There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

Formaldehyde absorbs light most strongly at a wavelength of around 412 nm due to its electronic structure. By using 412 nm in UV-Vis analysis, we can employ the maximum absorbance of formaldehyde to accurately quantify its concentration in a sample. This wavelength is chosen based on the specific molecular properties of formaldehyde that enable it to interact with light most effectively.
