Requirements:
Glassware: Beakers, volumetric flasks, pipette, cuvettes
Chemicals: Paracetamol, Methanol, Distilled water
Instrument: SHIMADZU 1780
Software: UVProbe 2.70
Theory:
UV spectroscopy is an absorption spectroscopy in which the molecules absorb
wavelengths in UV region (400nm- 200nm) resulting in excitation of electrons. The
instrument used is UV spectrophotometer which consists of components like radiation
source, monochromator, detector, a recording system and sample cell. The instrument is
connected to a software. The software measures the wavelength of samples of known
concentration at which maximum absorbance is observed. At this maximum wavelength
the absorbance of sample measured.
Beer’s law: It states that the intensity of a beam of parallel monochromatic radiation
decreases exponentially with the number of absorbing molecules. In other words,
absorbencies proportional to the concentration.
Lambert’s law: It states that the intensity of a beam of parallel monochromatic
radiatiodecreases exponentially as it passes through a medium of homogeneous thickness.
A combination of these two laws yields the Beer-Lambert law.
Beer-Lambert law: When beam of light is passed through a transparent cell containing a
solution of an absorbing substance, reduction of the intensity of light may occur.
Mathematically, Beer- Lambert law is expressed as
A = a. b. c
Where, A = Absorbance or optical density
a = Absorptivity or extinction coefficient
b = Path length of radiation through sample
c = Concentration of solute in solution.
Both b and a are constant so a is directly proportional to the concentration
Procedure:
Procedure I: Preparation of Solutions
Preparation of Stock solution (100μg/ml):
Weigh accurately about 10 mg paracetamol and dissolve it in 15 ml methanol in 100 ml
volumetric flask, make the volume upto 100 ml with distilled water.
4. PRACTICE SCHOOL GROUP -V Page 4
PREPARATION OF BLANK: Prepare 15: 85 %v/v solution of methanol and distilled
water, as a blank and as a dilution solvent for standard dilution series.
PREPARATION OF SAMPLE SOLUTIONS OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS:
Pipette out 1, 2 to 5 ml of stock solution in 10 ml of volumetric flasks & make the volume
upto the mark with dilution solution to get 10, 20, to 50 µg/ml respectively.
Procedure II:
Turn ON the UV-Vis Spectrophotometer and connected system.
Run the UV Probe 2.70 software.
Wait till the instrument to be initialised properly.
Open Spectrum module in software.
Wash the cuvettes with distilled water and rinse with the blank solution.
Fill the cuvettes ≈ 80% with blank solution & clean it with lint free tissue paper.
Place cuvettes in the sample compartment, and click on the Auto Zero button.
Select the wavelength (nm) range to run the spectra.
Wash and rinse the sample with the sample solution, scan the solution to get absorbance
maxima (λmax).
Calculate the absorbance maxima (λmax) for each dilution, andinterpreter the results for
effect of concentration.

All the recorded spectra reveals that as we decrease the concentration of absorbing
substance in the solution the relative absorbance also decreases.
Result:
Overlay spectra assures the Beer’s Law which states, the concentration is proportional to
absorbance of the solution.
Conclusion:
The prepared dilution series obeys the Beer’s Law.

Precaution:
Clean the capillary and check if sealed completely.
Operation:
1. Switch on the electric supply and the instrument
2. Switch on the start button
3. Switch on the STIRRER and adjust the speed
4. Seal a capillary in flame and fill the powder whose melting point is to be
determined
5. Insert the capillary in the sample holder.
6. Adjust the intensity of the background light such that the inserted capillary as well
the powder in it are clearly visible
7. Adjust the temperature using the HEATER control knob Increase the heat initially
at higher rate; as the melting point approaches, lower the heating rate to observe
the clear melting of solid near its melting temperature range
Calibration:
7.1 For boiling point:
1. Fill the sample holder with a liquid of known boiling point for example water
2. Switch on the electric supply and the instrument
3. Switch on the start button
4. Switch on the STIRRER and adjust the speed
5. Adjust the intensity of the background light such that the sample tube as well the
liquid in it are clearly visible
6. Adjust the temperature using the HEATER control knob
7. Increase the heat initially at higher rate; as the boiling point approaches, lower the
heating rate to observe the clear vaporization of liquid near its boiling temperature
range
8. If the boiling point is same as that of the known boiling point of standard liquid;
the instrument is calibrated
7.2 For melting point
1. Seal a capillary in flame and fill the powder with known melting point
2. Insert the capillary in the sample holder.
3. Switch on the electric supply and the instrument
4. Switch on the start button
5. Switch on the STIRRER and adjust the speed
6. Adjust the intensity of the background light such that the inserted capillary as well
