In atomic spectrometry, elements present in a sample are converted into gaseous atoms by a process called atomisation. Their interaction with the radiation is measured. In this unit you would learn about Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) that concerns the absorption of radiation by the atomised analyte element in the ground state. The wavelength(s) of the radiation absorbed and the extent of the absorption form the basis of the qualitative and quantitative determination
