Application of Fluorescence Spectroscopy in Chemical Oceanography: Tracing Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) Erika Mae A. Espejo 3rd year‚ BS Chemistry‚ University of the Philippines‚ Diliman Abstract Dissolved organic matter (DOM)‚ the fraction passing through a 0.45 µm membrane filter‚ is considered poorly understood mixture of organic polymers because of its complexity. Although it largely influences a lot of biogeochemical processes in aquatic environments‚ its characterization is not

BEER’S LAW EXPERIMENT 3 Amanda Buchanan – September 20‚ 2015 Chemistry 1212 – Section 50 OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this experiment are to understand why and how spectroscopy is used to determine the components and concentrations of a solution‚ describe various types of spectroscopy‚ describe the visible and ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum‚ define Beer’s law and define the relationship between absorbance and transmittance. Other learning objectives are to create a Beer’s

Absorption Spectroscopy Author: Lab Partners: Instructor: Chem 152 Date Work Performed: Date Work Submitted: Abstract A Beer’s Law analysis was used to determine the molar absorptivity of a Red-40 food dye. Using a spectrometer‚ the best wavelength to use for the analysis of this dye was determined to be 501nm. A series of dilutions were performed and the concentrations were calculated to find ‘E‚’ the molar absorptivity‚ which was determined to be 18035 M-1 cm-1. Introduction

2.7 Raman spectroscopy Principle: Raman spectroscopy is based on the use of a laser light to induce oscillation and rotation in human fluids containing glucose. Because the emission of scattered light is influenced by molecular vibration‚ it is possible to estimate glucose concentration in human fluids [24]. This effect depends on the concentration of the glucose molecules. This technique can measure very weak signals‚ even in human fluids. The wavelength range of Raman spectrum is considered to

first country to use an atomic bomb on another country‚ and the U.S. is still the only country to have ever used an atomic bomb. The U.S. dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima‚ Japan on August 6‚ 1945 and dropped another atomic bomb on Nagasaki‚ Japan on August 9‚ 1945. 70‚000 died instantly in Hiroshima and 80‚000 died instantly in Nagasaki. Even though the U.S. destroyed many Japanese lives the atomic bombing of Hiroshima was the right decision. However dropping the second atomic bomb on Nagasaki was

Models of the Atom: a Historical Perspective John Dalton Early Greek Theories • 400 B.C. - Democritus thought matter could not be divided indefinitely. • This led to the idea of atoms in a void. fire Democritus • 1800 -Dalton proposed a modern atomic model based on experimentation not on pure reason. All matter is made of atoms. Atoms of an element are identical. Each element has different atoms. Atoms of different elements combine in constant ratios to form compounds. • Atoms are rearranged in
