Why is it desirable in the method of standard addition to add a small volume of concentrated standard rather than a large volume of dilute standard? An unknown sample of Cu2+ gave an absorbance of 0.262 in an atomic absorption analysis. Then 1.00 mL of solution containing 100.0 ppm (= µg/mL) Cu2+ was mixed with 95.0 mL of unknown, and the mixture was diluted to 100.0 mL in a volumetric flask. The absorbance of the new solution was 0.500. Calculate the concentration of copper ion in the sample.

- A sample of hydrated magnesium sulfate (MgSO4⋅xH2O) is analyzed using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The sample weighs 2.50 g initially and is heated in a controlled atmosphere. As the temperature increases, the water of hydration is released in two stages: (a) The first mass loss of 0.72 g occurs at 150°C, corresponding to the loss of a certain number of water molecules. (b) The second mass loss of 0.90 g occurs at 250°C, corresponding to the loss of the remaining water molecules.
