- Consider the analysis of a sample of iron using atomic absorbance spectroscopy. Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply. The iron sample is aspirated into the flame, where the solvent evaporates and the iron analyte is atomized. The hollow-cathode lamp for iron emits wavelengths of light unique for iron. A detector measures the amount of light generated by the flame and not absorbed by iron. The iron atoms in the flame absorb some of the light emitted from the hollow-cathode lamp. The flame replaces the cuvet of conventional spectrometers and the flame pathlength is typically 10 cm.arrow_forwardA student mixed 5.00 mL of 0.100 M Fe(NO3)3 with 50.00 mL of 2.00x10−4 M KSCN.

To determine the concentration of the pigment isolated, each group made a standard curve using commercially available indigo dye in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The following data were obtained by the two groups: Table 4. Absorbance readings of standard solutions of varying concentrations of indigo dye in DMSO.

Each cuvette (path length 1 cm) contained 3ml of a suitable assay buffer (including pyruvate as substrate). 20 microlitres of either serum was added to the cuvette and the absorbance values immediately recorded at the optimum wavelength for a period of 5 minutes (absorbance readings taken every 30 seconds). Protein concentration of serum sample (mg/ml) Change in absorbance at optimum wavelength per minute Control serum (C) 8 -0.04 Diseased serum (D) 7.8 -0.6 1c. Using the molar absorption coefficient of NADH as 6220 M-1 cm-1, and by application of the Beer-Lambert law, estimate the enzyme activity in the two samples (C and D).
