Dear All,
From the Definition: [α]T = 100 * α / (d * c) it follows:
α = [α]T * d * c / 100 with d in Decimeters !!!
Now its absolutely clear that only the final “total” Absorbance (losing of all Light) of the Substance will set an end of the maximal Angel, that could be measured, because you can increase and increase the “Pathlength” ( = d ) as much as you like, - Not only the Concentration ( = c ).
So there is another real interesting Question:
Which Substance shows us the highest [α]T?
Good Luck!
