Spectroscopy measurements may be made in either percent transmittance (%T) or absorbance (A). Based on the mathematical relationship between absorbance and transmittance, A = - log T, explain why calibration curves of absorbance versus concentration may deviate from a straight line when A < 0.1 and when A > 1.

I am doing a lab using a spectrophotometer. I am measuring lambda max. Why does my book say to get the concentration low enough where absorbance is about 1 and transmittance is about .1?

How does concentration of a solution affect absorbance and transmittance?
