Certified Reference Material (CRM), GSS-5, is certified to contain 40.67 ± 3.33 mg/kg of Ni in soil. An analysis of the CRM gives values of 40.39, 41.98, 43.64, 44.38, and 45.96 mg/kg. Determine the tcalc. value and determine if your results differ from the expected results at the 90 % confidence level?

2. Estimate the absolute deviation and the coefficient of variation for the results of the following calculations. Round each result so that it contains only significant digits. The numbers in parentheses are absolute standard deviations. 2 (1.203 (+0.004) x 103 + 18.25 (10.005) x 102 – 34.012(±0.001)) 3.9201 (+0.0006) x 10-3 y =
The standard solution is prepared by dissolving a known mass of zinc pellets with conc. HCl. The solution is then neutralized, transferred into a 250 mL volumetric flask and filled to the calibration mark. If 0.9809 g of Zn was weighed using an electronic balance with a relative uncertainty of ± 0.01 % and the 250 mL volumetric flask has a known relative uncertainty of ± 0.06 %, what would be the absolute uncertainty of the concentration of the solution? The molecular weight of the zinc pellets is 65.39 g/mol
Please solve the normality of the sample in eq/L and the (DO) content of the sample in mg/L using the following equation.

Analysis was run on samples from a known CRM with 8.85% Fe. The following results for %Fe were obtained by an analyst: 8.75, 8.51, 8.25, 8.61. Which of the following statements is true assuming none of the data points are outliers? Group of answer choices Tcalc = 63.15 The analysis is not accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Tcalc = 3.03 The analysis is accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Not enough information to determine Tcalc = 63.15 The analysis is accurate at the 95% confidence interval. Tcalc = 3.03 The analysis is not accurate at the 95% confidence interval.

4. You are trying to determine the volume of your setup according to the procedure in the lab manual. You have determined the following: Mass Standard CaCO3 0.4453 g % CaCO3 Pi Pf Ti Tf 99.6 % 50.5 kPa 129.5 kPa 20.33 °C 21.88 °C What is the volume of the setup in L? The volume is 0.138 L
If you mixed a solution at ARCC that was 17.5 % mass/mass of the sugar sodium and then transferred 2.00 mL weighing 3.21 g into a graduated cylinder and diluted to 10.00 mL, what mass of sodium was transferred to your new solution?
You are in the lab preparing copper solutions for the MICRO lab this week. You measure 0.1035 (±0.0001) g of copper metal and dissolve it in a few mLs of concentrated nitric acid. This solution is diluted to the mark with water in a 50.00 (±0.05) mL volumetric flask. You withdraw a 5.00 (±0.01) mL aliquot with a volumetric pipet and deliver it to a 100.00 (±0.08) mL volumetric flask. After dilution to the mark with water, calculate the concentration and the absolute error in a solution of copper in ppm (assume ppm = 1 µg/g = 1 µg/mL = 1 mg/L).
A chemist working in a hospital clinical laboratory obtained the following values for uric acid in blood serum: 4.63, 4.58, 4.82, 4.31, 4.67 and 4.60 mg%. What value should be reported as the mean? Value of QT at 90 % confidence level is 0.56.
Many common materials that we ingest, though quite safe in reasonable quantities, become toxic when taken in very large doses. A measure of toxicity is the LD50 value (Lethal Dose, 50%). It is the quantity of material, expressed in mg of material per kg of subject-body-weight that, if administered to a population of subjects, would cause 50% of the population to die. The LD50 value for FD&C Red Dye No. 40 is >10,000 mg/kg in rats. Assume that the LD50 value for humans is the same as for rats. Calculate the number of mg of Allura Red present in an 8 fluid ounce glass of the beverage you used in this lab. Assume that the concentration of Allura Red in the beverage is 0.000054 M. The molar mass of Allura Red is 496.42 grams/mol 1 fl oz = 29.5735 mL Do not include units with your answer.
Anna Divi, a young and ambitious researcher, is planning to put up her very own research laboratory. However, she does not have the funds for this to happen. She then approached Alan Read, CEO of a well-known funding agency, to help her pursue her dream laboratory. Before Alan considers Anna's proposal, Anna must perform an experiment on determining the melting point of solutions. She nust have an accurate result with a percent error not greater than 3%. The data on the experiment is given below. Help Anna achieve her goals by performing the necessary calculations below. Table 1. Data on the determnination of the melting point of the solution.
