Visible and Ultraviolet Spectroscopy (Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning)

By Ronald C. Denney

Introduces the fundamentals of the theory and practice of ultraviolet/visible spectrometry for both qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis. Covers basic concepts of the production of colored substances in various reactions, their relationship to characteristic wavelengths of light in the visible region of the spectrum, how color is related to chemical structure, and the manner in which various chemical groups can lead to changes in maximum absorption values. Details the quantitative aspects of ultraviolet/visible absorption spectra and the laws governing the development and use of calibration curves for quantitative analysis. Discusses instrumentation, and includes fully worked examples, practical problems, and suggested experiments.
