Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The signal-to-noise ratio is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The signal and noise are two components of instrument measurements. One component is the signal, which carries the information that is of interest to the scientists and another component is the noise which refers to the unwanted fluctuations of signals.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The number of measurements required to obtain a S/N of 10 is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The signal and noise are two components of instrument measurements. One component is the signal, which carries the information that is of interest to the scientists and another component is the noise which refers to the unwanted fluctuations of signals. For n number of repetitions the signal to noise ratio is proportional to square root of number of repetitions.

7) A 25.0 ml sample containing Cu gave an instrument reading of 23.6 units (corrected for a blank). When exactly 0.500 ml of 0.0287M Cu(NO3)2 Was added to the solution,the signal increased to 37.9 units. Calculate the molar concentration of Cu" in the sample +2,
A molecular exclusion column has a diameter of 7.8 mm and a length of 30 cm. The solid portion of the particles occupies 20% of the volume, the pores occupy 40%, and the volume between particles occupies 40%. (a) At what volume would totally excluded molecules be expected to emerge? (b) At what volume would the smallest molecules be expected? (c) A mixture of polymers of various molecular masses is eluted between 23 and 27 mL. What does this imply about the retention mechanism for these solutes on the column?
