Question
The following data were obtained for a voltage measurement of the same sample on a noisy system:

| Measurement # | Value (mV) |
|---------------|------------|
| 1             | 1.2        |
| 2             | 1.08       |
| 3             | 1.16       |
| 4             | 1.15       |
| 5             | 1.18       |
| 6             | 1.11       |
| 7             | 1.08       |
| 8             | 1.25       |

The average is 1.15125 and the standard deviation is 0.059626815635728.

If the slope of the calibration curve is 52.02 mV/ppm, what is the concentration detection limit?

\[ \text{Detection Limit (D.L.)} = \frac{3s}{\text{slope}} \]

\[ \text{Lower Limit of Quantification (LLoQ)} = \frac{10s}{\text{slope}} \]

\[ \text{Concentration Detection Limit} = \underline{\hspace{3cm}} \text{ ppm (answer using 3 significant digits)} \]

Expert Solution
Concentration of detection limit (D.L)

1) Concentration of detection limit (D.L)/Limit of detection (LOD): It is the smallest concentration that is formed when measured signal like voltage differs significantly from the background and can be easily distinguished from zero. 

Standard deviation of the curve 1, s is 0.059626815635728 mV

Slope of the calibration curve, m = 52.02 mV/ppm

Concentration of detection limit, D.L = 3s/slope = 3 x standard deviation/slope

D.L = 3 x 0.059626815635728 mV/52.02 mV/ppm = 0.1788804469071 ppm/52.02 = 0.00343860228 ppm = 0.00344 ppm (3 significant figures)
