Characterization and optical properties of pumpkin leaves

Abstract

In this study the leaves has been taken for honey pumpkin and bitter melon in order to

study some physical properties such as optical properties and physical characterization by

using Fourier Transform Infra red FT-IR Spectrometer. And the X-Ray Fluorescence XRF

Spectrometer . To find the concentration of elements

(

(potassium (K), calcium (Ca),

chromium (Cr) ,Magnesium(Mn),Iron(Fe),Nickel(Ni), copper(cu), Zinc (Zn),Lead (pb)

,Bromine (Br) , Rubidium (Rb), Strontium (Sr)) was found the bonds

(

Alkenes ) - C = C -

, It was found that concentration Calcium in honey pumpkin is

grater than in bitter melon
