Spectroscopy

The principle of absorption curves states that the absorbance of a substance at a particular wavelength in a spectrophotometric analysis is directly proportional to its concentration in solution. This principle is based on the Beer-Lambert Law, which describes the relationship between absorbance, concentration, and path length of light through a sample.

Well, let me try to improve this answer a little... Atomic spectroscopy is, primarily, the science that investigates the interaction of electromagnetic radiation (such as X-rays, ultra-violet and visible light) with atoms, usually by means of absorption or emission. These principles of interaction can be combined in an instrument called "spectrometer" that, finally, can be used to quantify several elements of the periodic table in all kinds of sample that you can imagine, from water to rocks. This is usually done by associating the amount of energy absorbed or emitted by an atom or atom cloud to the quantity of atoms in a given sample (or, indirectly, to the concentration of the element in that sample). The most usual techniques associated to atomic spectroscopy are atomic absorprtion spectrometry, optical (or atomic) emission spectrometry and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Hope that helps... Atomic Spectroscopy is the determination of elemental composition by its electromagnetic or mass spectrum.

Sorry if this wasn't the exact answer you're looking for, but it was the only thing I could find. It took me FOREVER to find the answer to this question for a school project I was doing. I hope this is what you need!!! >Smile< :-)

Polarized Raman spectra refer to Raman scattering measurements where the incident and scattered light are polarized along specific directions. By using different polarization configurations, researchers can gather additional information about the orientation and symmetry of molecular vibrations in the sample. This technique is useful for studying anisotropic materials and understanding molecular structure and orientation.

Crushing a ceramic capacitor for FTIR analysis can be done by placing the capacitor in a mortar and pestle and grinding it into a fine powder. Ensure that the ceramic material is completely broken down to achieve a homogeneous sample for FTIR analysis. Wear appropriate protective gear to prevent inhalation of particles during the crushing process.

Narrow line sources are advantageous due to the simple fact that they add selectivity to the technique. If a very narrow line of a specific compound is emitted, there is a good chance that only the element that you are trying to determine will absorb that line and, therefore, you will avoid an erroneous signal due to absorption of radiation by concomitants in the atomizer, such as atoms of other elements or molecules. With that, you can also use a low or medium resolution monochromator, which will have the sole function of isolating the line of interest from other lines emitted by the source. Therefore, instruments can be simpler and, consequently, cheaper. That is basically it...

The state-of-the-art in atomic absorption spectrometry, however, consists of instruments that use continuum sources, where a single source emits radiation in all range usually used in AAS. But modifications in the instrument were necessary for that, such as the use of a high-resolution monochromator and a CCD detector. Hope that helps...

True. Light energy is electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the naked eye.

There is a simple explanation for the sharp limit on the short wavelength end of the electromagnetic spectrum. The shortest electromagnetic waves are generated by the reactions of subatomic particles. At some point, it just isn't possible to generate a higher frequency electromagnetic wave. We can imagine them, but they cannot be "made" by us (in particle accelerators) nor are they "caused to occur" in nature (by catastrophic cosmic events).

It Increases. Red light has a wave length of about, 620-750 nm.

Blue light a wave length of about 450-475 nm

Two common sources of continuous spectra used in emission spectroscopy are the electrical discharge lamps and the incandescent lamps. Electrical discharge lamps, such as the mercury vapor lamps, produce continuous spectra due to the excitation of atoms or molecules in the gas discharge. Incandescent lamps, on the other hand, produce continuous spectra because of the thermal emission from the hot filament.

It depends what you used as your excitation wavelength. If you used 800 nm as your excitation wavelength, this is due to Rayleigh scattering, where photons from the emission source are scattered off of the molecules in your sample and are picked up by the detector. If your wavelength is shorter (like 400 nm) then this is due to Raman Scattering, where the molecule either absorbs or donates energy from/to the photon during the scattering process. Scattering peaks are traditionally much sharper than fluorescence peaks.

Flame emission spectroscopy is commonly used in situations where the elemental composition of a sample needs to be determined. It is frequently employed in environmental monitoring to analyze trace elements in water and soil samples. It is also utilized in metallurgical and pharmaceutical industries, as well as in forensic analysis to identify the presence of specific elements in crime scene evidence.

Track IR is a hardware device developed by NaturalPoint that allows users to track their head movement in order to control the perspective in video games and simulators. It uses infrared technology to track the position and rotation of the user's head, allowing for a more immersive and natural gaming experience.

If something is transperent it means that u can see through it, and light can be able to pass through it. If a speach is transparent; it means it was made clearly and so easy for people to understand.

A sharp ding or ringing noise. They say it is music to a goaltender's ears.

Because emission spectrum are the result of the electron configuration of the element and no two elements have exactly the same electron configuration.

Red cabbage has a deeper purple color and a slightly peppery flavor compared to green cabbage. Red cabbage also contains more Vitamin C and antioxidants compared to green cabbage. Both types can be used in a variety of dishes, but red cabbage is often preferred in salads and slaws for its vibrant color.

Low pressure sodium lamps emit a specific wavelength of yellow light. Objects that reflect or absorb other wavelengths of light will appear as different shades of yellow under this light source. Colors that do not have any yellow component in their spectrum may appear different shades of gray or black.

disadvantages - radiation can ionize and damage cells and is very expensive to use.

advantages - can go in lots of detail, and results are usually very clear

Yes, colors may be measured.

A spectrophotometer is a device used for measuring wavelengths in spectroscopy. It measures the intensity of light at different wavelengths, allowing for the analysis of the absorption, transmission, or emission of a sample. Spectrophotometers are commonly used in chemistry, biology, and physics laboratories for various analytical purposes.

Magenta is one of the three secondary colours: a mix of red and blue.

A true change in color is almost always associated with a chemical change.

Here are a few examples of visual changes that are not color changes due to physical change.

Chemical change: When your toast changes from white to brown, the heat of the toaster has caused a chemical change in the outer layer of the toast.

Physical Change: When rain changes to snow, we have the impression that it appears different. Water appears transparent and snow appears white, but the difference is really a difference of how light is scatters from snow. (A white color normally means diffuse reflection.)

Chemical Change: Photochromic eyeglasses are normal transparent glasses which darken when exposed to sunlight. This is an example of reversible chemical change induced by light.

Physical Change: A rainbow will appear when water droplets form in air and this can provide a dramatic color appearance. In fact, the color is again not the color of the droplet but the way diffraction splits the light into different colors as seen by the observer.

A physical change that is associated with a true change in actual color (not a change in light scattering) is quite exotic and no good example of such a change has been given in this answer.
