In Beer's Law, when the absorbance of a solution is 0, this means that a. all of the incident light passes through the solution and hits the dector b. all of the incident light is reflected by the solution, none hits the dector c. all of the incident light is absorbed by the solution, so it all hits the dector d. all of the incident light is absorbed by the solution, so none hits the dector

a. When the light source is monochromatic, Beer's Law holds true. b. Beer's Law establishes a relationship between the concentration of a sample and its absorbance, wherein absorbance is the ratio of light leaving the sample to light entering it. c. For solutions that have more than one absorbing species, Beer's Law holds true even if the analytes of interest don't interact.

You left a glass full of homogenized milk on a table undisturbed for half an hour. What would result if you shined a laser beam against the side of the glass? * The beam of light will be reflected back to its original source. No light will pass through the two side of the glass. A path of light will be visible from one side of the glass. The beam of light will not be reflected nor will it be visible.
