Question

Which of the following is the definition of spectral interference in plasma and flame atomic emission spectrometry? Spectral interference can occur when easily ionized substances alter the ionization of the analyte. A spectral interference in atomic spectroscopy occurs when a spectral line of an element in the sample matrix overlaps that of the analyte. It is an example of an additive interference. Spectral interference occurs due to the oscillation frequency of fluorescent lights used to illuminate the laboratory workspace. Spectral interference can alter the aspiration, nebulizalion, desolvation, or volatilization processes.
