1. Use Equation 12 to calculate the volume of copper stock solution required to create a copper standard solution with the concentration assigned by your instructor (See data table above). 2. Calculate the mass of copper in the unknown brass solution by multiplying the concentration of copper in the unknown brass solution (mg/mL) by the volume of brass solution prepared (mL). Mass of Cu = (Conc. of Cu) x (Volume of Brass Solution) 3. Calculate the percent weight of copper in the unknown brass solution. %wt Cu =Mass of Copper/Mass of Brass x 100 Discussion State the results of the experiment. Which aspects of the experiment likely impacted your ability to determine an accurate percent weight of copper in the brass sample? If you elected to exclude the results from any of the standards when constructing your calibration curve, please explain your rationale.
