| Studies of the absorption and emission of light figure strongly in both the historical development of chemistry and its current practice. It is important to provide exposure to experimentation in this area for our students, and new technology has made this much easier and more practical. At the University of Cincinnati easy access to the capabilities of diode array spectrometers and multi-function colorimeter/fluorimeter/turbidity meters is provided by MeasureNet data collection networks. This enables a wide array of light-based experimentation in the undergraduate teaching laboratory, with a number of experiments now in use and others under development. A variety of experiments will be described, including examples from solution absorption, flame emission, simple fluorescence, fluorescence kinetics (for vitamin B1 determination), reaction kinetics, and chemiluminescence, among others. |
