Make a sketch of a spectrometer and label the main parts.
A spectrometer has four main components: a source of electromagnetic radiation, a device, such as aprism, to separate the wavelengths of light, a sample holder, and a light detector.

if we were to do spectroscopy in a chemistry lab. The device that we use is called a spectrometer, and a spectrometer has four main components that allows us to detect different what we call spectra of light and spectra of samples. So the first component is an electromagnetic radiation source that would be a light source, something like maybe a UV light or X ray or something like that. It could also be visible light if you really wanted it to be. There's also a device to separate wavelength, so something maybe like a prism that would show us basically the rainbow of visible light. There's also our sample the are liquid sample, maybe something like a clear liquid that we could use to put into our spectrometer. And then finally, there's what we call a like detector that shows us how the spectra of light can be produced and how we would see a chemical reaction. Now, this is a very rudimentary drawing of the components of a spectrometer in a lab. You wouldn't see these individual components. It would be essentially like a machine where you put your sample in, or you could visual ise, the spectra But for purposes of understanding the components, this is a great diagram. So the first thing we start with is a light source. So again, something like a U V lamp would be a good light source for beginning spectroscopy. Then we have an entrance slit, so this would allow the light to come through in a very small, small centered setting. And then we have a prism. Or maybe again, you wouldn't see this in a machine, but the machine could do it for you. This separates the wavelength of light so you could see here we see all the colors of visible light. This prison was essentially separating those different way flanks. Then we have an exit slit and notice here how one very specific wavelength of light in this case, Red exited our spectrometer and we'll see that wavelength of light going through our sample and hitting our light detector. And that's what's going to generate our spectra of our sample. So I hope that this problem helped to understand a little bit more not only about spectroscopy, but how we can carry out a spectroscopy experiment in a lab and using a spectrometer
