Enter the absorbance, path length, and extinction coefficient into the calculator to determine the concentration.

## Concentration from Absorbance Formula

The following formula is used to calculate a concentration from absorbance.

C = A / (L * e)
• Where A is the absorbance
• L is the path length
• e is the extinction coefficient

To calculate the concentration from absorbance, divide the absorbance by the product of the path length and extinction coefficient.

## Concentration Definition

A concentration is defined as the total amount of a substance in a given space.
