What are the advantages of ICP-MS compare to atomic emission spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrometry?

ICP-MS allows multi-element analysis. It has a longer linear working range so fewer standards for calibration is needed as they can be spaced further apart. ICP-MS also has a higher sensitivity compared to atomic emission spectrometry or atomic absorption spectrometry.


What are the strenghts of limitations of atomic emission spectrometry?

Atomic emission spectrometry is a selective method for quantifying some types of metals. It is also cheap and robust. However, atomic emission spectrometry is only applicable to the determination of alkali metals and some alkaline earth metals.


What kind of metals can be quantified by atomic emission spectrometry?

Atomic emission spectrometry is limited to alkali metals.

What has the author George Zachariadis written?

George Zachariadis has written: 'Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry' -- subject(s): Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry


Scientist use the emission spectra of element to detect?

Emission spectrometry is an old and largely known method for quantitative and qualitative analysis of elements.


How do emission and absorption spectrums tell us about the composition of objects in our universe?

Each chemical element has a specific emission or absorption spectrum.


How does the chemical interference differ in inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry compared to flame?

Chemical interference occurs due to the absorbance/emission by molecules that did not break down into atoms. Inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry has less chemical interference as its hotter temperature breaks down everything into atoms.


What kind of metals is atomic emission spectrometry especially sensitive for?

It is especially sensitive for alkali metals.


When is atomic absorption more sensitive than atomic emission in atomic absorption spectrometers?

Atomic absorption is more sensitive to atomic emission when the excitation potential is greater than 3.5eV.
