In the spectrophotometer, why is there a need to measure a 'blank' sample? What will happen to the accuracy of your result if you measure the specimens without measuring a 'blank' trial? In the experiment, what liquid can be placed in the cuvette when measuring a 'blank' trial?
Which of the following scientists use this X-ray crystallography?
Suppose you were in a research lab in Romania and the lab is equipped with several spectrophotometers (UV and VIS). You need to determine the concentration of a protein solution and although you know several techniques you must decide which spectrophotometer to use. Which spectrophotometer are you choosing and which wavelength will you use?
If you have a sample of unknown composition, a first step at analysis might be a determination of the masses of the atoms and molecules in the sample. A mass spectrometer to make such an analysis can take various forms, but for many years the best technique was to determine the masses of ionized atoms and molecules in a sample by observing their circular paths in a uniform magnetic field, as illustrated is shown. A sample to be analyzed is vaporized, then singly ionized. The ions are accelerated through an electric field, and ions of a known speed selected. These ions travel into a region of uniform magnetic field, where they follow circular paths. An exit slit allows ions that have followed a particular path to be counted by a detector, producing a record of the masses of the particles in the sample. The moving ions can be thought of as a current loop, and it will produce its own magnetic field. The direction of this field at the center of the particles’ circular orbit isA. In the…
