- In order to measure riboflavin in a breakfast cereal, a 5.00-gram sample of the cereal was extracted with acetic acid and filtered. The extract was transferred to a 50.0 mL volumetric flask and diluted to the mark. The sample was transferred to a cuvette and the fluorescence was measured. The instrument read 59 units (Fluorescence units –an arbitrary scale). 24.00 mL of the cereal extract was sample was mixed with 1.0 mL of a riboflavin standard that was 0.500 ug/mL. The fluorescence of this mixture was measured and read 94 fluorescence units. Calculate the concentration of riboflavin per gram of cereal (use µg/gram of cereal).arrow_forwardAn absorbance calibration curve for Zn was fitted to equation A = 0.913×`Zn, ppm`.
