Question

Atomic absorption spectroscopy with graphite furnace atomization is an extremely sensitive technique. The standard addition method is used with this technique to determine the concentration of copper in urine. A 20.00 mL sample of urine is spiked with 1.00 mL of 300. ppb Cu²+ and this mixture gives a response of 0.168. Another 1.00 mL aliquot of 300. ppb Cu²+ is added to this mixture and gives a reading of 0.235
Determine the concentration of copper in the urine sample
