1. Calculate the weight % of each component in an unknown sample of volatiles using Area Normalization. Given the following information use ethanol as the internal standard. Standard Component Unknown sample Weight used Raw Peak Area Component Raw Peak Area (mg) Ethanol 498.3 5104 Ethanol 3495 Hexane 756.4 9285 Hexane 3267 Benzene 412.7 4374 Benzene 2894 Ethyl acetate 628.9 7239 Ethyl acetate 5402 2. Calculate the absolute error between the normalized area percentages and the calculated weight percentages of the unknown components.
