Dictionary » M » Molar extinction coefficient Molar extinction coefficientDefinition noun (spectrophotometry) The measure of how strongly a substance absorbs light at a particular wavelength, and is usually represented by the unit M-1cm-1 or L mol-1cm-1.
It is symbolized by ε in Beer-Lambert law, A = εcl, where A is the absorbance of the sample, l is the pathlength (usually in centimeter), and c is the concentration of the of absorbing species in the material (moles per liter).

Re: Molar Extinction CoefficientSo if I have this data: Absorbance @ 405nm: .875 Concentration (M) of Cr(NO3)3 (aq): .25M Since you're saying that if l = 1cm (standard curvette), then E = A/C so then: .875/.25 = E E = 3.5?
