    Study Notes

    Electromagnetic Radiation

    • Electromagnetic radiation is a form of energy that travels in the form of electromagnetic waves.
    • These waves propagate through the electromagnetic field and can transmit energy through space.

    Frequency in Electromagnetic Radiation

    • Frequency in electromagnetic radiation measures the number of oscillations or cycles per second.
    • It is typically measured in units of hertz (Hz).

    Absorption, Emission, and Scattering in Spectroscopy

    • Absorption is the process by which electromagnetic radiation is absorbed by a substance.
    • Emission is the process by which electromagnetic radiation is emitted by a substance.
    • Scattering is the process by which electromagnetic radiation is deflected in different directions.
    • The purpose of absorption, emission, and scattering in spectroscopy is to analyze the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation.

    Spectroscopy

    • Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation.
    • It involves the analysis of the absorption, emission, and scattering of electromagnetic radiation by molecules or atoms.

    Amplitude in a Wave

    • Amplitude in a wave measures the maximum displacement or intensity of the wave from its equilibrium position.
    • It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.
