All Elements are obtained in the periodic table & water is Not an element it is a compound.
For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:
A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution
As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:
A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638
Answer:
It is important for scientists to form a consensus on scientific issues because scientific consensus tells us things that we have already learned.
