1. Calculate the wave number of a light of wave length of 468 nm?

2. A solution shows an absorbance of 0.620. Calculate its percent transmittance?

3. What is the concentration of an absorbing species if its molar absorptivity is 1500 L.

mol-1 .cm-1 and absorbance in a 1 cm cuvette is 0.842?

4. The measured absorbance of a sample in a 1.00 cm cuvette is 0.544. If the

concentration is 1.40x10-3M, what is the molar absorptivity of the species?

5. Absorbance of a standard solution of concentration 2.0ppm in a 1.0cm cuvette is 0.246.

What is the concentration of another solution of the same absorbing species if the
absorbance is 0.529?
