Question

Calculate the molar extinction coefficients for carotene and chlorophyll using the peaks of highest absorption and Beer’s law.Show your calculations.basically solve for e

A = ebc

Carotene (Yellow) = Highest peak 450 nm and 0.455 absorption

A = ebc

0.455 = e*1cm*c?

0.455/(1cm * c?)=e
e= ?

I know i'm suppose to find e but what is C in this equation. I know I did an IR or something at got a Carotene (Yellow) = Highest peak 450 nm and 0.455 absorption.

Thank You

You don't have the information here. It must be is another part of your experiment.
