6. A 3.0 g piece of brain from a victim of fatal motor vehicle crash was cut into small pieces and transferred to a headspace vial. A 20-μL aliquot of an aqueous solution of ethanol having a concentration of 1.10 mg/mL was used as an external vapor standard. It contained 12.14 ug of ethanol. Equilibration of both the sample and standard solution was carried out at 60oC for 20 minutes. The analytical results were as follows: Sample Calibration Standard A1 = 167,900 Astd = 72,550 1 – e-q = 0.4826 1 – e-q = 0.3785 Calculate the amount of ethanol in the victim’s brain.

A 15.00 g sample containing mixed alkali and other inert components was dissolved and diluted to 300 mL with water. A 20 ml, aliquot was titrated with 5.02 mL of 0.5352 M HCI to reach PHP endpoint. Another 20 mL aliquot was titrated to the BCG endpoint, using up 18.87 mL of titrant in the process. Identify the alkali components and their percent weight.
The researcher extracts a sample of well water and prepares it for TXRF analysis with a 10.00 mg/L V internal standard, like the calibration standards. The result produces SCa = 69297.81 and SV = 13481.2.Determine the concentration of Ca.
Pesticide residues were found in a lot of oranges; the compound identified was the epoxide of heptachlor (EH). To quantify the amount of this pesticide in oranges, 20 grams were taken from fruit peels and mixed with methylene chloride to extract it. The concentration of heptachlor epoxide in the sample was determined by gas chromatography coupled to a detector mass (GC-MS); and calibration was performed using anthracene (A) as internal standard. For In this analysis, the anthracene had a concentration of 350 ppm and the same volume was added to each standard. The table below shows the concentrations of the standard and the ratio of the areas.and the sample is: 0.1080.Determine the concentration of heptachlor epoxide in the sample.

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-.
