a sample of butyl benzoate is prepared to use as an internal standard. The results of a preliminary run, which used a solution known to contain 1.53 mg/mL of methyl benzoate (peak A) and1.68 mg/mL of butyl benzoate (peak B), are shown. The area of peak A is determined to be 352 and the area of peak B is determined to be 416 measured in arbitrary units by the computer. To measure the sample, 1.00 mL of a standard sample of butyl benzoate containing 2.19 mg/mL is mixed with 1.00 mL of the plant stream material. Analysis of the mixture gave a peak area of 449 for peak A and 411 for peak B. What is the concentration of methyl benzoate in the plant stream?
