Q5. Two methods were used to measure fluorescence lifetime of a dye. The average result for Method 1 is = 1.382 ns with a standard deviation of s1 = 0.039 and n1= 7. The average result for Method 2 is = 1.346 ns with a standard deviation of s2 = 0.015 and n2= 5. Is there a difference between the two methods at the 95% confidence level using F test?

In the technique of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) the peak area response for a particular analyte is directly proportional to concentration Analgesic tablets typically consist of aspirin and caffeine as the active ingredients, the remainder made up of inert binding material. The concentrations of aspirin and caffeine may be routinely monitored using HPLC, whereby the peak areas obtained from a solution of the tablet are compared with those obtained from standard solutions of the analytes. In an analysis to determine the concentration of caffeine in such a tablet, the following data were recorded: Solutions Analysed: Tablet Sample: Mass of tablet (dissolved in 250 cm methano): 0.523 g Caffeine Standard: Mass of caffeine (diessolved in 500 cm methanol) 0.105 g HPLC results: Solution Peak Area (catfeine) 1.
