Standard addition. A blood serum sample containing Na gave an emission signal of 4.27 mV. A small volume of concentrated standard Na was then added to increase the Na concentration by 0.104 M, without significantly  diluting the sample. This “spiked” serum sample gave a signal of 7.98 mV in atomic emission. Find the original concentration of Na in the serum.
