The following conditions must be met before a standard calibration curve equation can be used to solve for the concentration of
an unknown solution: a. The same instrument must be used to measure the unknown solution as was used to measure the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.
b. The analyte in the unknown solution must be the same analyte (or type of analyte) that is present in the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.
c. The equation from the calibration curve can only be linear.
d. Domain and range restrictions must be observed.

Domain and range restrictions must be observed.
Explanation:
Calibration curves are tools necessary in understanding the instrumental response for any analyte.
A calibration curve is obtained by preparing a set of standard solutions with known concentrations of the analyte. The instrument response for each concentration is measured and plotted against the concentration of the standard solution. The linear portion of this plot may be used to determine the unknown concentration of a sample of the analyte.
The equation of the best-fit line is used to determine the concentration of the unknown sample.
Doping with galium or indium will yield a p-type semiconductor while doping with arsenic, antimony or phosphorus will yield an n-type semiconductor.
Explanation:
Doping refers to improving the conductivity of a semiconductor by addition of impurities. A trivalent impurity leads to p-type semiconductor while a pentavalent impurity leads to an n-type semiconductor.
(cm3) is a commonly used unit of volume that extends the derived SI-unit cubic metre, and corresponds to the volume of a cube that measures 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm.
