What is another word for spectrometry?
Pronunciation: [spɛktɹˈɒmətɹi] (IPA) 
Spectrometry is a scientific analytical technique used to measure the properties of light. There are several synonyms that are used to describe this technique including spectrophotometry, spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. Spectrophotometry refers to the measurement of the intensity of light emitted by a sample, while spectroscopy refers to the study of the absorption, transmission, and emission of light by matter. Mass spectrometry is a more advanced technique that is used to determine the molecular weight of a sample by ionizing it and measuring the mass-to-charge ratio of the resulting ions. Each of these techniques is widely used in chemistry, physics, and biology research.
