Qualitative Analysis

The process of identifying an unknown compound.

Spectroscopy

A technique used to identify an unknown substance by analyzing its interaction with light.

Ultraviolet-Visible Spectrophotometry

A type of spectroscopy that uses ultraviolet and visible light to identify a compound based on its absorption properties.

Study Notes

Qualitative Analysis

  • Qualitative analysis identifies compounds with unknown or partial identity.
  • Powerful tools include UV, visible, and infrared spectroscopy.
  • Measurements may combine spectroscopic and physical property data (e.g., melting point).
  • Spectroscopic measurements alone can also be used.
