Question 1

If you prepared a calibration curve with the following concentrations and measured absorbances: 1.00 mg/L (0.102), 2.00 mg/L (0.204), 6.00 mg/L (0.610), and 8.00 mg/L (0.812). Using a linear regression fit, what is the derived equation, and how would you calculate the concentration of an unknown with an absorbance of 0.550?

💡 Hint: Use the slope from your calculations to find the unknown concentration.
