    What does this plot mean? What's our interpretation?
    As you can see, the absorbance is relatively high for wavelengths below 600, but 600 above is not absorbed and hence, transmitted.
    So the photons reaching your eyes from going through this solution, mostly have wavelengths between 600 and above and hence, the red color.
    I hope this helped a bit.

    • @exotica5537
      @exotica5537 12 днів тому

      There is no changes happening inside the spectrophotometer per se. When blanking you basically give manually the 100% value. Same thing when you do the zeroing when empty. These manually introduced values will serve as the two extreme reference points to which the spectrophotometer will compare your sample in order to give the relative value. Hope this answers.

  • @rrbuff1960
    @rrbuff1960 12 років тому +3

    I am not totally sure of your question here. The sample concentration is irrelevant for this activity. If you plot wavelength on x axis (380, 405, 430 nm....... ) versus the measured absorbance on the y axis you will find the wavelength of maximum absorbance, called lambda max. Each color has its own lambda max. That is the goal for this particular lab.

    2..if 10% is transmitted then 90% should be absorbed or used anywhere else?

    • @jennifermiranda6998
      @jennifermiranda6998 Рік тому

      I was thinking the same thing. If the dilutions are made of the same solution, then why vary the wavelength? That and/or molar absorptivity should be the same, unless again, the samples are different. Also, no need to place the blank every time you run a sample made of the same solution (but only being diluted). Blank should be read again if you are running a different solution sample. Again, that's just me. I think they did these customizations for demonstration purposes.

      zodd0001 fking yeah, i build an automatic spectrophotometer in my bedroom pretty much the size of a cigarette box that can connect to my cellphone via non standard bitbanged infrared signals using an adaptor in the audio jack to send commands to the spec microcontroller and receive the digital data via the jack microphone input, i spend 50usd in it and the result is pretty much high grade lab quality.

    • @fss1704
      @fss1704 6 років тому

      Theoretically you can do the read using an USB sound adaptor and bypass the input cap on the microphone, then use the sound output of a moving loudspeaker with a prism glued on top to filter the light, and a photodiode in the mic input to read the level of absorbance on each wavelenght.

    u don't have to set the transmittance to zero before putting in the blank, since the trans/abs will be changed to either 0 or 100 after putting in the blank solution. this extra step is confusing and unnecessary...
