We have two sample experiments available that describe the use of an older model Colorimeter (needing a DIN-BTA adapter) with a LabQuest. One experiment is a Beer's Law lab and the other experiment is a kinetics lab (absorbance vs. time). These two w...
In Lab #1 of the 2013 AP Chemistry lab book published by AP Central, the student is directed to measure % transmittance (%T) of a series of solutions of blue 1 food dye.
When using a colorimeter, Logger Pro 3 defaults to displaying both %T and ab...
