A biosensor was developed to measure the concentration of aqueous arsenic. To determine the accuracy of the sensor, the sensor was tested against a standard reference solution of known concentration. The concentration measured by the new biosensor can be considered accurate if the standard deviations for the concentration determined by the biosensor and the accepted, known concentration of the reference solution are not significantly different. the standard deviations for the concentration determined by the biosensor and the accepted, known concentration of the reference solution are not significantly different, and calculated < ttable. the accepted, known concentration of the reference solution falls outside the 95% confidence interval for the biosensor results. the accepted, known concentration of the reference solution falls within the 95% confidence interval for biosensor results.

Analysis of a standard solution at a concentration of 5 ppm Fe (III) is done with a new analysis method. The experiment is repeated 3 times, and the average iron ion concentration is determined as 4.7 ppm. The standard deviation, s = 0.1, is calculated according to the results of the three experiments. Does the new analysis method contain systematic errors at a 95% confidence level? (Choose the t value from the Table) t values Degrees of freedom 95% CL 1 12.7 4.3 3.18 4 2.78 O a.

A young researcher was evaluating a standard method for determining the methylmercury content in blue fin tuna using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). She determined the standard deviation (?)(s) for the method to be 0.440.44 ppb and assumed that ?s was a good approximation of ?σ . As a test, she used this method to evaluate the methylmercury content in a National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST) standard and determined the unknown amount to be within 0.210.21 ppb (?)(μ) of the known mean with 99% probability. How many replicate measurements of the NIST standard did the researcher perform?

To test the quality of the work of a commercial laboratory, duplicate analyses of apurified benzoic acid (68.8% C, 4.953% H) sample were requested. It is assumed that therelative standard deviation of the method is sr →  = 4 ppt for carbon and 6 ppt forhydrogen. The means of the reported results are 68.5% C and 4.882% H. At the 95%confidence level, is there any indication of systematic error in either analysis?
