Explain ionization suppressants as applied to atomic spectrometry

Chemistry
1 answer:
levacccp [35]2 years ago
8 0

An ionization suppressor is an alkali metal capable of preventing ionization, which can be used in atomic spectroscopy to determine matter composition.

<h3>What is ionization?</h3>

Ionization refers to the phenomena capable of converting neutral atoms/molecules to electrically charged atoms/ions.

Ionization is a process by which radiation (e.g., alpha, beta, gamma rays) can pass energy to inert matter.

Some examples of ionization suppressors include salts of alkali metals (for example, potassium), which can be used in atomic spectroscopy to determine matter composition.

How does the law of definite proportions apply to hydrates?
vladimir1956 [14]
The law of definite proportions would state that a hydrate always contain exactly the same proportion of salt and water by mass.
strictly speaking, the law of definite proportion states that a compound always 
contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass.
But the law is often applied to groupings of elements in compound.
Hydrates are salt that have a certain amount of  water asa part of their structure.
The water is chemically combined with the compound in a definite ratio.
