4. Atomic Structure and Bonding Flashcards
1
Q
What frequency does a short wavelength have?
A
A high frequency (v)
2
Q
What wavelength is ultraviolet light?
A
Short wavelength
3
Q
What wavelength is infrared?
A
Long wavelength
4
Q
What region is visible light?
A
760nm (red) - 380nm (blue)
5
Q
What is transmittance?
A
The fraction of the light that passes through, it is always less than 1. If transmittance = 1 that is 100% transmittance.
6
Q
If transmittance is high that what is the absorbance like?
A
The absorbance would be low. When transmittance =1, absorbance = 0
