Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The differences between a monochromator, a spectograph, and a spectrophotometer should be determined.

Concept introduction:

A monochromator is a device that is basically used as a wavelength selector for the monochromatic light incident on it. A spectrograph is a device that separates the wave into all of its incoming wavelengths. Whereas a spectrophotometer is a device that is used to measure the properties like transmittance and the absorbance of the solution.

Suppose a student is preparing a set of standard solutions for use in a spectrophotometric study. If percent transmittance, %T, were measured in the standard solutions before the color had a chance to fully develop, the measured value would be compared with solutions that have allowed the color to fully develop.
What are the main components of a spectrophotometer? Choose all that applies. radiation source sample compartment/holder monochromator detector
What is the significance of the max of a spectrum? What are the other uses of the spectrophotometer?
