Does a Colorimeter Measure?

A colorimeter can measure the absorbency of light waves. During colour measurement the change in the intensity of electromagnetic radiation in the visible wavelength region of the spectrum after transmitting or reflecting by an object or solution is measured.

What two things does a colorimeter measure?

Colorimetry, measurement of the wavelength and the intensity of electromagnetic radiation in the visible region of the spectrum.

How do you use a colorimeter to measure concentration?

To determine the concentration of a solution using colorimetry: (1) Determine the wavelength (colour) of light to use for the colorimetric analysis. (2) Prepare a set of standard solutions of known concentration. (3) Measure the absorbance of each standard solution using the colorimeter.
