1. What is a Spectrophotometer?
A Spectrophotometer is an analytical instrument used to measure the intensity of light absorbed or transmitted by a sample at specific wavelengths. It operates across various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as UV, visible, or infrared. This measurement is widely used in chemical, biological, and industrial applications for both qualitative and quantitative analysis.
2. How does a Spectrophotometer work?
The Spectrophotometer passes light through a sample and measures how much light is absorbed or transmitted, helping identify and quantify substances in the sample. The instrument compares the intensity of light before and after it passes through the sample. Based on this difference, it calculates absorbance, which is directly related to concentration using Beer-Lambert’s law.
3. What is wavelength range, and why is it important in a Spectrophotometer?
The wavelength range in a Spectrophotometer determines which part of the electromagnetic spectrum the instrument can analyze, affecting what substances can be detected. A broader wavelength range allows for the analysis of a wider variety of compounds, from UV to visible regions.Selecting the correct wavelength is crucial for achieving accurate and sensitive measurements of specific analytes.
