PRINCIPLE:
Photocolorimeter is an instrument used to measure the intensity of light
absorbed by a substance. The relationship between absorbance (A) and
concentration of a solution (C) is given by Beer lamberts law.
Log (I0/I)= A = ɛC
From the equation, it is seen that the absorbance ‘A’ is directly proportional to
the molar concentration and the thickness of the cell.
10ml of the stock solution is pipetted out into another 100ml standard
flask. It is then made up to the mark using distilled water. Now the
concentration of standard KMnO4 is 0.001M.
RESULT:
Molar absorptivity of the given compound (KMnO4) , ɛ =____ mol-1 dm3 cm-1
