How light reveals the hidden concentration of a chemical solution

Spectrophotometry and the Beer–Lambert Law | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy · 10:23 · Video: Khan Academy · Watch at the source

In short: This video explores the fundamentals of spectrophotometry and the Beer–Lambert Law. It explains how scientists use light absorption to determine the concentration of substances within a liquid sample.

The video provides an instructional overview of spectrophotometry, a technique used to measure how much light a chemical substance absorbs. By applying the Beer–Lambert Law, researchers can establish a direct relationship between the absorbance of light and the concentration of the solute in a solution.
