The oxidation number of bromine in KBr is to be determined. Concept introduction: Oxidation of a species involves the loss of electrons by that species and reduction of a species involves the gain of electrons by that species. The oxidation number is defined as the formal charge an atom would gain if all the bonds attached to it in a compound are heterolytically cleaved. Oxidation number can be a positive or negative number but cannot be fractional.

There is an instrument in Johnson 334 that measures total-reflectance x-ray fluorescence (TXRF) to do elemental analysis (i.e., determine what elements are present in a sample). A researcher is preparing a to measure calcium content in a series of well water samples by TXRF with an internal standard of vanadium (atomic symbol: V). She has prepared a series of standard solutions to ensure a linear instrument response over the expected Ca concentration range of 40-80 ppm. The concentrations of Ca and V (ppm) and the instrument response (peak area, arbitrary units) are shown below. Also included is a sample spectrum. Equation 1 describes the response factor, K, relating the analyte signal (SA) and the standard signal (SIS) to their respective concentrations (CA and CIS).
