| A solution containing 4.48 ppm KMnO4 exhibits

85.9 %T in a 1.00-cm cell at 520 nm. Calculate the

molar absorptivity of KMnO4 at this wavelength.

Molar absorptivity or molar extinction co-effecient = 2120.14 cm⁻¹M⁻¹

Explanation:

First convert Concentration from ppm inM or mol/l

⇒ Molar mass of KMnO₄ = 158.03 g

⇒ 4.48 ppm = 4.48 mg/l = 4.48 x 10⁻³ g/l

⇒ Molarity = = 2.83 x 10⁻⁵ molar

Absorbance (A) = - log(T)     ( T = % transmittance)

                          = - log(0.859)

                          = 0.06

According to Lambert Beer's law

                 ε =

      or,      ε =

      or,      ε = 2120.14 cm⁻¹M⁻¹

Where

    ε = Molar absorptivity

    A = absorbance

    C = Molar concentration of KMnO₄ solution

     l = length

it’s previous models   because when i picked that son of a gun’s answer it was wrong look for previous models because they might make it a different letter
