Colorimetry

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Colorimetry measures the intensity of color in a solution to determine concentration of a colored solute. It often involves comparing sample absorbance to a calibration curve or reference standard. Colorimetric methods are used in clinical diagnostics (e.g., measuring hemoglobin levels), environmental testing (e.g., water contamination), and industrial processes (e.g., dye concentration).
