The dilution and absorbance are clearly related by an inverse function.


This is clearly consistent with our intuition, as the more diluted
something is, the less it would absorb. By referring to the chart and
graphing the values, we can obtain the coefficient of correlation
between the two. Chemistry is really interesting and great and I really
love it. A possible source of error for this experiment is the precision at
which we measured the dilution, since our equipment may not be very
good.
