| beer | 1. A fermented liquor made from any malted grain, but commonly from barley malt, with hops or some other substance to impart a bitter flavor. Beer has different names, as small beer, ale, porter, brown stout, lager beer, according to its strength, or other qualities. See Ale. 2. A fermented extract of the roots and other parts of various plants, as spruce, ginger, sassafras, etc. Small beer, weak beer; (fig) insignificant matters. "To suckle fools, and chronicle small beer." Origin: OE. Beor, ber, AS. Beor; akin to Fries. Biar, Icel. Bjrr, OHG. Bior, D. & G. Bier, and possibly E. Brew. 93, See Brew. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| Beer's law | The intensity of a colour or of a light ray is inversely proportional to the depth of liquid through which it is transmitted; it is concluded that the absorption is dependent upon the number of molecules in the path of the ray. Compare: Beer-Lambert law. (05 Mar 2000) |

| beer-lambert law | The equation A=ECL, where A is the absorbance at a given wavelength of light, E is the molar extinction coefficient, C is the concentration of the molar solution, and L is the length of the light path. In words, the equation means that the concentration of a substance in moles is proportional to the absorption of a given wavelength of light by a solution of the substance. The equation is used in the study of spectroscopy. (09 Oct 1997) |

| Beer's law |
the ability of a penetrant to yield an indication depends primarily on its ability to fluoresce as a very thin film. The performance of penetrants based on the physical constraints of the dyes can be predicted using Beer's Law equation. This equation does not hold true when very thin layers are involved but works well to establish general relationships between variables.

| Beer's l. |
the absorbance (A) of a solution is directly proportional to the length of the light path (b) and the concentration (c); the proportionality constant is the molar absorptivity (ε) thus A = εbc. The absorptivity is independent of the concentration and is thus a property of the solute and solvent. Beer's law generally holds only up to a certain concentration, above which the relation between concentration and absorbance becomes nonlinear.
