wavelength of maximum absorption, using a cell with a path le

For the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm is mathematically given as

A’ = 0.16138

<h3>What is the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm?</h3>

Absorbance (A) 2 – log (%T) = 2 – log (15.6) = 0.8069

Generally, the equation for the Beer’s law is mathematically given as

A = ε*c*l

0.8069 = ε*c*(5.00 )

ε*c = 0.16138 cm-1

then for when ε*c is constant

l’ = 1.00

A’ = (0.16138 cm-1)*(1.00 cm)

A’ = 0.16138

In conclusion, the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm is

A’ = 0.16138
