Question

Below are absorption spectra for chlorophyll A, chlorophyll B, and carotenoids. What wavelength(s) would be good for monitoring concentration of different solutions of chlorophyll A In a solution with all three compounds present, what would be a good wavelength for monitoring concentration of just the carotenoids Given the molar absorptivity (extinction) coefficient, epsilon, for chlorophyll b at 670 nm is 47,000 M^-1 cm^-1, what is the concentration of a chlorophyll b solution with an absorbance of 0.36 through a 1 cm cuvette A = epsilon b c

Explanation / Answer

          = 0.36 /(47 000 M-1cm-1 x 1 cm)

          = 7.66x10-6 M
