Question
Chapter 7, Problem 57E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The color of the given liquid is to be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
Absorption spectroscopy is a technique of measurement of absorption of radiations. The color of any substance depends on the color of the light absorbed by the molecules or atoms that compose the substance and the color that it reflects back.
Light has both particle and wave properties; hence, it has dual characteristics.
