Explanation / Answer

a)

from the given graph :

Approximate Absorbance = 0.8

b)

concentration = 8.74 mg / L

                       = 8.74 x 10^-3 g / L

                       = 8.74 x 10^-3 / 122

                        = 7.16 x 10^-5 M

A = e b C

0.80 = e x 1 x 7.16 x 10^-5

e = 11167 M-1 cm-1

Molar absorptivity = 11167 M-1 cm-1
