Recovery standards are a necessary tool for determining exactly how much of a particular analyte you are able to extract from a

sample. You have a recovery standard that contains 4.0 mg Fe/1.0000 g sample, d.w. Your analysis determines that you extracted 3.5 mg Fe from 1.0101 g sample. A sample that you ran in parallel with the recovery standard returned a measurement of 1.7 mg Fe in 0.9582 g sample. How much iron (mg Fe/g sample) is actually present in your sample?

Answer:

2.05mg Fe/ g sample

Explanation:

In all chemical extractions you lose analyte. Recovery standards are a way to know how many analyte you lose.

In the problem you recover 3.5mg Fe / 1.0101g sample: <em>3.465mg Fe / g sample. </em>As real concentration of the standard is 4.0 mg / g of sample the percent of recovery extraction is:

3.465 / 4×100 = <em>86,6%</em>

As the recovery of your sample was 1.7mg Fe / 0.9582g, the Iron present in your sample is:

1.7mg Fe / 0.9582g sample× (100/86.6) = <em>2.05mg Fe / g sample</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

How many molecules of nitrogen monoxide are in a 22.5 gram sample?
poizon [28]
Okay, so you need to start by finding the molar mass (grams in one mole) of nitrogen monoxide (NO).
N=14g
O=16g
So we know that NO has a molar mass of 30 grams, then just divide your given mass of 22.5 grams by the molar mass of 30 grams to find the number of molecules in your sample. The answer should be .75 molecules. Hope this helps!

<span>The pH is given by the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation:
              pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA])
              pH = -log(</span><span>1.3 x 10^-5) + log(0.50/0.40)
              pH = 4.98
The answer to this question is 4.98.
