Problem
A dye solution will be analyzed at 660 nm using a 1.00 cm cuvette. The spectrophotometer provides linear readings only for absorbance values between 0.10 and 0.90. If the dye’s molar absorptivity at 660 nm is 1.25×10⁴ L mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹, determine the minimum and maximum dye concentrations (in M) that will keep measurements within the linear range.
