For which component of a double-beam uv/vis spectrometer is the component\'s fun

Question

For which component of a double-beam uv/vis spectrometer is the component's function NOT described correctly below? The source provides polychromatic light, primarily in the uv, vis and near-IR regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The monochromator ensures that the intensity of radiation incident on the sample is constant, regardless of the wavelength selected. The beam chopper directs light alternately to the sample or through a reference cell. The detector generates an electrical current proportional to the photon flux. The amplifier increases the detector signal for ease of quantitation and display.

Explanation / Answer

mono means single and chromator means colour

A monochmator is a device which selects a single wavelength of light

hence option B is incorrect
