Explain will a slower chemical reaction be expected to give a semilog absorbance/time plot with a slope that is more shallow or steeper that is closer to or further from the horizon than one that is faster?
1. Explain what is meant by the term doublet in the description, as well as why does this occur in potassium?
2. Compute the ratio of atoms in the 4p states all three to those is the 4s state for a flame temperature of 2800K
3. Potassium can be determined by flame-AES or flame-AAS, however the signal in Flame-AES is very noisy. Define why this is so and also why ICP-AES achieves a less noisy signal.
