16
Q

Involves measurement of the light transmitted by a solution to determine the concentration of the light-absorbing substances in the solution

A

SPECTROPHOTOMETRY

17
Q

The device used to measure the wavelengths of the light or the intensity of radiation

A

SPECTROMETER

18
Q

Is an analytical instrument that is used to quantitatively measure the transmission or reflection of visible light, UV light, or infrared light.

A

SPECTROPHOTOMETER

19
Q

SPECTROPHOTOMETRY:
splits the monochromatic light into two components: one beam passes through sample, and other through a reference solution or blank

A

DOUBLE BEAM SPECTROPHOTOMETRY

20
Q

TYPES OF DOUBLE BEAM SPECTROPHOTOMETRY:
with 2 photodetectors, for the sample beam and reference beam

A

DOUBLE-BEAM IN SPACE

21
Q

TYPES OF DOUBLE BEAM SPECTROPHOTOMETRY:
1 photodetector; passes the monochromatic light through the sample cuvette then through the reference cuvette

A

DOUBLE-BEAM IN TIME

22
Q

SPECTROPHOTOMETRY:
Simplest type of an absorption spectrophotometer.
Designed to make one measurement at a time at one specified wavelength

A

SINGLE BEAM SPECTROPHOTOMETER

23
Q

SPECTROPHOTOMETRY:
It provides polychromatic light and must generate sufficient radiant energy or power to measure the analyte of interest

A

LIGHT/RADIANT SOURCE

24
Q

TYPES OF LIGHT SOURCE:
emits radiation that changes in intensity; widely used in the laboratory.
