Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy Since its development in the 1950’s the Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (AAS) has evolved into an accurate and reliable analytical tool used extensively in today’s modern laboratory. AAS is an analytical procedure for the Qualitative and in the form of an aerosol which is converted to an Quantitative determination of chemical elements in a atomic vapour, atoms present in the vapour are then sample. The technique is based on the Lambert-beer raised from their ground state to their excited state. The principle which states that the absorbance of a solution atoms...

Elements – Periodic Table Group Period Graphite Analysis There are three main techniques for AAS analysis each The graphite analysis technique uses an assembly having their strengths and weaknesses depending on containing a graphite tube to replace the burner. This the type of analysis required. There are a number of technique is used to analyse very low levels with low factors to consider when deciding which technique will sample volumes. Although the detection limit is very low, suit the application. For example: the precision is almost always higher than that of the flame technique. The...
