Signal (mV) 9.1 47.5 95.6 193.8 387.5 812.5 1671.9
- Subtract blank value from all other values. Then use the method of least squares to find the slope and intercept and their uncertainties
- Replicate measurements of an unknown gave 152.1, 154.9, 153.9, and 155.1 mV and a blank gave 8.2, 9.4, 10.6 and 7.8 mV. Subtract average blank from average unknown to find average corrected signal for the unknown
- Find concentration of the unknown and uncertainty

- Find the average relative absorbance (A422.7/A324.7) produced by equal concentrations (μg/mL) of Ca and Cu.
- Copper was used as an internal standard in a Ca determination. A sample known to contain 2.47 μg Cu/mL gave A422.7 = 0.218 and A324.7 = 0.269.
- Calculate the concentration of Ca in micrograms per milliliter.
