Low Concentrations of Ni-EDTA near the detection limit have the following counts in a mass spectral measurement: 175, 104, 164, 193, 131, 189, 155, 133, 151, 176. Ten measurements of a blank has a mean of 45 counts. A sample containing 1.00 μM Ni-EDTA gave 1797 counts. What is the sensitivity in counts/M?

Chemistry Atomic absorption analysis of Zn gave a calibration best fit line of A=0.670(ppm Zn) The detection limit was determined for this analysis using a 0.020 ppm Zn solution. The standard deviation of the absorbances for 11 samples of the solution was found to be 1.560 x 10-3 and the slope of the calibration curve was 0.026. Calculate the detection limit, Cq, (in units of ppm) for this instrument. Give your answer to 3 places after the decimal place.
In the process of performing a spectrophotometric determination of Fe, an analyst prepares a calibration curve using a single-beam spectrometer, such as a Spec-20. After preparing the calibration curve, the analyst drops the cuvette used for the method blank and the standards. The analyst acquires a new cuvette, measures the absorbance of the sample, and determines the %w/w Fe in the sample. Will the change in cuvette lead to a determinate error in the analysis? Explain.
