(a) When a solution containing 234 mg of pentanol (FM 88.15) and 237 mg of 2,3-dimethyl 2-butanol (FM 102.17) in 10.0 mL was separated, the relative peak areas were pentanol:2,3 dimethyl-2-butanol 0.913:1.00. Considering pentanol to be the internal standard, find the response factor for 2,3-dimethyl-2-butanol.
(b) Use Equation 23-2 to find the areas for pentanol and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butanol in Figure 23-8.
(c) The concentration of pentanol internal standard in the unknown solution was 93.7 mM. What was the concentration of 2,3-dimethyl- 2-butanol?
