5-28. Ititandard addition. Lead in dry river sediment was extracted with 25wt%HNO3at35°Cfor1h.then1.00mLof filtered extract was mixed with other reagents to bring the total volume to V0=4.60mL.pb(ll)was measured electrochemically with a series of standard additions of 2.50pb(ll).


(a) Volume is not constant, so follow the procedure of Figures 5-5 and 5-6 to find ppmpb(ll)inthe1.00-mL

extract.

(b) Find the standard uncertainty and 95%confidence interval for the x-intercept of the graph. Assuming that uncertainty in intercept is larger than other uncertainties, estimate the uncertainty in ppm pb(ll)inthe1.00-mLextract.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) pbllin unskippedaliquent=0.0221ppm

(b) The pb(II) in original solution is221μgLit

Step by step solution

01

The procedure to find ppm pb(ll)

(a)

According to the above chart,a standard addition graph of final pb(II) have to be prepared ,contributed by addition of standard pb(II) solution.

The below graph represents their respective observance

So,the trendline equation for the Abs vs cone graph is y=49.52x+1.094,which is in the form of y=mx+c

In the graph, y-axisissignal,x-axisispbllinppm,y-interceptisc,slopeism.

Here,the signal is zero at y-intercept=1.094andm=49.52

pbllisinterceptslope=1.09449.52=0.0221ppm

Hence,pbllinunskippedaliquent=0.0221ppm

02

The standard uncertainty and 95% confidence interval for the x-intercept of the graph

(b)

The unskipped aliquant is consist of

0.5mLof original solution

Aand diluted to a final volume of

50ml.

C1V1unskippedaliquent=C2V2originalsolutionC2=0.0221ppm×5.0ml0.50mlC2=0.0221ppm

So.pb(II) is original solution =0.0221ppm

ppm=mgofsolutelitofsolution

So,the pb(II) in original solution is

A=0.221ppmpbll=0.221mg/Lpbll=221μgLit

So,The pb(II) in original solution is221μgLit

Internal standard calibration curve. Figure 5-10 is a graph of Ax/Asversus[X]/[S]=(mol%vinylacetateunits)/(mol%ethyleneunits)=q/p in Reaction 5-13.

(d) From the uncertaintyubof the intercept, find the95%confidence interval for the intercept. Does this interval include the theoretical value of zero?

Detection limit. A sensitive chromatographic method was developed to measure sub-part-per-billion levels of the disinfectant by-products iodate(IO3-), chlorite(CIO2-), and bromate(BrO3-)in drinking water. As the oxyhalides emerge from the column, they absorption at267nm. For example, each mole of BrO3-+8Br-+6H+R3Br3-+3H2Obromate makes by the reaction

Bromate near its detection limit gave the following chromatographic peak heights and standard deviations (s). For each concentration, estimate the detection limit. Find the mean detection limit. The blank is 0 because chromatographic peak height is measured from the baseline adjacent to the peak. Because blank =0, relative standard deviation applies to both peak height and concentration, which are proportional to each other. Detection limit is 3 s for peak height or concentration.

What are the three parts of quality assurance? What questions are asked in each part and what actions are taken in each part?

Consider a sample that contains analyte at the detection limit defined in Figure. Explain the following statements: There is approximately a 1%chance of falsely concluding that a sample containing no analyte contains analyte above the detection limit. There is a50%chance of concluding that a sample that really contains analyte at the detection limit does not contain analyte above the detection limit.

What is a blank and what is its purpose? Distinguish method blank, reagent blank, and field blank.
