1.

Show the order (from short to long wavelength) for the UV/Vis absorption band (π
→π*) of benzene, toluene, phenol, 3-nitrophenol, 4-nitrophenol. Explain your
answer.
2. UV/Vis can be used for protein quantitative analysis. Explain why?
3. Please propose a chemiluminescence method for analyzing protein content in a
sample of milk powder.
4. Explain why 8-hydroxyquinoline can be used to detect aluminum ion by
fluorescence spectroscopy.
5. The C=O stretching frequency of vaporized acetic acid varied with its
concentration. Explain why.
6. Draw all the vibrational modes for SO2.
7. A He/Ne laser with a wavelength of 632.8 nm is usually equipped in an FT-IR
spectrometry. Can we replace the He/Ne laser by a laser emitted 1000 nm
radiation? Explain.
8. Photoacoustic IR spectroscopy is rarely used. But some samples have to use
photoacoustic IR spectroscopy to obtain a good quality IR spectrum. Describe
properties of such samples.
9. Attenuated total reflectance – Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) has been used
frequently. Ge, Si, and ZnSe are commonly used as ATR crystal for detection.
Please compare the performances between these crystals in ATR-IR detection.
10. What are the advantages of FT-Raman compared to dispersive Raman
spectrometry?
