Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of information can be obtained from UV-Vis spectroscopy?
  • Step 1: Understand that UV-Vis spectroscopy is a technique that measures how much light is absorbed by a sample.
  • Step 2: Know that the technique uses ultraviolet (UV) and visible (Vis) light wavelengths.
  • Step 3: Realize that different substances absorb light at different wavelengths.
  • Step 4: Learn that by measuring the absorbance at specific wavelengths, we can determine how much of a substance (analyte) is present in the sample.
  • Step 5: Remember that the amount of light absorbed is related to the concentration of the analyte in the solution.
