Spectrophotometry: Learn the Beer-Lambert law with absorbance experiments

In this simulation, you will build your own spectrophotometer and use it to measure the absorbance of a reaction product. Following this, you will manipulate the Beer-Lambert equation to convert a known substance's absorbance data from the spectrophotometer to concentration data.

You can access these pages as you play through the simulation, so there's no need to read them all right away.

Here is a list of pages that will be helpful for this simulation:

• Spectrophotometer
  • Spectrophotometer Components
  • Spectrophotometry Analysis
• Initial Reaction Rate
• Master Mix
• Beer-Lambert Law
  • Molar Extinction Coefficient
