Question

Five standard chromium (VI) solutions were prepared through serial dilution technique with corresponding absorbance readings at 540 nm wavelength (as follows:

 Absorbance               Concentration

A1 = 0.650                  C1 = 1.9   ppm

A2 = 0.712                  C2 = 4.0   ppm

A3 = 1.370                  C3 = 6.0   ppm

A4 = 2.050                  C4 = 8.0   ppm

A5 = 3.423                  C5 = 10.0 ppm

The sample solution gives an average absorbance reading of 0.713. What is then the concentration of chromium (VI) ion in the sample?
