UV Visible Spectroscopy
Spectroscopy:- Spectroscopy is the branch of science dealing the
study of intraction of electromagnetic radiation with matter
Principle Of Spectroscopy :- The principle is based on the
measurement of spectrum of a sample containing atoms.
Spectrum is a graph of intensity of absorbed or emitted radiation by
sample verses frequency (V) or wavelength (λ).
Spectrometer is an instrument design to measure the Spectrum of
a compound.
Absorption Spectroscopy :- An analytical technique which concerns
with the measurement of absorption of electromagnetic radiation. Eg
UV (185-400nm) / Visible (400-800nm) spectroscopy. IR Spectroscopy
(0.76-15µm).
Emission Spectroscopy :-An analytical technique which emission of a
particle or radiation is dispersed according to some property of the
emission & the amount of dispersion is measured eg. Mass
spectroscopy.
Electromegnetic Radiation:-
Electromegnetic radiation consist of discrete packets of energy which
called as photons.

A photons consists of an oscillating electric field (E) & An oscillating
magnetic field (M) which are perpendicular to each other.
Properties of electromagnetic radiation:-
1) Wavelength:- it is distance b/w two successive maxima on an
electromagnetic wave. Unit are m,cm,mm,nm and micrometer.
2) Frequency:- Number of wavelength units pass time is called as
frequency. It is denoted by “V” and units are cycle per sec. Hertz.
3) Wavelength:-
𝒗 =
𝟏
𝒘𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒕𝒉
As the number of waves per cm in vaccum.

4) Vilocity:- it is the product of wavelength and frequency and is
equal to the velocity of the wave in the medium.
𝑣 = 𝑛 ∗λ
The relationship b/w wavelwngth & frequency can be written
as
C=Vλ
As photons is subjected to energy.

Electronic Transition:-
1) σ → σ* transition:
The energy required is large.
For exp. Methane (which has only C-H bonds and can only
undergo σ → σ* transition Transition) shows an absorbance
maximum at 125nm.
Absorption maxima due to σ →σ transition are not seen in
typical UV-Vis Spectra (200-700nm) but in UV- region (125-
135nm).
2) n→σ* Transition:-
These transition Usually need less energy then n→σ* transition.
They can be initiated by light whose wavelength is in the range
150-250nm.
The number of organic functional groups with n →σ* peaks in the
UV region in small.
3) π →π* Transition:-
Π electron in a bonding orbital is exaited to corresponding
antibonding orbital π* and obserbed in conjugated compounds

Eg. Alkenes generally absorb in the regin 170 to 205 nm.
4) n→π* transition:-
n→π9 transition require minimum energy and show absorption at
longer wavelength around 300nm.
Terms Used In UV/Visible Spectroscopy
Chromophore:- The part of a molecule responsible for
imparting color are called as chromospheres.
The functional group comtaining multiple bonds capable
of absorbing radiations above 200nm due to n→π* &
5. Unit-1

π→π* transitions eg. NO2 , N=O, C=N, C≡N, C=C,
C=S etc.
Auxochrome:- The functional group with non bonding
electrons that dose not absorb radiation in near UV
region but when attached to a chromophore alters the
wavelength & intensity of absorption.
Eg. Benzene λmax=255nm.
Phenol λmax=270nm.
Aniline λmax=280nm.
UV Visible Spectroscopy
Theory involved :
When a beam of light falls on a solution or homogenes
media a surface of the media a portion is absorbed with
in the medium and remaining is transmitted through the
medium

Thus if I0 is the intensity of radiation falling on the
media.
Ir is the amount of radiations reflucted
Ia is the amount of radiation absorbed
It is the amount of radiation transmitted
Then I0=Ir+Ia+It
Law involved
1. Beer’s law
2. Lambert’s law
3. Beer- Lambert’s law
1. Beer’s law : When a beam of monochromatic
light I paased through a honogenous absorbing
medium , the rate with decrease of intensity of
radiation with increase in the concn (c) of absorbing
species is directly proportional to the intensity (I) of
incident light radiation.

-dI/dc=KI
-dI/I=Kdc
On integration of above equation
-In I=KC+B--------------------eq(1)
When concn =0 then there is no absorbance
Here I=I0
Therefore substituting in equation (1)
-In I=k *0+b
-In I=b
Substituting the value of b in equation (1)
-InI=Kc-In I0
In I0-InI=kc
In I0/InI=Kc (Since logA-logB=logAB)
I0/I=ekc (remaining natural logarithm)
I/I0 =e-kc (Inverse both side)
I=I0 e-kc---------------------------(2)

Lambeart’s law :- when a beam of monochromatic light
is passed through a homogenous absorbing medium the
ratio of decrease of intensity of radiation with thickness
of absorbing medium is directly proportional to the
intensity of the incident light (radiation)
dI/dt=KI
I=intensity of incident light of wavelength λ&
t= Thickness of medium.
Since I=I0e-kt------------------------(3)
Now combine the eq (2) and eq(3) we get
I=I0e-kct
Converting natural logarithm to base 10
I=I0 10-kct
Inverse on both side
I0I=10kct
Taking log on both side
logI0/I=Kct--------------------------(4)
9. Unit-1

Here transmittance (T)=I/I0 and Absorbance
(A)=logI/T
Hence, A=logI0/I-------------------------(5)
Using eq. (4) and(5)
A=Kct
Instead of K we can use E, the above equation will be
as followes
A=Ect
This is mathematical equation for beer’s Lambert’s
Law
A=Ect
Where :
A= Absorbance
E= Molecular extinction coefficient
c= Concn of sample
t= path length (normally 10mm or 1cm)
