Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are using AAS to determine lead concentration in a water sample. If the absorbance measured is 0.400 and the calibration curve provided a slope of 0.120 (Absorbance per ppm), calculate the concentration of lead in the sample.

💡 Hint: Revisit the relationship defined by Beer’s Law.

Question 2

Analyze a situation where spectral interference occurs in your AAS results. Describe how you would identify and correct this issue.

💡 Hint: Reflect on previous discussions regarding interferences.
