hi
i m studing AAS(atomic absorption specvtroscopy) technique.using beer"s law i plot a graph bw absorbance and concentration.then how can i make the quantitative analysis of my sample?

well once u have plotted ur data it comes up with a diagonal line

you look at the value given for absorbance of ur sample

look at the Y AXIS of the graph, find that absorbance, then find the corresponding concentration (X AXIS VALUE) that goes with that absorbance

.....hmmmmm does that make it any clearer?

yea yea cos quantitative is to give a numeric value to it

so by stating a concentration (most likely in ppm) u are giving a quantitative result

xD

Use the standard calibration curve in place of the one and do as GU(Sx13) said:
"you look at the value given for absorbance of ur sample

ok,me sending graph and table of sample.the values of absorbance and their corresponding values of concentration are given.then hw can i use the standard calibration method?
