Discuss the similarities and differences between the two analytical techniques ( absorption and emission spectroscopies) used in this experiment

Question

aaronq · Answer

with absorption, look shine a light at a sample and observe makes it through - whatever didn't was absorbed.

with emission, you look at the photons emitted from electronic relaxations from atoms in a sample.

aaronq · Answer

those are the main differences. if you wanna talk about instrumentation, it gets more complicated but ask more specific questions if you want

I think that is enough, it is just a question for my freshman chem lab so not very complicated
