Interpretation:
The signal-to-noise ratio is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The signal and noise are two components of instrument measurements. One component is the signal, which carries the information that is of interest to the scientists and another component is the noise which refers to the unwanted fluctuations of signals.

Give the value of the molecular mass and nominal mass of benzene, C6H6.arrow_forward(B) A 0.05 mM solution of DCPIP was placed in a 1 cm spectrophotometer cuvette and a beam of light at 600nm was passed through the cuvette. The extinction coefficient for DCPIP is 3500 L/mole/cm under the specific conditions used. What proportion (as a percentage) of light would emerge from the other side of the cuvette?arrow_forward(b) The random error, r', on the result, R, is given by F = √()*² + ( )² R where v', and v, are the random errors on V', and Vt, respectively (1) Let V=26.00 mL, V = 24.00 mL; v' = ±0.01 (3) mL, vt = ±0.01 (2) mL. What is the percentage random error, r'/R x 100%, on R?

- (b) A system with chemical potential u = 12.5 meV contains identical particles each with integer spin and has a single quantum state at energy E, = 0 meV. The temperature of the system is fixed at 290 K. To three significant figures, what is the ratio Pg/P1, where P is the probability of finding a single particle in the state Eo, and P3 is the probability of finding 3 particles in this state? P3/P (Input your answer as a number.)arrow_forwardA standard solution was prepared containing 10.0 ppm of an analyte and 15.0 ppm of an internal standard. Analysis of the sample gave signals for the analyte and internal standard of 0.155 and 0.233 (arbitrary units), respectively. Sufficient internal standard was added to an unknown sample to make it 15.0 ppm in the internal standard. Analysis of the unknown sample yielded signals for the analyte and internal standard of 0.274 and 0.198, respectively. Calculate the concentration of analyte in the unknown sample.arrow_forwardThe student was supposed to measure the pH of a 0.1 M hydrochloric acid solution. For this purpose, he used a pH-meter and obtained the following results: 0.90, 0.93, 1.04, 1.02. Present the appropriate graphic and statistical elaboration of the performed analysis and confirm whether the applied pH-meter worked properly.arrow_forward
