Selenium from 0.108 g of Brazil nuts was converted into a fluorescent product, which was extracted into 10.0 mL of cyclohexane. Then 2.00 mL of the cyclohexane solution were placed in a cuvet for fluorescence measurements.
A.) Standard additions of fluorescent product containing 1.4ug Se/mL are given in a table:
Volume of standard added (uL):
0, 10, 20 , 30 40
Fluorescence intensity:
41,4, 49.2, 56.4, 63.8, 70.3
What is the weight % of Se in the nuts?
I made a graph from the values to get a line y = 0.724x + 41.74. Setting y = 0, x = 57.65
I'm not sure what's the next step in solving this.
