|
|
measures concentration of the element by detecting absorption of electromagnetic radiation by atoms The elements are not excited but are dissociated from their chemical bonds and placed in the unionized, unexcited ground state Measures electrolytes with a 2+ charge: Ca2+, Mg2+ |
Atomic absorption spec |
|
|
: flame is more concentrated and hotter DISADV: produces large droplets in the flame; noisier |
Total consumption barrier |
|
|
- gases are mixed; sample is atomized before entering the flame ADV: greater absorption and sensitivity; less noisy; large droplets go to the waste DISADV: flame is less hot |
