Questions and Answers

What is the main principle behind spectrophotometric analysis?

  • Absorption of electromagnetic radiation
  • Attenuation of electromagnetic radiation (correct)
  • Scattering of electromagnetic radiation
  • Reflection of electromagnetic radiation
  • How is electromagnetic radiation described?

  • By referring to its wavelength or frequency (correct)
  • By its color and shape
  • By its speed and direction
  • By its density and pressure
  • What is the function of a spectrophotometer in measuring absorbance?

  • Generates electromagnetic power for the sample
  • Measures the speed of light passing through the sample
  • Separates light into its component wavelengths and selectively measures the intensity of the light (correct)
  • Analyzes the color of the sample
  • What does transmittance measure?
