What is Aspirin and how it works? Explain what is Beer's Lambert Law and Briefly explain absorbance and wavelength. Explain what is a spectrophotometer and its parts and usages. The use of the dilutant ion buffer solution. State that the experiment is an efficient way to find the unknown solutions. Whilst, Beer-Lambert's law can be used to work out the unknown solutions theoretically. These tests are carried out by various HCPs (biochemists, chemists, etc) to find out the substances in a patient's urine or bloods if they have taken an overdose, for example. The substances and their concentrations can be identified based on their lambda max. https://padlet.com/m_e_l_hardy/whv2496s3dwk970x/wish/1337075029 2021-03-22 10:16:38 UTC https://padlet.com/m_e_l_hardy/whv2496s3dwk970x/wish/1337075029 https://padlet.com/m_e_l_hardy/whv2496s3dwk970x/wish/1337076801 Include background info, terminology, definitions, theories and concepts.

§ Draw graphs/figures from data clearly showing relationships and trends

- Use set concentrations of aspirin and record the absorbance against wavelength

- Identification of Lambda max (highest peak on the graph)

- Use that wavelength against different concentrations of aspirin and record it at number of absorbance levels. This enables us to create the calibration curve.
