An analysis of city drinking water for total hardness was done by two students in the laboratory and produced the following results (in ppm CaCO3): Student A: 228.3, 226.4, 226.9, 227.1, and 228.6. Student B: 229.5, 226.1, 230.7, 223.8, and 227.5What is the 95% confidence interval for the mean?
A titrimetric method for the determination of calcium in limestone was tested with the analysis of a NIST limestone containing 30.15% CaO. The mean of the four analyzes is 30.26% CaO with a standard deviation of 0.085%. From the data accumulated from many analyzes, s→ϭ=0.094% CaO was found.a) Do the data indicate the presence of systematic error at the 95% confidence level?b) When a value for ϭ is unknown, do the data show a systematic error at the 95% confidence level?
1. Replicate analyses of the lead content in a blood sample gave the following results: 0.789, 0.781, 0.795, 0.792, and 0.784 ppm Pb. Calculate the mean, standard deviation, variance, relative standard deviation, and standard deviation of the mean of the data.
Estimate the absolute standard deviation (or uncertainty) for the results of the following calculations. Round each result so that it contains only significant digits. The numbers in parentheses are absolute standard deviations. Show your solution and express the final answer and its corresponding uncertainty. a) y= 2.998(±0.002) - 3.98 (±0.15) + 9.035 (±0.002) = 8.0531 b) y= 39.2(±0.3) x 3.054 (±0.022) x 10^ -2 = 1.197 c) y= [198(±6) - 89 (±3)] / 1335 (±2) + 64 (±7)] = 7.791 x 10^-2
A titrimetric method for the determination of calcium in limestone was tested by analysis of an NIST limestone containing 30.15% CaO. The mean result of four analyses was 30.26% CaO, with a standard deviation of 0.085%. By pooling data from several analyses, it was established that s   = 0.094% CaO.a. Do the data indicate the presence of a systematic error at the 95% confidence level?b. Do the data indicate the presence of systematic error at the 95% confidence level if no pooled value for s was available?

A quantitative analysis for an analyte gives a mean concentration of 12.6 ppm. The standard deviation due to the method, sm, is found to be 1.1 ppm, and that due to sampling, ss, is 2.1 ppm. By how much does the overall variance change if sm is improved by 10% and ss is improved by 15%?
Chemistry The levels of an organic pollutant (P) in the groundwater at the perimeter of a plant were a cause for concern. A 10 mL sample of the water was taken and the pollutant was extracted with 95% efficiency using 25 mL of diethyl ether. GC was used to analyse the concentration of P in diethyl ether. A calibration curve was plotted for a series of standards of P which yielded the following results: Peak Area Toluene Conc. (µg/ml) 12,000 2.6 23,700 5.0 35,500 7.7 46,800 9.9 31,250 Sample Determine the concentration of P in ppb in the initial groundwater sample.
A powder was prepared containing 3.00% NaCN and 97.00% NaCl. A sample obtained from that mixture containing 7.374×10^5 particles weighs 10.0 g. Determine the number and percent relative standard deviation of NaCN particles from a sample of the mixture weighing 6.30 g. I need nNaCN particles and %RSD
Approximately 15% of the particles in a shipment of silver-bearing ore are judged to be argentite (d=7.3 g/cm^3, 87% Ag); the remainder are siliceous (d=2.6 g/cm^3) and contain essentially no silver. a. Calculate the number of particles that should be taken for the gross sample if the relative standard deviation due to sampling is to be 2% or less. b. Estimate the mass of the gross sample, assuming that the particles are spherical and have an average diameter of 3.5 mm.
