Interpretation:
The concentration of the free metal ion in the buffer has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:-
Metal ion buffer:
A metal-ion buffer gives a controlled source of free metal ions in a way related to the regulation of hydrogen ion concentration by a pH buffer. A metal-ion buffer solution has the free (hydrated) metal ion along with a complex compound made by the association of the ion with a ligand in excess. The concentration of free metal ion mainly depends on the total concentration of each component (ligand and metal ion) and also on the stability constant of the complex. The concentration of the free metal ion depends upon on solution pH if the ligand can undergo protonation.

Quantitative Chemical Analysis
- Heparin is used as an anti-coagulant. A risk of heparin use is thrombocytopenia, or low platelet count. This risk is minimized with the use of low molecular weight heparins (LMWH), therefore it is desirable to separate LMWH from higher molecular weight heparins. The method of choice to do this is molecular exclusion chromatography. Below is a chromatogram from a molecular exclusion chromatographic run. Peaks ranging from A to J are clearly distinguishable. The heparin mixture that was analyzed had anywhere from 6 to 30 repeat units of monomer (where the heparin with 30 repeat units would be roughly five times the size of the heparin with six repeat units). a. Which letter most likely represents the peak with 6 repeat units given these heparin polymers were separated with molecular exclusion chromatography? b.
