Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

X-ray absorption measurement for Ag kα line is done by considering Al foil as a window for cell. 2.74 is the mass absorption coefficient for Al at the given wavelength and the density for this is 2.70 g/cm3. For the fabrication of window with Al foil, maximum thickness of aluminum foil needs to be determined with the condition that the absorption done by them is not more than 2.8%.

Concept introduction:

Concept of Beer’s law will be used. This is given by the following formula-

lnPP=μmρx

Why is 800nm used for the wavelength when measuring the absorbance of the blue copper II sulfate solution?
Photobromination of cinnamic acid to dibromocinnamic acid was carried out in blue light of wavelength 440nm at 35degree celsius using light intensity of 1.5 *10 power -3 joule per second. An exposure of 20 minutes produces a decrease of 0.075 millimoles of bromine. The solution absorb 80% of light passing through it. Calculate the quantum yield of the reaction.
On February 18, the news Mars rover landed in the Herezo Crater. It communicates with Earth via radio waves with a wavelength of 3 cm.  Calculate the amount of time for this electromagentic radiation to transverse the distance of 225 x 10^6 km between Earth and Mars.
