Chapter 2, Problem 2.159CP
What was the mass in
2.158 Prior to 1961, the atomic mass unit was defined as 1/16 the mass of the atomic weight of oxygen; that is, the atomic weight of oxygen was defined as exactly 16. What was the mass of a 12C atom prior to 1961 if the atomic weight of oxygen on today’s scale is 15.9994?

As you can see in the picture, the instrument uses a Xe source. Given that the instrument is capable of measuring from 200-800nm, if Xe was not used, what other source(s) could be used? Refer to figure 7-3.
How many monochrometers does this instrument have? Why?
Trace the light as it goes from the Xenon lamp all the way to the circle just slightly to the right and a little bit down from S4. What do you think that circle is? In class we talked about many types of these, which kind do you think this one is for a fluorimeter? Why? Explain.
What is/are some strategy(ies) that this instrument has for dealing with noise that you see present in the optics diagram?
Why does a fluorescence cuvette have to be clear on four sides?

Znarrow_forwardNonearrow_forwardConsidering the important roles of biothiols in lysosomes of live organisms, and unique photophysical / photochemical properties of ruthenium(II) complexes, a novel ruthenium(II) complex, Ru-2, has been developed as a molecular probe for phosphorescence and time-gated luminescence assay of biothiols in human sera, live cells, and in vivo. Ru-2 is weakly luminescent due to the effective photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from Ru(II) luminophore to electron acceptor, 2,4-dinitrobenzene-sulfonyl (DNBS). In the presence of biothiols, such as glutathione (GSH), cysteine (Cys), and homocysteine (Hcy), the emission of Ru-2 solution was switched ON, as a result of the cleavage of quencher to form the product, Ru-1. Ru-2 showed high selectivity and sensitivity for the detection of biothiols under physiological conditions, with detection limits of 62 nM, 146 nM, and 115 nM for GSH, Cys, and Hcy, respectively. The emission lifetimes of Ru-1 and Ru-2 were measured to be 405 and 474 ns,…arrow_forward
