Why is blue light used to find the absorbance of FeSCN2+ which is reddish?
Color of the compound depends on region of the elctromagnetic radiation absorbed by the compound. Generally colored compounds absorbed in visible region of the electromagnetic radiation.
If the compound absorbs light with one color its complementary color will be observed. These two colors are known as complementary color pairs.
FeSCN^2+ ion exhibits red color, so it has to absorb complementary color of red color.
Complementary color of red color is greenish blue color.
Hence blue light has to be used to find the absorbance of FeSCN^2+.

1 Why does absorbance decrease when you add DCPIP to cholorplast and use light ? 2 Where would you find LHCII ? 3 What will happen if you put the gel against the positive pole and the membrane against ghe negative pole? 4 Why is immunoblotting better than using Commassie Blue? 5 If an herbecide was used and only co2 was generated and ATP was not generated, what was the mode of action of herbecide?
What is meant by the dual nature of light? Why is it useful to think of light in this way?Why is the sky blue and why are sunrises and sunsets reddish? Explain using the dual nature of light.
3. The spectrophotometric analysis done in this activity is measuring the absorbance of the base form (blue form) of the indicator. The blue form absorbs light best at 615 nm (10-h(A) light; thus, the K, value was calculated using the equation K. = Ar-A for sorbance values measured at 615 nm. The derivation for why this equation is equal to the K is included in your Background Section--Spectrophotometric Method. (H,OA derive Starting from the equilibrium constant expression for a weak...
The true absorbance of a sample is 1.500, but 0.50% stray light reaches the detector. Find the apparent transmittance and apparent absorbance of the sample. How much stray light can be tolerated if the absorbance error is not to exceed 0.001 at a true absorbance of 2? A research-quality spectrophotometer has a stray light level of greaterthan0.000 05% at 340 nm. What will be the maximum absorbance error for a sample with a true absorbance of 2? Of 3?
Name: Prelab 1. Find the wavelengths for the different colors of light that make up the visible (white) light spectrum. You can use your textbook or the internet to find this information. Note which source you used in completing this table. Color Wavelength Range Violet Blue Green Yellow Orange Red 2. Knowing that the FeSCNP complex is red, predict the color of light it absorbs, and determine the range of wavelengths in which you would expect to find its wavelength...

1.333) for which blue light (2 - 55 nm) will undergo Find the minimum thickness of a soap film ( constructive interference.
How does dark blue relate to light blue? Consider what makes these colors similar or different. Explain your reasoning. (I think the question wants differences in wavelength and absorbance)
which light carries more energy: orange light or blue light? explain
In Gel Filtration Chromatography, polyacrylamide beads and phosphate buffer were used. We wanted to separate Blue Dextran (2 mDa/blue), BSA (70 kDa, no color), myoglobin (17 kDa, reddish/brownish), and yellow food coloring (500 Da, yellow). For some reason, some fractions we collected earlier contained 3 substances (Blue Dextran, BSA, and myoglobin) together. A little later, fractions collected contained BSA and myoglobin, but the color of them was clear. Why did fractions collected earlier contain Blue Dextran, BSA, and myoglobin though...
Why would chloroplasts (in solution) placed under the light have a lower absorbance compared to the chloroplasts (in solution) in the dark? What is happening at the molecular level to be showing these results? The solution will be prepared with: water, DCIP, reaction buffer, and chloroplasts Please provide a lot of explanation! Thanks!
