How would fingerprints on a cuvette during a visible spectrometry lab affect the concentration reading?

A

Concentration would be lower, since more light is being reflected and not detected by the spectrometry light sensor.

B

Concentration would be higher since more light is being reflected or absorbed, increasing the absorbance reading.

C

Concentration will stay the same since the fingerprints will only deflect the light slightly and not enough to affect the absorbance measurements.

D

Concentration will be increase since more light is absorbed by the solution, resulting in a decrease in the absorbance measurement.
