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

Essay 1: Light and Color The fascinating properties of light are not all detectable to humans‚ because our reference is mostly limited to what we can see. In order to determine the atomic/molecular composition of a fluid or gas‚ one must consult an emission and absorption spectrum. The properties of this spectrum include also waves‚ which can be any length‚ and define the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. Ranging from gamma rays to radio waves‚ an electromagnetic spectrum includes each

FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS Heat transfer is energy in transit‚ which occurs as a result of temperature gradient or difference. This temperature difference is thought of as a driving force that causes heat to flow.

HEAT TRANSFER MECHANISMS Heat energy is being transferred from one location to another because of a temperature difference. The three mechanisms for heat transfer are: • Conduction. When you grip the hot handle of a pan on a stove‚ you feel conduction in action. Heat flows from the pan and along the length of the handle to its cooler free end. This is because one end of the rod is held at the high temperature‚ and the other end stays at the lower temperature. Although the rod itself doesn’t

1. INTRODUCTION An engine is a device which transforms one form of energy into another form. Most of the engines convert thermal engine to mechanical work and therefore they are called heat engine. Heat engine can be broadly classified into two types. i. Internal combustion engine ii. External combustion engine 1.1 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE:- This type of engine is again classified into two types. i. Rotary ii. Reciprocating The reciprocating engine is a highly complex

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

X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) techniques probe short- and medium-range order‚ yielding information on bond lengths‚ coordination numbers‚ local coordination geometry and the oxidation state of atoms for a wide range of solid and liquid systems. XAS experiments require an intense‚ tunable photon source only available at synchrotrons. Features • medium and high energy (from atomic number Z=20 upwards) XAS‚ XANES (x-ray absorption near-edge structure)

radiation is one of the three ways in which heat is transferred. In convection‚ heat can be exchanged from one fluid to another. In this experiment‚ a heated plate is in contact with air inside a rectangular cross section duct. The air is heated by conduction from the heated plate. The density of the air decreases as it is heated and this makes the warm air rise. Colder air‚ which in turn is less dense‚ then replaces the warmer air‚ which has risen. The plate then heats this colder air‚ which will eventually

The Absorption Spectrum of Cobalt(II) Chloride Thang Dinh Lab partner: Alex Yang CHM 151 – 102 11/17/2014 Introduction: Many compounds absorb a certain spectrum of visible light. Since Beer’s Law describe the relationship between molar absorptivity and concentration‚ one could use his equation A = kc to find the unknown concentration by the known absorptivity. The graph of absorption spectrum is represented by a linear regression. From the graph‚ one could deduct that as the concentration decreases
