A 7.25 x 10-5 M solution of potassium permanganate has a transmittance of 44.1% when measured in a 2.10-cm cell at a wavelength of 525 nm. Calculate (a)the absorbance of the solution, and (b) the molar absorptivity.

The percent transmission, % T, is defined as follows. percent transmission = х 100% 1, = intensity of the light entering the sample | intensity of the light leaving the sample sample If the sample absorbs no light, I = lo, the percent transmittance will be equal to 100%. If the sample absorbs the light completely, I = 0, the percent transmittance will be equal to 0. Thus, the greater the amount of light absorbed by the sample, the smaller the percent transmittance. You are given the following solutions, E will have the lowest %T and A will have the lowest absorbance. The lambda max for these solution should be around 620 nm. А В D E
