A third spectrophotometric method for the quantitative analysis of Pb2+ in blood uses Cu2+ as an internal standard. A standard containing 1.75 ppb Pb2+ and 2.25 ppb Cu2+ yields a ratio of (SA/SIS)std of 2.37. A sample of blood is spiked with the same concentration of Cu2+, giving a signal ratio, (SA/SIS)samp, of 1.80. Determine the concentration of Pb2+ in the sample of blood.
