    Anthony Bright, a chemist in the Environmental Lab in Bldg. 3001, shows a spectrophotographer he uses to determine the metal properties in unknown samples. Samples are first aerized through a tornadic-like spray chamber, mixed with argon and carried to a torch inside which will make the sample's molecules react, oscillate and emit light characteristic to the element. Each element will emit it's own light and wavelength of color. The intensity of the emissions are based on a low-medium-high standard to build a curve and then determine the unknown sample.
