Background spectra are collected after each sample to remove solvent signals.

TO CLEAN the FTIR only use [IA] and a [Q]. Do not use ChemWipes for risk of scratching the diamond.

For dilute aqueous solutions, 5.00 ppm Ca is approximately 5.00 mg/L Ca.

The most defensible criterion for selecting a final analytical line is:

For edible oils (triglycerides), the most diagnostic carbonyl band is typically near:

What is the fingerprint region in an FT-IR spectrum?

A blank run after a high standard is primarily used to check for ____.

For CaCO3 neutralization capacity calculations, which pieces of information are required? (Select ALL that apply)

In an FTIR spectrum, the fingerprint region is generally less useful than the group-frequency region for distinguishing closely related compounds.

Isopropanol (IPA) may be used as a cleaning solvent for the ATR crystal between samples.
