In atomic spectroscopic techniques, flames and furnaces are commonly used to atomize the samples. Furnaces are better than :the flames because of Furnaces can work with the refractory elements but flames cannot Furnaces provide higher sensitivity with comparatively larger sample size Furnaces are better as they provide less temperature than 500K Furnaces provide higher sensitivity with comparatively lesser sample size Furnaces are better as they don't require nebulization and aerosols.
In the determination of lead content in a solid food sample, 1 g of the solid food sample was extracted with 10 mL of solvent and then diluted to a final volume of 50 mL. A calibration plot of lead standards was obtained from the standard solutions of 1 to 50 ug/mL and it gave a linear regression line of y = 0.025x + 0.004. The wavelength for lead analysis is 283.3 nm. The absorbance value for the extract was 0.302 arbitrary units. Calculate the percentage of Pb in 1 g of the solid food sample.
