Determination of an Unknown Concentration of Potassium Manganate using Colorimetry Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to conclude the concentration of an unknown solution using colorimetry to plot a calibration curve. Colorimetry measures the absorption of light at wavelengths within the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. It can be used to identify the unknown concentration of a solution in reference to a solution of a known concentration. When a solution appears

Rabi‚ a physics professor at Columbia University‚ suggests a clock could be made from a technique he developed in the 1930’s called atomic beam magnetic resonance. 1949 Using Rabi’s technique‚ NIST (then the National Bureau of Standards) announces the world’s first atomic clock using the ammonia molecule as the source of vibrations. 1952 NIST announces the first atomic clock using cesium atoms as the vibration source. This clock is named NBS-1. 1954 NBS-1 is moved to NIST’s new laboratories
