Chloroform is an internal standard in the determination of the pesticide DDT in a polarographic analysis in which each compound is reduced at an electrode surface. A mixture containing 0.500mMchloroform and0.800mMDDT gave signals of15.3μ´¡for chloroform and10.1μ´¡for DDT. An unknown solution(10.0mL)containing DDT was placed in a100-mLvolumetric flask and10.2μ³¢of chloroform (FM 119.39, density=1.484g/mL)were added. After dilution to the mark with solvent, polarographic signals of and8.7μ´¡were observed for the chloroform and DDT, respectively. Find the concentration of DDT in the unknown.

What is the difference between a calibration check and a performance test sample?

Detection limit. In spectrophotometry, we measure the concentration of an analyte by its absorbance of light. A low-concentration sample was prepared and nine replicate measurements gave absorbances of 0.0047,0.0054,0.0062,0.0060,0.0046,0.0056,0.0052,0.0044, and 0.0058. Nine reagent blanks gave values of 0.0006,0.0012, 0.0022,0.0005,0.0016,0.0008,0.0017,0.0010, and 0.0011.

a) Find the absorbance detection limit with equation 5-3.

b) The calibration curve is a graph of absorbance versus concentration. Absorbance is a dimensionless quantity. The slope of the calibration curve is m=2.24x104M-1Find the concentration detection limit with Equation 5-5.

(c) Find the lower limit of quantitation with Equation 5-6.

Standard addition graph. Tooth enamel consists mainly of the mineral calcium hydroxyapatite,C10PA46OH2. Trace elements in teeth of archeological specimens provide anthropologists with clues about diet and diseases of ancient people. Students at Hamline University used atomic absorption spectroscopy to measure strontium in enamel from extracted wisdom teeth. Solutions were prepared with a constant total volume of 10.0mLcontaining role="math" localid="1667792217398" 0.750mgof dissolved tooth enamel plus variable concentrations of added Sr.

(a) Find the concentration of Sr and its uncertainty in therole="math" localid="1667792593357" 10-mLsample solution in parts per billion =ng/mL.

(b) Find the concentration of Sr in tooth enamel in parts per million =μgg.

(c) If the standard addition intercept is the major source of uncertainty, find the uncertainty in the concentration of Sr in tooth enamel in parts per million.

(d) Find the 95%confidence interval for Sr in tooth enamel.

Internal standard graph -- Data are shown below for chromatographic analysis of naphthalene (C10H8), using deuterated naphthalene (C10D8, in which D is the isotope 2H) as an internal standard. The two compounds emerge from the column at almost identical times and are measured by a mass spectrometer.

(a) Using a spreadsheet such asFigure 4-15, prepare a graph of Equation 5-12 showing peak area ratio(C10H8/C10D8)versus concentration ratio role="math" localid="1663559632352" ([C10H8]/C10D8) . Find the least-squares slope and intercept and their standard uncertainties. What is the theoretical value of the intercept? Is the observed value of the intercept within experimental uncertainty of the theoretical value?

(b) Find the quotientrole="math" localid="1663559638520" [C10H8]/[C10D8]for an unknown whose peak area ratio (C10H8/C10D8) is 0.652. Find the standard uncertainty for the peak area ratio.

(c) Here is why we try not to use 3-point calibration curves. For n = 3 data points, there is n - 2 = 1 degree of freedom, because 2 degrees of freedom are lost in computing the slope and intercept. Find the value of Student's for confidence and 1 degree of freedom. From the standard uncertainty in (b), compute the 95 % confidence interval for the quotient[C10H8]/[C10D8] . What is the percent relative uncertainty in the quotient[C10H8]/[C10D8]? Why do we avoid 3-point calibration curves?
