Answer #1

A = \varepsilon *l*C is a equation which uses to calculate the absorption (A) of a solution. Here as given above, l represents the optical path length through which the light passes, C represents the molar concentration of solution and \varepsilon represents molar absorption coefficient.

This equation is called as Beer-Lambert law.

This law states that, the attenuation (reduction of the effect) of the light to the properties of a material through which the light is travelling.

There the material is a container in which the solution is filled. Which has a certain concentration and the container has some length through which the light passes.

This equation explains that, as the path length and the concentration of solution increases, then the absorption of light also increases. Therefore, A is directly proportional to l and C.

  light container having solution which has C concentration

Therefore, the above equation is known as the Beer - Lambert law.
