Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The voltage to be applied between the filament and target is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Electron impact ionization is also known as electron ionization. It is an ionization method in which the electrons that are energized interact with the solid atoms or gaseous atoms in order to produce the ions. This technique makes use of the highly energetic electrons in order to produce the ions.
(b)
Interpretation:
The phenomenon that occurs when a molecule that diffuses towards filament, is ionized at point P is to be stated.
Concept introduction:

- Could a percent transmittance reading of 0.00 be used in calculations.? Yes or no and explain why.arrow_forwardA)What absorbance value corresponds to 80% transmittance? B)What is the new % transmittance value if the absorbance value in A increases by 0.250?arrow_forwardBy what factor will you change the concentration as you monitor the absorbance/transmittance of the solution?arrow_forward
- A 0.0140 M solution of a certain analyte exhibits 49.8% T' at a wavelength of 280 nm. What will the percent transmittance be for a 0.0252 M solution of the same analyte? Assume the pathlengths for each measurement are equal.arrow_forward3 How do I calculate the standard deviation of background (baseline) on the UV-Vis absorbance measurement?arrow_forwardAs a forensic toxicologist, you have been given a task on determining amount of cadmium, mercury, chromium, copper and lead metal contents in medicinal herbs using flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Hollow cathode lamp (HCL) was selected as radiation source for this analysis. The highest concentration came from lead element followed by chromium and copper, however cadmium and mercury were not detected in the sample. a) Based on your knowledge, conclude whether the above result is valid or not. b) If you are given an option of electrothermal or flame atomizer for above case study, determine which one is suitable and justify your answer.arrow_forward

- The measurement of Li in brine (salt water) is used by geochemists to help determine the origin of this fluid in oil fields. Flame atomic absorption of Li is subject to interference by other elements. Atomic absorption of analysis of replicate sample of Li in a brine sample gave results in the table. a. Suggest a reason for the increasing apparent concentration of Li from sample 1 to 2. b. Suggest a reason for the increasing apparent concentration of Li from sample 1 to 3 c. Why do samples 4-6 give a nearly constant result? (What type of interference you think is being eliminated?arrow_forwardWhy should absorbance be less than 2?
