1. Which of the following is the principle of Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy?
a) Radiation is absorbed by non-excited atoms in vapour state and are excited to higher states
b) Medium absorbs radiation and transmitted radiation is measured
c) Colour is measured
d) Colour is simply observed ?
Answer: a) Explanation: Atoms in gaseous state absorb the radiation and are excited to a higher state. Since the higher state is unstable the atom returns the groundstate with the emission of radiation which is measured
The atomic number is determined by the number of ...
protons
