How to calculate Adsorption capacity for dye removal?

04 April 2017 1 2K Report

I have recorded UV-vis spectra for dye adsorption using metal oxide.

Dye concentration= 200mg/L

Adsorbent= 25mg

The absorption peak was observed at 3.3 (intensity;a.u.) and it was absorbed with in 1h to 99.41%.

The formula i have used is qt = (C0 − Ct)V/m. I am confused what should be the C0 − Ct?

Please help me someone to calculate the adsorption capacity.
