    To observe the fundamental stretching absorption spectrum of water or of an aqueous solution in the region around 3,500 cm −1 (2.85 μm) [90] a path length of about 25 μm is needed. Also, the cuvette must be both transparent around 3500 cm −1 and insoluble in water; calcium fluoride is one material that is in common use for the cuvette ...

The formula for the surface area of a sphere was first obtained by Archimedes in his work On the Sphere and Cylinder. The formula is: [6] A = 4πr 2 (sphere), where r is the radius of the sphere.
