Q. How does the venturi effect contribute to the nebulization of the sample?
Q. In the type of nebulizer described, where does most of the sample go?
Q. How can ionization problems be overcome?
Q. Summarize nebulization and atomization in a schematic diagram. Now compare this with Fig. 2.10.
2.2.4 Burner Design
Many early experiments were carried out with the Meker type of burner. A perforated metal plate is
placed on top of an open pipe (the thicker the plate, the more stable is the flame). On ignition, a number
of small cones
