The appearance of the spectrum from the fluorescent light source was recorded. A discharge tube apparatus was retrieved from a lab cart for demonstration. A hydrogen discharge tube was inserted into the discharge tube apparatus with the spring loaded end first‚ followed by the non-spring loaded end. The discharge tube apparatus was plugged into the outlet. The hydrogen discharge

Laboratory Exercise #2 Pre Lab This lab will teach me how to use a spectrophotometer. The use of the spectrophotometer is to measure the concentration of solute. The solute being measured must be colored and is determined based on the adsorption of light photons on a wavelength. The spectrophotometer uses a beam of light that strikes the diffraction grating that basically forms of prism of light. Then only a specific wavelength of light shines through the spectrophotometer and interacts with

Discussion Questions 1. 2. What is a spectroscope and what is it used for? A spectroscope is a scientific instrument that is used to measure the intensity of the light at different wavelengths by calculating the amount of light energy that is being absorbed by the electrons at different wavelengths. 3. 4. 6. How might the difference in the brightness of spectral lines be explained? In other words‚ why are some lines in a spectra easier to see and appear brighter? Some lines in a spectra are easier

Determining Red 40 Concentrations Using Absorption with Beer’s Law Introduction I like color and enjoyed learning about wavelengths and the spectrum of light‚ so I considered incorporating something related to that into my Internal Assessment. We also had just used concentrations in our Group 4 Project‚ so when I found an experiment that dealt with both of these I thought it was a great idea. This experiment is not completely original; the basic concept has been used multiple times. It uses Beer’s

In this experiment spinach‚ DPIP‚ phosphate solutions were placed under various filters and the percent orange light transmittance through the solution was measured to determine the rate of photosynthesis. This experiment was set up to discover how different wavelengths of light affect the rate of photosynthesis in a spinach‚ DPIP‚ phosphate solution. I proposed that the spinach‚ DPIP‚ phosphate solution under no filter‚ and therefore exposed to all light will have a highest percent orange light

The majority of the experimentation in this project relied on the idea that there is a relationship between concentration and absorbance of a solution. This is easy to understand if you can visualize the particles in the solution; and this is especially true if the particles in solution portray a distinct color. The more particles there are in the solution‚ the more they will obstruct the path of the light. This occurs the most at the analytical wavelength‚ where the most light is absorbed by

Lab: Flame Test Purpose: to determine the ID of 2 unknown substances Background Information: Every atom consists of a nucleus with tiny electrons whizzing around it. The further away from the nucleus they are‚ the more energy the electrons have. If a metal atom is heated‚ the electrons get enough energy to jump higher away from the nucleus‚ they become “excited”. When they fall back closer to the nucleus (back to their ground state)‚ they give off this extra energy as light. Why is the

Introduction Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (AAS) is an analytical equipment commonly used for the detection of heavy metals in particular sample. The first step to analysis in the AAS is the atomization of the desired element by converting it to a gaseous state. The atoms then absorb the energy emitted from the hollow cathode lamp corresponding to the desired element and a detector reads the signal and records the results. The results may be used quantitatively or qualitatively depending on the
