Beer–Lambert’s law

estimates solution concentration by absorbance.

A=log⁡10I0I=εcℓA=\log_{10}\frac{I_0}{I}=\varepsilon c\ell

symbols, variables and units

A: dimensionless; ε: L/(mol·cm); c: mol/L; ℓ: cm; I: light intensity.

applicable conditions and boundaries

Dilute solution, nearly monochromatic light, low scattering; high concentrations may deviate from linearity.
