Background Information: Energy and electrons

If electrons move from a higher to a lower energylevel, the difference in energy will be released.

Wavelength and Energy

Balloon containing H2 and Cl2

DEMO1. Expose a balloon containing H2 and Cl2 to red light (≅ λ 650).2. Expose a balloon containing H2 and Cl2 to blue light (≅ λ

450).

Upon exposure to blue light, the bonds between H atoms and Clatoms are broken. When the atoms of H and Cl recombine to formmore stable HCl there is a release of energy and the balloon bursts.

• The shorter the wavelength, the greater its energy

Part 3. Solution Color and Light Interaction

• Determine if salt solution color is predictable based onthe cations interaction with visible light versus:

• Plot an absorption spectrum for each teamassigned salt solution

- placement of the cation’s element in the periodic table?

- the cation’s electron configuration?

- the cation’s ionic radius?

Color versus Periodic Table Position

Transition Post-transition

• Compare the color data of salt solutions containing cationsfrom transition and pre and post transition families

absorptivity factor • concentration • path length

Absorbance at λ =

• Concentration and path length are held constantwhile taking the sample’s absorption spectrum(Part 3)

Recording a spectrum

• Calibrate (0 absorbance and 100% transmission) thespectrophotomer with the blank every time you changethe λ before taking the absorbance of your sample

• Use the same sample and holder (cuvette) so thatsample concentration and path length are constant

• Record the solution color and the wavelength andcolor of the wavelengths of absorption andtransmission max

Light Absorbance vs. Transmission

Abs = 0 100% light transmitted

Abs = 1 10% light transmitted

ABSORBANCE = -LOG TRANSMITTANCE

• Absorbance reading values = 0 to 1.0 for minimal error

Absorbance vs. Transmission Spectrum

The identity of a solution can be determined from itsabsorption (or transmission) spectrum.

Beer-Lambert Law and Path Length

Path length and light absorbance are directlyproportional at a fixed wavelength and concentration.

• Different spectrophotometers have different pathlengths! Don’t change spectrophotometers in themiddle of an analysis (Parts 4 and 5)!

DEMO

Path length changes will result in a proportional change inabsorbance values if sample concentration is constant.

Absorbance readings will alter proportionately across allwavelengths; the spectrum pattern will not alter.

Path Length and Absorption Spectra

Absorbance and Path Length

Answer:• Use a constant sample holder (curvette) while

taking absorbance readings

• Don’t switch spectrophotometers!

Path length must be fixed for a calibration curve orabsorbance readings will be in error.

Q. How do you hold the path length constant?

Preparation of Calibration Curve

Prepare a set of solutions of known and accurateconcentration by diluting the team prepared andassigned 0.1 M solution

M1V1 = M2V2

5

The wavelength of max absorbance is typically chosen. Why?

Preparation of Calibration Curve

• Refer to the samples absorption spectrum to choose awavelength for the calibration curve

Changes in absorbance with changes in concentration aremaximum and the calibration curve line has a maximum slope.
