You can set the\u00a0mode using the \u201cmode\u201d button.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Adjust the display to 100 %T. The instrument will read BLA\u2014while calibrating. Once\u00a0the Transmittance value appears, change the mode to Absorbance to record this\u00a0value in your data.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Every time you change the wavelength OR open the top of the spectrophotometer you\u00a0MUST put the settings back to %T and calibrate to 100% T with your blank solution.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The instrument can hold the blank AND 3 solutions at a time. The blank should go in\u00a0the first space (lever pushed all the way into the instrument), the samples can go in the other 3 spots. When placing the cuvettes into the instrument, they should only be ~ 1\u20442 full and should have a transparent side from left to right in the instrument.

Take the absorbance value for the unknown and find that value on the y-axis. Draw a horizontal line from that point on the y-axis to the plotted line. From the point where the horizontal line intersects the plotted line, draw a vertical line straight down to the x-axis. Record the value from the point where you hit the x-axis as the unknown concentration in the table.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 10\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>Experimental Data and Results<\/p>\n<p>Prepare a graph of Transmittance vs. Concentration using the data for the copper standards.
