When the electron returns to a lower level, a photon with that energy difference is emitted. The peaks in the emission spectra are very sharp and known as line spectra. This emission spectra can be used in identification of elements because the spectra is different for each element. Materials: 1. Spectrum tubes (known and unknown) 2.
Fractions 1,2, and 3 were all separated by column/flash chromatography and their purities were measured with the TLC plate. One suggestion for future labs would be to use more accurate measuring tools. Post lab 1. So the solvent would not reflect the UV rays, therefore creating a dark spot on the luminescent TLC plate. This dark spot helps us measure how much the solvent moved on the TLC plate.
It operates by the passage of a light beam (a stream of photons) through a sample and the measurement of that light intensity by the spectrophotometer detector. When the photon is encountered by the analyte, there is the chance of photon absorption which reduces the light intensity that originally entered the solution (5). The λmax value yield by the solution absorbance spectrum provides information on the electronic structure of the analyte as the wavelength at λmax is characteristic to that solution. The Beer’s lambert Law relates the amount of light absorbed to the concentration of the solution absorbing the light as the linear relationship (2): A = A(1%1cm) x c x l Where A represents the Absorbance of the solution at λmax, A(1%1cm) is the Absorbance Coefficient (mg-1cm2) , c represents the Concentration (mg cm3) and l is the path length of
Liam Stephenson controlled assessment Introduction In my course work I will be looking at how the thickness of a converging lens affects the focal length. The factors involved in this experiment are: light, lens curvature, refraction and thickness of the lens, these will determine the focal length; the focal length is the length between the focus and the lens. Light-visible light is an electromagnetic wave in the electromagnetic spectrum The speed of light depending on the medium it is in, for example the speed of light is 300,000 km/s however when light travels through other medium such as water or glass the speed of light is slowed this is because water and glass is denser than a vacuum of air. Due to it being more dense and a change in speed, the direction of the wave will change this is
Radiographic film on the opposite side of the source is exposed when it is struck by radiation passing through the objects being tested. More radiation will pass through if there are cracks, breaks, or other flaws in the metal parts and will be recorded on the film. By studying the film, structural problems can be detected. Co-60 is used because it is an emitter of gamma rays which will penetrate metal parts. Co-60 has a half-life of 5.3 years and can be used in a chemically inert form held inside a sealed container.
If the quantum dots are placed in the cavity, the spot on the wafers where there are no crystals, in the middle, and capture electrons then the aims of the process are a success. (Hennessey Interview) Kevin explains that you want to then put the process material into devices. This control of powerful light in this small cavity is what causes much speculation. The new devices which use this method are called quantum effect devices. According to Kevin, lasers and lights could be replaced with this technology.
The coil is the part of the machine that will actually make it work, by giving of a radio frequency. The scanner uses hydrogen atoms to tell the difference between different tissues. MRI scanners will use ‘spin’ which is a property in the machine which can tell the differences between tissues, such as fat, tendons, and muscle. Once the MRI scanner is turned on and the patient is in ready to be scanned the nuclei of the hydrogen atoms in the machine can spin in one of two different directions. The hydrogen atom nuclei can change the direction of spin to the opposite direction.
Force Fields Summary Response In Michio Kaku’s article “Force Fields”, he explains how a force field can deflect laser beams. Throughout out his article Kaku shows that future science might be able to provide the same technology as science fiction TV shows such as Star Trek because he believes that science would overcome issues of limited technology. In order for force field function correctly he suggests that there has to have three layers. The outer layer is high temperature plasma created by supercharged plasma window. The middle layer is a group of laser beams.
When two different atoms are bonded together, each attracts the electrons differently like a tug-of-war between two unequal teams, producing a dipole. The positive part of one molecule is then attracted to the negative part of another molecule. The shape of a molecule also contributes to the formation of a dipole. Molecules containing three or more atoms may be linear in shape or bent. Depending on how symmetrical or how bent the molecule is, the formation of a dipole in molecules will differ.
The magnetic field permeates the tissue and causes the nucleus scale magnets in the tissues to rotate. By observing what frequencies are absorbed by the atoms the doctors can determine what sorts of atoms are present at a particular place in the body. 2. Explain how a sound is actually a form of energy? In what medium do sound waves travel?
