Question:

A compound X is to be determined by UV/visible spectrophotometry. A calibration curve is constructed from standard solutions of X with the following results: 0.50 ppm, A = 0.24; 1.5 ppm, A = 0.36; 2.5 ppm, A = 0.44; 3.5 ppm, A = 0.59; and 4.5 ppm, A = 0.70. Find the slope and intercept of the calibration curve, the standard error in Y, the concentration of the solution of unknown X concentration, and the standard deviation in the concentration of X. Construct a plot of the calibration curve. If the unknown has an absorbance of 0.50, determine its concentration.
