Problema Solution

the absorbance varies directly with the concentration of an unknown substance, and the absorbance is 0.3 when the concentration is 100 mg/dL. find the absorbance when the concentration is 300 mg/dL

Answer provided by our tutors

a directly proportional to c

so a = cx

a=0.3

c = 100

 

0.3/100 = x/300

90/100 = x

x = 0.9 --> the absorbance at c = 300
