Question
Please correct answer and don't use hand rating
The following results were obtained when each of a series of standard silver solutions was analyzed
by flame-atomic absorption spectrometry:
Concentration
(ng-mL¹)
Absorbance (r.u.)
0
5
10
15
20
25
30
40
0.003
0.127
0.251
0.390
0.498
0.625
0.763
0.771
Determine the slope and intercept of the calibration plot, along with their confidence limits (95%).
Using the data from exercise 1 above, estimate the confidence limits for the silver concentration in:
a) A sample giving an absorbance of 0.456 in a single determination.
b) A sample giving absorbance values of 0.308, 0.317, 0.347, and 0.412 in four separate
determinations.
