Use data obtained after the addition of 10 mL 0.1 M KCl. (Be sure to use the exact titrator reading for the 10 mL addition.) Slope, intercept, and the equation for the calibration line. (Be sure to use the actual variables, not y and x, in the equation.) The equation for the line must be calculated by the Linear Least Squares (LLS) method (Appendix V). All work for the LLS calculation must be shown in a separate table in the Sample Calculations section. Be sure to plot the data first, so that points below the LOD (and any other obviously stray points) can be eliminated from the calculation. Be sure to indicate which points have been eliminated. Theoretical electrode slope and the relative error of the measured slope from the theoretical value. Concentration of the Cl- unknown in the 250 mL volumetric flask in moles per liter and in ppm chloride using the equation of the calibration line. Wt% Cl- in the solid unknown. Y axis variable for the standard additions plot using data for the 5 mL addition. (Use your observed slope from the calibration plot when calculating the value of the y axis …show more content…
All work for the LLS calculation must be shown in a separate table in the Sample Calculations section. Concentration of chloride in the 250 mL celery salt mixture in moles per liter and in ppm chloride. Calculation of the wt% NaCl in the solid celery salt. IV. Data and Results: The report must include two graphs (a calibration plot and a standard additions plot) and the data tables for each. (Note: These are not the same as the LLS tables, which belong in the Sample Calculations section.) Use graph paper ruled 10 sq/cm. Note that section C-2 on page 69 of the laboratory manual gives instructions for preparation of a table to aid in data analysis. As usual, in the report other necessary raw data (e.g., concentration of KCl, unknown weight and volume, temperature, etc.) and final calculated values (e.g., equation of the line, [Cl-] in the unknown, etc.) should appear in the table. The equation for each line should appear on the corresponding graph, and the limit of detection (in concentration units, not log [Cl-]) should be indicated on the calibration plot. Note that the number of significant figures in the concentration (number of decimal places in log C) changes as C increases. To make the graphing uniform use three places in all log C axis labels. Conclusion: State your results: wt% Cl- in the solid unknown; wt% NaCl in the celery salt. Then discuss any problems and notable sources of error pertinent to your results. Also, give a complete
