Spectrophotometry scattering reflectance Emmision Absorbtion transmitance EMR refractance raman
Characteristics of Light • Wavelength = distance between two peaks in a wave • l (lambda) is the symbol • Meters = m is the unit • Frequency = number of complete waves passing a given point per second • n (nu) is the symbol • Hertz = Hz = s-1 is the unit • Amplitude = A = measure of the intensity of the wave, “brightness” • l and n are inversely proportional • If one increases, the other decreases

This spectrum of a sunscreen lotion is in the ultraviolet region. UV-B is the shorter or higher energy and thus more harmful to skin.
All spectrometric methods use a range of wavelengths Instead of monochromatic Range called bandwidth . A narrower bandwidth represents better performance

CHECKING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SPECTROPHOTOMETER 1. Preparation of Blank: Measure accurately 10 ml of “Anal R” quality HCl of 36-46% concentration. Add it slowly to 400 ml distilled water filled in one litre volumetric flask. Make it up to mark with distilled water and mix it up well. 2. Preparation of sample Weigh exactly 22.2 gm of “Anal R” quality Cobalt Chloride(COCl2 ).Transfer into one litre volumetric flask. Dissolve it in 1% Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) and make it up to the mark. 3- measure the Transmittance/absorbance at wavelength 480 to 540 nm at 5nm interval. 4- Graph should be in increasing order up to 510-515nm wavelength and then in decreasing order
