Test 2 Flashcards
sig figs for 5
(any integer) 0
T eq
P/Po
A eq (not beers law)
A = -logT OR log(P0/P)
rule for log sig figs
log(x) = 1.x
P
Watts/cm^2
molar absorptivity units
1/cm*M
chemical deviations from beers law
epsilon changes for indicator reactions, intermolecular complexes created due to high conc
pKa
can give you Ka for ratio
instrumental deviation from beers law
stray light or polychromatic light
stray light eq and info
more stray decreases signal (A), A= log ((Po + Ps)/(P + Ps))
polychromatic light deviation
can be up or down from linear, add the initial powers of light over the other powers of both for T
light sources
H/D lamps visible light, Xenon peaks at 500 nm, W goes up to 2500 nm
Noise sources for spectrometer
source, absorption, intensity loss from wavelength selection, photoelectric transducer noise (all propagate)
silicon photodiode
silicon chip with a depleted layer (pn junction) that radiation can enter and go to the electrodes. used for low radiation, portable. more sensitive than a phototube but less than a photomultiplier tube
CCD vs multichannel photon detectors
CCD is 2d (grid is scanned) while multichannel is 1D (rows in a line)
double beam reduces..
fluctuation, deviation from source wavelength (simultaneous)
photodiode array
double beam, fast response (good for kinetics). multiple photodiodes form an array and circuit. they act as pixels, 1000ish together does the whole spectrum very quickly (simultaneously)
I and Io
dependent for double beam, independent for single beam
dependent values prop of error for A
A = log Io - log I
error in single and double beam
error compounds for single beam, it cancels to 0 for double
error canceling equation
sigmaA^2 = sigma(logIo)^2 + sigma(logI)^2 - 2sigma(ab) using the errors
error through spectrometry equation
Sf = Ilamp* L* Sample * Spt
calculating molar absorptivity
8.7x10^19(P)(A) where P is transitional probability (0-1), A is target cross sectional area for photon of whatever wavelength to interact with, around 10^-15 cm^2 for organic molecules
quantum jump
e- changing energy levels. prob determined by transitional prob, below 0.01 not happening, 0.1to 1ok
solvent effects
can make peaks more diffuse due to strong solvent interactions
why is absorption good for quantitative analysis
widely applicable, sensitive (10^-4-10^-7 M), fairly selective, 1-3% uncertainty, easy to do.
method for spectrometry
find lamba max, look at variables: solvent, pH, temp, electrolytes, interfering species, then clean cell before using
standard addition use
reduces matrix effects
standard addition procedure
usually 5 replicates, know volume and the amount of standard added to learn the initial concentration
beers law graph SHOULD
pass through 0
sig figs for error
should match the # for the value
deuterium vs hydrogen lamps
continuum, UV. deuterium creates a more intense light
filter vs monochromator
filters are cheaper and retain intensity, but are specific to a wavelength. monochromators can be adjusted but leads to a drop in intensity and more costly
photovoltaic cells
visible light range, common. copper or iron with semiconductor layer, and gold or silver outside that which e- liberated at semiconductor Flow through so current tells us # of e-. cheap, but low resistance and fatigue (current dec during continued use)
phototubes
resistance is high so they can amplify. voltage of e- goes through wires to anode, when saturated the amount of current corresponds to light intensity. made for many ranges of light nm
photomultiplier tube
light hits a small area and disturbs e- which disturb surrounding e- in the material, amplifying the signal.con: cannot take intense light
time vs space double beam
time needs 1 detector, space needs 2
photometers vs spectrophotometers
photometers use filters, spectro use monochromators
multichannel spectrophotometers
very fast, use electronic rather than manual scanning
titration stages
in A + T gives P, at start all A, then A + P, then all P at endpoint and past endpoint T + P
inconsistencies with Einsteins calculations
atoms do not necessarily start with all atoms at ground state
eigenstate
value for an e- at which it can exist, only has specific quantities (stable)
scattering
energy goes in and instantly leaves
stimulated emission
light enters and emission occurs
virtue states
unstable values at which an e- can exist (leads to scattering)
phosphorescence is when..
singlet state moves to triplet.
singlet state
all e- paired, no split orbitals on magnetic contact (diamagnetic)
diamagnetic
0 net magnetic field, e- are stably repelled by their respective fields
paramagnetic
moment of attraction w magnetic field due to unpaired e-
spin multiplicity =
2S +1 (for e- of same spin)
triplet state
e- unpaired, spin multiplicity, more stable than singlet even when excited
delta S =
0 (magnetic QNs should add to 0)
lines on Jablonski diagram are..
Eigenstates
internal conversion
molecule dec energy state by intramolecular processes
singlet vs triplet radiation
singlet is very short(<10-5 s) triplet is longer (10-5 to full seconds)
fluorescence vs phosphorescence
f has high quantum yield, can work in most temperatures and 0 e- spin and singlet-singlet transition shorter than 10-5 sec, p has low quantum yield at low temp and +/-1 e- spin, singlet state moves to triplet (longer than 10-5 sec).
