An Introduction to
Ultraviolet/Visible Molecular
Absorption Spectrometry
Beers Law
log Po/P = ebc = A
The derivation of this law assumes
a)
That the incident radiation is monochromatic.
b)
The absorption occurs in a volume of uniform
cross-section.
c)
The absorbing substances behave independently of
each other in the absorbing process.
