It can be used to determine the impurities in a metal sample. If an element is present, light at the appropriate wavelength is absorbed. You are working with a metal stamping company and the rolled steel you use to form panels for automobile doors is failing at an alarming rate. There is some chance that the problem is unacceptably high levels of manganese in the steel. Given that the atomic spectrum of manganese has three lines near 403 nm, how could you use a spectrometer to determine the amount of manganese in the steel?arrow_forward

To do this, EDX measures the emitted characteristic x-rays from materials (e.g. Ka), generated due to the excitation of electrons from a lower energy shell to a higher energy one. Assume that you are working as a Materials Engineer in a company that produces cars. Your company has purchased 1 ton of Cr-Fe-Cu alloy to fabricate a certain part of the car. Your boss asks you to determine whether the material your company purchased is, in fact Cr-Fe-Cu alloy. If it there is another element present in the material, you will return the purchased material and stop production. So, you perform EDX analysis on your material and you see that three x-ray energies are detected: 5416, 6406 and 8050 eV. Determine which elements are present in your material and decide whether you should send the purchased material back or continue…arrow_forward
