Question

You are measuring Ca2+ in drinking water using an ISE. You diluted 1 mL of the drinking water with 19 mL ddH2O. You have standards of Ca2+ in ddH2O. You add 1 mL of a commercial ISA reagent to 20 mL of each standard or the diluted sample. You then measure the ISE response of each sample using the voltmeter. The following data are obtained:

ID

Ca2+ (?g/L)

Standard

What is the concentration of Ca2+ in the diluted drinking water (?g/L)?

Explanation / Answer

use the values to prepare a line and you can calculate the concentration trough the linear equation

(are you sure about the values? I didn`t use the value at 116. its to far away and at 100 i used 17,8 otherwise it will not fit

y = 0.1597*67.83 -2,8458 = 7.99 = conc of Ca+ in sample
