usually refers to methods in which the stimulus is heat or electrical energy

a form of energy that is transmitted through space at enormous velocities

the light we can see, ranging from violet to red

we measure the amount of light absorbed as a function of wavelength

is another way to describe electromagnetic radiation. It is most often used to describe radiation in the infrared region

is a vector quantity that provides a measure of the electric or magnetic field strength at a maximum in the wave

stray radiation is commonly called ____

electromagnetic radiation can be treated as discrete packets of energy or particles called _____

The energy associated with electromagnetic radiation covers a wide range of magnitude as do the corresponding frequencies and wavelengths

it lies between visible light and x-rays and also used in UV visible spectroscopy to study organic transitions in molecules

what are the most important forms of photoluminescence for analytical purposes

unit of frequency

the distance between identical points

refers to excitation of the analyte by a chemical reaction

literally multicolored light, is light of many wavelengths

highest energy, highest frequency, shortest wavelength

Lowest energy, lowest frequency, longest wavelength.

Lower energy, longer wavelengths.

This states that the concentration of a substance if directly proportional to the amount of light absorbed or inversely proportional to the logarithm of transmitted light

the number of oscillations that occur in one second

is the time in seconds for successive maxima or minima to pass a point in space.

a particle of epectromagnetic radiation HAVING ZERO MASS and ENERGY of hv

are spectroscopic methods based on ultraviolet, visible, and infrared radiation

used to study atomic structures and medical imaging

electromagnetic radiation can be described as ____ with properties of wavelength, frequency, velocity and amplitude

Used in IR spectroscopy to study molecular vibrations and identify functional groups in organic molecules

the visible region of the spectrum from about 400nm to almost 800nm

the emission of photons is measured

used in analytical chemistry, and provide a wide range of quantitative and qualitative information

the visible region of spectrum

defined as radiation from the instrument that is outside the nominal wavelength band chosen for the determination

transmitted via electromagnetic waves that are characterized by their frequency and wavelength

tells us quantitatively how the amount of attenuation depends on the concentration of the absorbing molecules and the path length over which absorption occurs

The velocity of the wave front through a medium depends on both the medium and the frequency
