The slope and the intercept of the least square line are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The slope of a line is also known as a gradient of line which is used to define the direction and steepness of the line.
The intercept line is the y-axis of a line at which point it crosses the X −axis.
(b)
Interpretation:
The graph for the least square line as well as experimental points is to be plotted.
Concept introduction:
The least-square method is a method in which the best result is obtained for the set data point by minimizing the sum of offset or residuals from the plot of curve statistically.
(c)
Interpretation:
The relative peak area of the sample containing MVK is 10.3. The concentration of MVK in the solution is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The slope of a line is also known as a gradient of line which is used to define the direction and steepness of the line.
The intercept line is the y-axis of a line at which point it crosses the X −axis.
(d)
Interpretation:
It is considered that the result obtained from (d) is representing the single measurement as well as the mean of four measurements. The respective absolute and relative standard deviation is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The standard deviation method is used for the quantification of the amount of variation or for the dispersion for the set of the data values.
(e)
Interpretation:
The calculation for the section (c) and (d) is to be repeated when the peak area of the sample is 22.8.
Concept introduction:
The standard deviation method is used for the quantification of the amount of variation or for the dispersion for the set of the data values.

- [References) A method for the determination of the corticosteroid methylprednisolone acetate in solutions obtained from pharmaceutical preparations yielded a mean value of 3.7 mg mL with a standard deviation of 0.3 mg mL. For quality control purposes, the relative uncertainty in the concentration should be no more than 3%. How many samples of each batch should be analyzed to ensure that the relative standard deviation does not exceed 9% at the 95% confidence level? samplesarrow_forwardIn the Analytical Chemistry laboratory, one of the B.Sc student Ms. Fatma wanted to analyze the presence of Iron(II) ion in the water samples collected from Sohar Industrial Area in the Sultanate of Oman and analyzed by Spectrophotometric method. (1) 250.00 mL of this water sample (Solution A) known to contain unknown amount of FeSO4. She has diluted Solution A by a dilution factor 10 to make 250.00 mL solution, which she labeled Solution B. Using Spectrophotometer, she has measured the absorbance value (0.642) for Solution B at 508 nm using 1.00 cm cell (cuvet). The molar absorptivity value for Fe2* ion at 508 nm is ɛ508 = 30.8 M-1cm1.

Based on the five trials, the group determines that the average concentration of the standard is 80.5 ppm with a standard deviation of 0.5 ppm. Using the equation for the Student's t confidence interval found in Appendix 1 of your lab manual and the t-value for a 95% confidence interval, calculate the confidence interval for which there is a 95% chance of finding the "true value" of the standard solution's concentration based on the data. Put your answer in the format # lower limit < "true value" < # upper limit.

Sample preparation 20 tablets weighing 12.3819 g were crushed to a fine powder. A portion of the powder (145.4 mg) was shaken with approximately 150 mL of acetic acid (0.05 M) for 5 min and then made up to volume in a 250 mL volumetric flask (stock solution). Approximately 50 mL of the stock solution was filtered and a 25 mL aliquot was diluted to 100 mL in a volumetric flask. 10 mL of the resulting solution was further diluted to 100 mL with acetic acid (0.05 M).
