A liquid sample was analyzed for Fe³+. A plot of absorbance (y-axis) vs. concentration (ppm; x-axis) of the external standards produced a calibration line with an equation y = 0.2256x-0.0903 (R² = 0.9973). The absorbance of the sample was 1.25. Determine the amount of Fe³+ in the sample (in ppm).

Question
A liquid sample was analyzed for Fe³+. A plot of absorbance (y-axis) vs. concentration
(ppm; x-axis) of the external standards produced a calibration line with an equation
y = 0.2256x -0.0903 (R² = 0.9973). The absorbance of the sample was 1.25. Determine
the amount of Fe³+ in the sample (in ppm).

Expert Solution
Step 1: Describing the given data

Given that,

a liquid sample was analyzed for Fe3+.

 A plot of absorbance (y-axis) vs. concentration (ppm; x-axis) of the external standards produced a calibration line with an equation

 y = 0.2256x - 0.0903 (R2 = 0.9973)

The absorbance of the sample was 1.25
