Infrared spectroscopy

criminal investigations, which can be aided by infrared spectroscopy. IR spectroscopy deals with the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This region is light with a longer wavelength and lower frequency than visible light. (Wikipedia) IR Spectroscopy is a method to identify substances based on their absorption of infrared wavelengths. It is a study of how the molecules of substances can absorb infrared radiation and convert it into heat. (Cole) A machine called an infrared spectrometer applies infrared rays to a substance to record the number of wavelengths absorbed by said substance. (Cole) This works because of covalent bonds within substances. These bonds can be viewed as stiff springs that can be stretched and bent. (Ki) They vibrate at different amounts of energy and at a frequency that depends on the mass of the atom and strength of the bond. (Ki) the mass is larger, the frequency is lower. Also, stronger bonds yield higher frequencies. (Ki)…

When EPR spectroscopy is applied, two types of paramagnetic signals have been observed. The low field signal with g = 2.0023 and the other high field signal at g ˜1.96, both are associated with unpaired electrons trapped on oxygen vacancies. It is found that the intensity of low field paramagnetic signal increases with increase in thermolysis rate. In addition to bulk point defects ?Zn?_i and V_o, other defects like V_zn and O_i can be thermodynamically stabilized at higher oxygen partial…

products was obtained. The mass of 4-NBB, the para product, was 1.57 grams, while the mass of 2-NBB, the ortho product, was 0.80 grams. The para product was expected to have the higher yield, since it is more stable and consequently harder to break down throughout the experiment. Keywords Nitration, Bromobenzene, Substitution, 4-nitrobromobenzene, 2-nitrobromobenzene, Column Chromatography, Infrared spectrum, Thin-Layer Chromatography. Introduction This experiment…

the solution. Scientists accomplish this by using the technique of spectroscopy; spectroscopy can be defined as the science affiliated with the spectra produced when matter interacts with light. Lab 7 investigation 19, “What Factors Affect the Intensity of Color?” expands on the process of spectroscopy, and its relation to the molarity of a substance. The goal of this lab was to determine the effects of the intensity of color of a solution (2). Spectroscopy is frequently used in the medical…

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to extract ethyl cinnamate, cinnamic acid, and glucose, which are ingredients in the candy, Red Hots. The experiment began with 0.604 grams of a mixture of ethyl cinnamate, cinnamic acid, and glucose. The purity of glucose and ethyl cinnamate was measured through IR Spectroscopy. Melting point was used to determine the purity for cinnamic acid. Using the final amount for each ingredient, we determined the percent yields, which were 64.7% for glucose,…

Types of Spectroscopy used in Organic Chemistry 1.1 Introduction Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between matter and light (electromagnetic radiation) (Crouch & Skoog, 2007). It is often phrased as the light of knowledge (Reusch, 2013). In the past, spectroscopy started by the study of visible light dispersed according to its wavelength by a prism (Anon., n.d.). Now, with the knowledge of light having both wave-like and particle-like characteristics, with given frequency or…

This lab was performed to both introduce and practice extraction techniques along with any procedures associated. The specific extraction employed used the different reactivates of the components with an acid and a base to produce products that are more soluble in water at different stages. Other methods included filtration of mixtures, obtaining a compound’s melting point, and using infrared spectroscopy to analyze a compounds structure. Since no initial masses were given, percent yield cannot…

Both IR and UV spectroscopy are methods of measuring the wavelengths absorbed by a tested material. IR spectroscopy measures the absorbance of the tested material in the infrared spectrum, the section of the electromagnetic spectrum with a lower frequency than that observed in the visible light spectrum. Conversely, UV spectroscopy measures the absorbance of the tested material in the ultraviolet spectrum, the section of the electromagnetic spectrum with a higher frequency than that observed in…

only the black line. Object following robot: Finally, lets create a obstacle following robot. As like the other switch robots, for object following robot, we need to place the sensors at the front side of the robot. each robot creation, will be involved with a certain concept from our general Physics and some times, we experience them in our daily routine too, but we couldn’t relate them. Now, let’s try understand the concepts involved in this robot creation. In this robot, we have implemented 4…

Abstract In this paper CuO-NH-NH2 nanoparticle was synthesized and used to remove anionic dyes from single and binary systems. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the nanoparticle. Direct Red 80 (DR80) and Direct Green 6 (DG6) were used as anionic dyes. The effect of adsorbent dosage, dye concentration and pH on dye removal was evaluated. Kinetic…
