Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The signal-to-noise ratio is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The signal and noise are two components of instrument measurement. One component is the signal, which carries information that is of interest to scientists and another component is noise, which is the unwanted fluctuations of signals.

The extinction coefficient for DCPIP is 3500 L/mole/cm under the specific conditions used. What proportion (as a percentage) of light would emerge from the other side of the cuvette?arrow_forwarda sample of butyl benzoate is prepared to use as an internal standard. The results of a preliminary run, which used a solution known to contain 1.53 mg/mL of methyl benzoate (peak A) and1.68 mg/mL of butyl benzoate (peak B), are shown. The area of peak A is determined to be 352 and the area of peak B is determined to be 416 measured in arbitrary units by the computer. To measure the sample, 1.00 mL of a standard sample of butyl benzoate containing 2.19 mg/mL is mixed with 1.00 mL of the plant stream material. Analysis of the mixture gave a peak area of 449 for peak A and 411 for peak B.
