A sample solution containing quinine was analysed by fluorescence spectroscopy. 5 mL of the sample solution was diluted with 0.1 M HCl to a final volume of 100 mL. The fluorescence of the solution was measured and gave a value of 54. A reference solution containing 0.086 mg/mL of quinine gave a fluorescence reading of 38. A blank solution gave a fluorescence reading of 21. Calculate the quinine content of the sample solution in mg/mL.

The levels of Vitamin B1 in a sample of milk was determined using the Standard Addition method and technique of fluorescence spectroscopy. 18.0 ml of the milk sample was diluted to 20.0 ml using distilled water and then the fluorescence was measured. The resulting signal was 210 units. A spike was made by taking 18.0 ml of the same milk sample, adding 1.0 ml of a 6.0 ppm Vitamin B1 standard solution, and then diluting to 20.0 ml using distilled water. The signal of the spiked milk was 540 units. Calculate the concentration of Vitamin B1 in the original milk sample (in ppm). Report to 3 decimal places.
In order to measure riboflavin in a breakfast cereal, a 5.00-gram sample of the cereal was extracted with acetic acid and filtered. The extract was transferred to a 50.0 mL volumetric flask and diluted to the mark. The sample was transferred to a cuvette and the fluorescence was measured. The instrument read 59 units (Fluorescence units –an arbitrary scale). 24.00 mL of the cereal extract was sample was mixed with 1.0 mL of a riboflavin standard that was 0.500 ug/mL. The fluorescence of this mixture was measured and read 94 fluorescence units. Calculate the concentration of riboflavin per gram of cereal (use µg/gram of cereal).

A 25.0 mL aliquot was taken from a 500.0 mL sample of tonic water containing an unknown amount of quinine and diluted to a volume of 200 mL. At 347.5 nm, the fluorescence intensity of the diluted sample was measured 85.7 an arbitrary scale. Under similar conditions, a 27.5 ppm standard quinine solution had a fluorescence intensity of 185. Calculate the mass of quinine in the original tonic water sample in mg. Do not include units in your answer.
Suppose you are analyzing mercury ions (Hg2+) in drinking water samples with atomic absorption spectroscopy. If the Hg2+ signal varies by a matrix of sample, which of the following should be used as a standard for calibration? Either cations or anions can be used if they are different from Hg2+, 0 H20 Any anions can be used if they are different from Hg2+ Any cations can be used if they are different from Hg?". Hg2+
The maximum number of spectra that can be recorded per second by ToF-MS is limited by the time taken by the slowest ions to go from the source to the detector. If the slowest ion took 45.6 microsecond to travel, at what frequency could you record spectra if a new extraction cycle were begun each time this heaviest ion reached the detector? 30000 spectra/s 10000 spectra/s 11000 spectra/s 500 spectra/s 22000 spectra/s
Quinine in a 1.939-g tablet was to be analyzed by dissolving it with 0.10 M HCl to a final volume of exactly 500 mL.

Under identical experimental conditions, a standard 150.0-ppm had an intensity of 184.Quinine in a 1.939-g tablet was to be analyzed by dissolving it with 0.10 M HCl to a final volume of exactly 500 mL.
