Answer #1

a) effect on the excited state population:The absorbtion and emission signal is proportional to the population of excited levels ,so a high temperature is required(around 5000 kelvin)

b) effect on the absorption and emission signal:The atomizer is only needed to atomize the sample,but electronic excitation is done by an external line light source.Consequently,a too high temperature of the atomizer is inadvantageous because ionization of many of the sample atom like alkali would also occur.

Naïve users of spectroscopy often think that the intensity of a transition is a direct function of the energy of the transition. Can you conjecture why this misconception is so common? Is it completely wrong? What is the common factor (quantum mechanically) that relates to the intensity of a spectroscopic transition either by absorption or emission? The spontaneous emission is inversely proportional to the lifetime of the excited state ( check units of Aij ). Might there be some tie...

You are analysing Ca levels in the Canning River using atomic emission spectroscopy. When taking your samples you notice a large microalgal bloom nearby suggesting the presence of a large amount of phosphate in the river. Explain if the phosphate will have an effect on your analysis and, if so, what steps can you take to deal with this?

Consider the following statements as they apply to atomic absorption spectroscopy. Decide if each is true or false. True or False  The lower the surface tension of a solution, the smaller the droplets formed in the nebulizer. True or False  In flame AAS, a liquid sample is sucked into the flame because of the pressure drop created by the flow of gas around the tip of the capillary tube (the Bernoulli effect). True or False  Electrothermal AAS is a much more sensitive technique...

. The concentration of chloride ions can be determined indirectly using atomic absorption spectroscopy. An excess of silver ions is added to each standard and sample and a silver chloride precipitate forms. The samples are centrifuged and the supernatant is aspirated into the instrument. A silver hollow cathode lamp is used as the source. For this analysis, 5 mL of 0.1 M AgNO3 was added to each standard and sample. a. Use the following data to determine the concentration of...

In an experiment using flame atomic absorption spectroscopy, the goal is to examine how certain compounds that may be present in samples, can create interferences. You start with with a 10ppm calcium standard, and measure the absorbance. (Concentration readout is 0.105 mg/L), You add two drops of PO43- (phosphate) to the standard, and measure the absorbance. (Concentration readout is now 8.400 mg/L) Finally, you add 5 drops of La2+ (lanthanum) and measure absorbance. (Concentration readout is now 10.700 mg/L) a)...
