Question
Chapter 17, Problem 17.7QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The description of origins of photo-acoustic IR spectra and the types of samples for the photo-acoustic measurements should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Infra-red spectroscopy is an important tool used to determine the structures of the biochemical species and the organic compounds. After the absorption of IR radiation by the molecules, they would show the emission characteristics at the heating.
