Calculate the error in measured absorbance of a 1.3 micrometer thick sample with n= 2.7 and alpha= .2 per micronmeter, if the reflectance were neglected. Assume normal incidence.
Let us assume that the light is travelling from air (n1 = 1 to the slab n2 = 2.7)
Reflectance coefficient for normal incidence R = ((n1-n2)/(n1+n2))2
R = (1.7/3.7)2 =0.459 = 0.46
As we know that Transmittance +Absorbance +Reflectance = 1
Absorbance = 1 - (Transmittance +Reflectance )
If reflectance is neglected, Absorbance = 1 - (Transmittance)
so error in absobance = Reflectance.
Please see the below image on how we calculate the reflectance
Hence, error in absorbance = 0.54

Part C The absorbance of a cationic iron(II) sample solution was measured in a spectrophotometer, but the instrument returned an error because the absorbance was too high. The sample was then diluted by using a pipette to take 100.0 μL of the sample and injecting it into a cuvette already containing 2.00 mL of water (total volume is 2.00 mL + 100.0 μL). The absorbance value of the diluted solution corresponded to a concentration of 6.70×10−6 M . What was...

Consider a 1 μm thick coating of dielectric material (n-2) on a piece of glass (n = 1.5). Use a computer to plot the magnitude of the overall Fresnel coefficient (4.11) from air into the glass at normal incidence Plot as a function of incident wavelength in the range 200 nm to 800 nm, assuming the index remains constant over this range.

observations are (in milligrams per liter): 5.0, 3.4, 3.9, 1.3, 0.2, 0.9, 2.7, 3.7, 3.8, 4.1, 1.0, 1.0, 0.8, 0.4, 3.8, 4.5, 5.3, 6.1,6.9, and 6.5. Water quality engineers are interested in knowing whether these data support a claim that mean dissolved oxygen concentration is 2.5 milligrams per liter. (a) Formulate an appropriate hypothesis testing procedure to investigate this claim. O In order to use t statistics in hypothesis testing, we need to assume that the underlying distribution is normal....
