What happens if the nebuliser's uptake tube becomes partly blocked?

  • A.The flame temperature rises noticeably
  • B.The background correction stops working
  • C.The lamp's emission becomes unstable
  • D.The signal falls and becomes noisy

Answer: D

Restricted uptake delivers fewer atoms per second and delivers them irregularly, so the reading is both low and unsteady. Flame temperature, background correction and the lamp are unaffected. Because a partial blockage mimics a genuine low result, checking the uptake rate by timing a measured volume is a routine that catches it before a batch of samples is reported wrongly.
