An analysis of city drinking water for total hardness was done by two students in the laboratory and produced the following results (in ppm CaCO3): Student A: 228.3, 226.4, 226.9, 227.1, and 228.6. Student B: 229.5, 226.1, 230.7, 223.8, and 227.5 what is the coefficient variation?
To quantify the amount of ethanol in a beverage, a technician prepared the first solution which contained 4.90 grams unknown, 1.00 grams acetonitrile, and 4.10 grams water. After the GC analysis which reported the peak areas of 5,742 for ethanol and 3,829 for acetonitrile, the technician added 0.20 grams ethanol to the first solution and ran the GC analysis again. This time, the peak areas of 6,382 for ethanol and 3,709 for acetonitrile for solution 2 were obtained. What was the percent by mass ethanol in the original beverage?
Tonic water (20.0 mL) was added into each of two volumetric flasks (100 mL). The first flask was made up to volume with deionised water and produced an absorbance of 0.200. To the second flask was added an aliquot (20.0 mL) of a quinine standard solution (20.0 ppm) and after being made up to volume this produced an absorbance of 0.400. What is the concentration of quinine in the tonic water? a. 8.00 ppm b. 800 ppm С. 40.0 ppm d. 400 ppm е. 20.0 ppm

A controversy broke out as a dead body was found in a bar on Cornelia Street. The media revealed that minutes before the person died, he described his drink as something stronger than other drinks in the bar. You were the analyst tasked to verify the cause of death. Preliminary qualitative tests showed the possible presence of cyanide in the victim's death. Thus, you tried to quantitatively detect cyanide ions in the victim's drink using spectrophotometric analysis. Standard solutions were of different CN- concentrations were made as shown in Table 2. A 25.0mL aliquot of each standard solution was added with Fe(NO3)3 to form the colored complex, [Fe(CN)6]³ (aq). Each standard solution was then diluted to a total volume of 50.0 mL. The absorbances of the diluted standard solutions were recorded using 1.00-cm cells and at Amax = 725 nm and found in Table 2. Table 2. Raw absorbance measurements for each standard solution of CN-.
