OBJECTIVES
- Prepare new CuSO4 standards for Atomic Absorption
- Re-examine NaMT-CuSO4 exchanged filtrate solutions using Atomic Absorption
- Crosslink all porphyrin films prepared
- Prepare new crosslinking fixant solutions
New CuSO4 Dilution Standards for Atomic Absorption
(20 ppm CuSO4)V1 = (0.1 ppm CuSO4)(12mL)
V1 = 0.6mL of 20 ppm CuSO4
- Solution 0.5 ppm CuSO4 requires
(20 ppm CuSO4)V1 = (0.5 ppm CuSO4)(12mL)
V1 = 1.2mL of 20 ppm CuSO4
- Solution 1 ppm CuSO4 requires
(20 ppm CuSO4)V1 = (1 ppm CuSO4)(12mL)
V1 = 3mL of 20 ppm CuSO4
- Solution 2 ppm CuSO4 requires
(20 ppm CuSO4)V1 = (2 ppm CuSO4)(12mL)
V1 = 6mL of 20 ppm CuSO4
- Solution 3 ppm CuSO4 requires
(20 ppm CuSO4)V1 = (3 ppm CuSO4)(12mL)
V1 = 9mL of 20 ppm CuSO4
Using the following concentrations(shown above), a calibration curve was prepared.

Fixant Solution Preparation
- Weigh out ~200g Na2SO4
(Actual Na2SO4 Mass: 199.9953g)
- Add the Na2SO4 solids to a 1000mL closed cap plastic bottle
- Next, add ~1000mL of H2O to the bottle along with large magnetic stir bar
- Place container with the solution on a stir plate and stir solution for ~20 minutes or until all solids dissipate into solution
- Add 20mL of concentrated H2SO4 to solution and continue stirring for ~10 minutes more
