In the determination of ethanol concentration in alcoholic beverages using the GCFID method, why do we need to calculate the coefficient variation (CV). standard deviation, repeatability, response factor and response ratio? And how to calculate this parameter?
6. The concentration of caffeine in an energy soft drink was determined by standard addition using HPLC. The following procedure was used: a standard caffeine solution was prepared by adding 0.09850g of caffeine to 25.0 cm3 of water.A series of solutions were prepared by adding known volumes of the standard solution to the soft drink before diluting to 100 cm3. The volume of standard and the caffeine peak area are shown in the table: Energy Drink (cm3) Added caffeine Std (cm3) Peak area 15 0 965 15 5 1352 15 10 1739 15 15 2126 15 20 2513 Determine the concentration of caffeine in the soft drink as mg cm-3.

2. An 84 kg University of Toledo groundskeeper who is spraying a 100 mg/L solution of the insecticide dieldrin (MW = 381; logP = 4.56) on some trees exposes 100 cm“ of his skin to the solution over a 4 hr period. Dieldrin has a half-life of about 6 months, a volume of distribution of about 40 L/kg, and a dermal permeability of about 3 x 10° cm/sec. (a) Estimate the absorption rate during the exposure period assuming the blood concentration is much lower than the skin concentration (i.e., take the blood level to be zero in the skin absorption equation). (b) Estimate how it takes after exposure begins for the groundskeeper's plasma dieldrin levels to reach 1 ng/L. (c) Estimate the maximum plasma dieldrin concentration in ng/L that will occur in this groundskeeper due to this exposure. (d) Estimate how long it will take after exposure ends for the groundskeeper's plasma dieldrin levels to drop back down to 1 ng/L. %3D
