“The thicker the glass, the darker the brew, the less the light that passes through.” This laboratory activity introduces students to using a spectrophotometer. In this activity, students will make colorful concentrated and dilute solute and explore how much light they absorb and transmit using a virtual spectrophotometer. The accompanying simulation can be found here: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/beers-law-lab
