You have a solution that is a mixture of two compounds, A and B. The molar extinction coefficient (e) of substance A at 260nm and 280nm is 5248 and 3150 respectively. Compound B has a molar extinction coefficient of 311 and 350 at 260 nm and 280 nm rspectively. You determine that the solution has an absorbance of 0.83 at 260 nm and 0.67 at 280 nm. Can the individual concentrations of A and B be calculated from these data? If so, what are the concnetrations of each compound in this solution?
Someone else answered with:
@ 260 nm
A = (5248 x [A]) + (311 x [B]) = 0.83
@ 280 nm
A =(3150 x [A]) + (350 x [B]) = 0.67
[A] = 0.000095817
[B] = 0.00105193
While those are the correct answers, i'm not sure how they were gotten. How do you relate the two equations to find those values?

Human myoglobin is a protein with a molar extinction coefficient at 280nm of 1.40 x 104 M-1cm-1 . 100.0 uL of the stock solution of myoglobin (the tube was marked as 0.050 mg/mL) was mixed with 0.900 mL of buffer, giving an absorbance at 280nm of 0.810 (cuvette is 1.00 cm pathlength). From this information, what is the molecular weight of human myoglobin? Do you think this is a reasonable value? Explain WHY or WHY NOT?

A solution contains two components, A and B. At 520 nm component A has a molar absorptivity of 0.50 mmol^-1 and component B has a molar absorptivity of 0.20 mmol^-1. At 610 nm component A has a molar absorptivity of 0.10 mmol^-1 and component B has a molar absorptivity of 0.40 mmol^-1. If the total absorbance at 520 nm is 1.00, and the total absorbance at 610 nm is 0.80, what is the concentration of component A in the solution?
