Wavelength
T = I/Io = 10.k l c
Abs = log (1/T) = log (Io/I) = k l c
log T = - l c or log T = l c
log T is also defined as absorbance (A) or optical density
(OD), thus log T = A = l c.
is defined as the molar absorbtivity and the concentration
is given in mol/liter (also called the molar extinction
coefficient).
If the concentration is given in grams/liter, is replaced by a,
the specific absorbtivity.
Qualitative Analysis
Spectrum and Chemical Structure
Colorimetric Analysis
(Quantitative Analysis)
The methods for performing quantitative
analysis by comparing color darkness of
substance is called colorimetric analysis.
When the substance is transparent, if
absorbance exists in the visible and
ultraviolet, it is measured.

In atomic absorption :
The only function of the flame is to convert
the sample aerosol into atomic vapor
which can then absorb light from the
primary light source (hollow cathode lamp
or discharge lamp).
FLAMES
There are oxidant and fuel gas
combination used in atomic absorption
is air acetylene.
Other flames that can be used are air
hydrogen, nitrous oxide acetylene
and argon hydrogen entrained air.
AIR - ACETYLENE
Can be used for determination of
approximately 35 elements
The temperature is about 2300 oC
The acetylene flow is about 4 liters/minute
The air flow is about 24 liters/minute
For many elements, the fuel/oxidant gas
ratio must be adjusted for maximum
sensitivity.
