6.1.5. Radiation has been detected from space that is characteristic
of an ideal radiator at T = 2.728 K. (This radiation is a relic of the
Big Bang at the beginning of the universe.) For this temperature, at
what wavelength does the Planck distribution peak? In what part of
the electromagnetic spectrum is this wavelength?
%3D
Explain why different elements produce different spectral absorption and emission lines.
Calculate the wavelength of a photon that has an energy of 4.96 eV. (Hint: h*c {Planck's constant * the speed of light }= 1240 eV*nm;)
What type of radiation/light (from the electromagnetic spectrum) is the photon from the previous question?
Why is it that radio telescopes need to be so large or organized in arrays?
this is all one question with different parts. Thank you.
1. . Optical fibers have many uses in analytical chemistry. An optode is a sensor for a specific analyte that is made by coating a chemically sensitive layer at the end of an optical fiber. The image below shows an optode coated in a Ru(II)complex used to detect oxygen concentrations. Luminescence from the Ru(II)complex is quenched by oxygen and the decrease in signal is measured.
a) Generally explain how an optical fiber works to transmit light efficiently.b) Find the minimum angle for total reflection in an optical fiber if the index of refraction of the cladding is 1.400 and the index of refraction of the core is 1.600.c) The optical fiber described can detect 10 amol of O2 in a volume of 100 fL. What is the concentration of this solution in molarity?
