The purity of a sample of K3Fe(CN)6 is determined using hydrodynamic voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode. The following data were obtained for a set of calibration standards. A sample of impure K3Fe(CN)6 is prepared for analysis by diluting a 0.264 g portion to volume in a 100 mL volumetric flask. The limiting current for the sample is 444 μA. a) What type of calibration method is used? (Internal Standard, External Standard, or Standard Addition?) b) What is the purity of this sample of K3Fe(CN)6 (FW=329.25 g/mol)?
