Introduction The classic hues of such a rainbow inside the spectrum, named by Isaac Newton in 1671 from the Latin term for an appearance, include all Colours that may be formed using visible light of such a particular wavelength exclusively, the pure spectra and monochromatic tints. The capability of the individual sight to differentiate Colours is dependent on the varied sensitivity of distinct retinal cells with unique wavelengths of light. People are trichromatic, which means that the retina has three kinds of Colour receptor cells known as cones. When one or maybe more kinds of a human's Coloursensing cones seem ... Read More

Introduction While performing experiments, scientists often need to measure the values of a particular compound in the concentrated solution or coloured solutions. Only eyes are not good enough to decide the concentration in coloured solutions. To carry out such experiments, a device is used known as a colorimeter. Therefore, it helps detect colour and determine the colour and determine a solution’s concentration. It works on the principle of absorbance of a specific wavelength of light in a particular solution, that is, how much light is absorbed and how much light passes through in a liquid or solution by analysing colour ...
