Derivation of Beer's Law


Graph Description:

  • If you were to plot absorbance (A) on the vertical axis (y-axis) against concentration (c) on the horizontal axis (x-axis) for a system that follows the Beer-Lambert law perfectly, you'd expect a straight line passing through the origin.

  • The slope of this line would be equal to c × ε × l.
