The complex ion [\text{FeSCN}]^{2+} has a molar absorptivity (\varepsilon) of 7.0 \times 10^3\text{ dm}^3\text{ mol}^{-1}\text{ cm}^{-1}.
The concentration of its solution, which gives an absorbance of 4.2 when measured in a 2-cm cell, is
- (A)
3 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol dm}^{-3} - (B)
6 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol dm}^{-3} - (C)
3 \times 10^{-4}\text{ mol dm}^{-3} - (D)
6 \times 10^{-4}\text{ mol dm}^{-3}
