Colorimeter

Introduction

♦ ZC1009 colorimeter is a sensor used to measure the luminousness of solution and rate of chemical reaction that color or transparency change. The advantage of using LED as light source is that it will not heat up the tested solution. The equipped cover prevents external light affecting experimental result. There are 4 kinds of light source. Users can select different light wave length by selecting red, purple, blue and green light.

Usage

♦  Connect the colorimeter to computer using USB cable before using. The colorimeter needs calibration before using if reading error is significant.

♦  Connect colorimeter to computer. Click button to adjust different wavelengths of light.

♦  Clean the cuvette using distilled water and dry it using tissue every time after using.

Notes

♦  This sensor needs no calibration or demarcation.

♦  If the measuring value is not accurate, user can calibrate and reset it.

♦  Clean the cuvette using distilled water and dry it using tissue every time after using.

Typical experiment

♦  Impact of temperature on reaction rate–reaction of sodium thiosulfate and sulfuric acid

Others

♦  Impact of concentration on reaction rate–color-fading reaction of potassium permanganate and oxalic acid

♦  Measure the content of vitamin C in juice

♦  Measure the concentration of substance in solution (Beer’s Law)
