A scientist wishes to measure the concentration of methyl benzoate in a plant stream by gas chromatography. He prepares a sample of butyl benzoate to use as an internal standard. The results of a preliminary run, which used a solution known to contain mg/mL of butyl benzoate (peak B), are shown. The area of peak A is determined to be and the area of peak B is determined to be measured in arbitrary units by the computer.
To measure the sample, 1.00 mL of a standard sample of butyl benzoate containing mg/mL is mixed with 1.00 mL of the plant stream material. Analysis of the mixture gave a peak area of for peak A and for peak B.
What is the concentration of methyl benzoate in the plant stream?

Respon A scientist wishes to measure the concentration of methyl benzoate in a plant stream by gas chromatography. He prepares a sample of butyl benzoate to use as an internal standard. The results of a preliminary run, which used a solution known to contain 1.71 mg/ml, of methyl benzoate (peak A) and 1.88 mg/mL of butyl benzoate (peak B), are shown. The area of peak A is determined to be 326 and the area of peak B is determined to...

A researcher was attempting to quantify the amount of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) in spinach with gas chromatography using a chloroform internal standard. To begin, the researcher examined a sample containing 7.88 mg/L DDT standard and 3.80 mg/L chloroform as the internal standard, producing peak areas of 3953 and 6281, respectively. Then, the researcher collected 9.16 g of spinach, homogenized the sample, and extracted the DDT using an established method (assume 100% extraction), producing a 3.24 ml volume of unknown sample. The...

13. A Chemistry major obtains a high paying summer job in an analytical laboratory and is given the task of determining the ethanol content (in vol %) of a commercial bourbon sample. He/she decides to do this by gas chromatography because the GC experiment in Chem 209 was so darn enjoyable. Accordingly, the student takes exactly 10.0 mL of the bourbon sample and dilutes this to exactly 50 mL with deionized water. He/she then injects 2.0 yL of the diluted...

1. A researcher was attempting to quantify the amount of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) in spinach using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GCMS). First attempts using external calibration proved difficult, as reproducibility and external standard agreement were poor. To overcome these problems, the researcher used the internal standard calibration method with chloroform as the internal standard. To begin, the researcher analyzed a sample containing 7.92 mg/L DDT standard and 3.32 mg/L chloroform as the internal standard, which produced peak areas of 2919 and...
