Theory and model assumptions

Fit a calibration line to standards, read an unknown sample from it, judge the limit of detection and report the result with its uncertainty.

Teacher guidance

Poly laboratory data analysis: least-squares calibration lines, limit of detection and propagation of uncertainty (generic)

Expected time: 10–15 minutes.
