Spectroscopy
Spectroscopy is the use ofthe absorption, emission, or scattering of electromagnetic
radiation by matterto qualitatively or quantitatively analyze or study the matter or to
study physical processes. The matter can be atoms, molecules, atomic or molecular
ions, or solids. The interaction of radiation with matter can cause redirection of the
radiation and/or transitions between the energy levels of the atoms or molecules.
Beer-Lambert Law: Beer-Lambert law or simply Beers law is the heartof spectrometry. Consider the absorption of monochromatic radiation as in
Figure. Incident radiation of radiant power P0 passes through a solution of an
absorbing species a concentration c and path length b, and the transmitted
radiation has radiant power P.
Transmittance (T), is defined as:
A new term absorbance is defined as :

The figure shows the case of absorption of light through a sample cell and includes other processes
that decreases the transmittance such as surface reflectance and scattering. For a monochromaticlight absorbance is proportional to path length b, and concentration of absorbing species c.
Instrumentation
General aspects of UV-Vis spectrophotometers are given in the introductory document on UV-Vis
spectroscopy. Single-beam spectrophotometers can utilize a fixed wavelength light source or a
continuous source. The simplest instruments use a single-wavelength light source, such as a light-emitting diode (LED), a sample container, and a photodiode detector. Instruments with a
continuous source have a dispersing element and aperture or slit to select a single wavelength
before the light passes through the sample cell. (see schematic below).

In either type of single-beam instrument, the instrument is calibrated with a reference cell
containing only solvent to determine the Po value necessary for an absorbance measurement.

Ultraviolet/Visible (UV-Vis) Spectroscopy of Potassium Permanganate
Potassium permanganate is used to kill bacteria in reclaimed water
Use UV-Vis to ensure that the concentration of Potassium Permanganate is at acceptable
limit Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in solution is purple / violet color meaning maximum
absorption should be at 500 550 nm, which is confirmed from the absorption spectrum ofpotassium permanganate at two different concentrations shown in the figure.

Potentiometry
Introduction
Potentiometry is the field ofelectroanalytical chemistry in which potential is measured under theconditions of no current flow. The measured potential may then be used to determine the analytical
quantity of interest, generally the concentration of some component of the analyte solution. The
potential that develops in the electrochemical cellis the result of thefree energy change that would
occur if the chemical phenomena were to proceed until the equilibrium condition has beensatisfied.
This concept is typically introduced in quantitative analysis courses in relation to electrochemical
cells that contain an anode and a cathode. For these electrochemical cells, thepotential difference
between the cathode electrode potentialand the anode electrode potential is the potential of theelectrochemical cell.
If the reaction is conducted understandard state conditions, this equation allows the calculation of
the standard cell potential. When the reaction conditions are not standard state, however, one mustutilize theNernst equation to determine the cell potential. In the following equations Ox stands for
oxidized species and Red for its reduced form. For example Cu2+ is oxidized form and Cu is
reduced form.

pH Meters
pH meter measures the pH of a solution using an ion-selective electrode (ISE) that responds to the
H+ concentration of the solution. The pH electrode produces a voltage that is a function of theconcentration of the H+ concentration, and making measurements with a pH meter is therefore a
form ofpotentiometry.
The pH electrode is attached to electronics which convert the voltage to a pH reading and displays
it on a meter.
The difference in concentration of hydrogen ions on both sides of membrane causes the potential
to develop. There are no half reactions and the Nernst equation can be written as:
E = Eo 0.0592 log {[H+]internal / [H+]external }
Since the internal [H+] is constant, it can be lumped into Eo
E = E* + 0.0592 log [H+]external
E = E* 0.0592 p[H+]

Instrumentation
A pH meter consists of a H+-selective membrane, an internal reference electrode, an external
reference electrode, and a meter with control electronics and display. Commercial pH electrodes
usually combine both electrodes into one unit that is then attached to the pH meter. The potentialscale is calibrated in pH units with each pH unit equal to 59.19 mV at 25 oC.The pH meter is
adjusted with the calibration knob with the help of a standard buffer.

Separation Techniques:Chromatography is a separations method that relies on differences in partitioning behaviorbetween a flowing mobile phase and a stationary phase to separate the the components in a
mixture.
A column (or other support like paper) holds the stationary phase and the mobile phase carries thesample through it. Sample components that partition strongly into the stationary phase spend agreater amount of time in the column and are separated from components that stay predominantly
in the mobile phase and pass through the column faster.

As the components elute from the column they can be quantified by a detector and/or collected for
further analysis. An analytical instrument can be combined with a separation method for on-lineanalysis. Examples of such "hyphenated techniques" include gas and liquid chromatography with
mass spectrometry (GC-MS and LC-MS).
GC: It is applied to volatile organic compounds. The mobile phase is a gas andthe stationary phase is usually a liquid on a solid support or sometimes a solidadsorbent.
Distribution of analytes between phases
http://teaching.shu.ac.uk/hwb/chemistry/tutorials/chrom/chrom1.htmThe distribution of analytes between phases can often be described quite simply. Ananalyte is in equilibrium between the two phases;
Amobile Astationary
The equilibrium constant, K, is termed thepartition coefficient; defined as themolar concentration of analyte in the stationary phase divided by the molarconcentration of the analyte in the mobile phase.

K = [A]s/[A]M = cS/cMWhere the bracketed terms are activities of solute A in the two phases. Weshall substitute c to represent molar analytical concentration. Ideally the cs isdirectly proportional to cM over a wide concentration range of solute.
The time between sample injection and an analyte peak reaching a detector at the end of the
column is termed the retention time (tR). Each analyte in a sample will have a different retentiontime. The time taken for the mobile phase to pass through the column is called tM (In the diagram
19.3 it is shown as unretained peak.
A term called the retention factor, k', (also known as capacity factor in old literature) is often used
to describe the migration rate of an analyte through a column. The retention factor for analyte A isdefined as;
k'A = (tR - tM )/ tM
tR and tM are easily obtained from a chromatogram. When an analytes retention factor is less thanone (note that it is never negative) elution is so fast that accurate determination of the retention
time is very difficult. High retention factors (greater than 20) mean that elution takes a very long
time. Ideally, the retention factor for an analyte is between one and five.
We define a quantity called theselectivity factor, , which describes the separation of two species(A and B) on the column;
= k 'B / k 'A
When calculating the selectivity factor, species A elutes faster than species B. The selectivity
factor is always greater than unity. The selectivity factor for two analytes in a column provides a
measure of how well the column will separate the two.

`The Theoretical Plate Model of ChromatographyThe plate model supposes that the chromatographic column is contains a largenumber of separate layers, called theoretical plates. Separate equilibrations of thesample between the stationary and mobile phase occur in these "plates". The analytemoves down the column by transfer of equilibrated mobile phase from one plate to
the next.
It is important to remember that the plates do not really exist; they areimaginary. The concept helps us understand the processes at work in thecolumn.They also serve as a way of measuring column efficiency, either by statingthe number of theoretical plates in a column, N (the more plates the better), or by
stating the plate height; the Height Equivalent to a Theoretical Plate (the smaller thebetter).If the length of the column is L, then the HETP is
HETP = L / N
The number of theoretical plates that a real column possesses can be found by examining a
chromatographic peak after elution;
where w1/2 is the peak width at half-height.However when peak width is measured at base line, the formula becomes:
As can be seen from this equation, columns behave as if they have different numbersof plates for different solutes in a mixture.

Liquid Chromatography (LC): It is used to separate analytes in solutionincluding metal ions. The mobile phase is a solvent and the stationary phase isa liquid on a solid support, a solid, or an ion-exchange resin.
