Calculation of the mass concentration ρρ
eff,seff,s
The sought mass concentration ρ
eff,seff,s
of the sample is calculated by inserting
EV
s
.mean in the calibration function determined earlier:
c ρ
eff,seff,s
4
+ b ρ
eff,seff,s
– a = EV
s
.mean
In the graphical representation of the calibration curve, EV
s
.mean and the
calculated mass concentration ρ
eff,seff,s
are marked:

Calculation of the mass concentration ρρ
ss
The found, effective mass concentration ρ
eff,seff,s
is converted into the sought
mass concentration ρ
ss
by taking the dilution into account (see section 6.9.2):
Mass conc. = ρ
ss
= ρ

Calculation of the total scatter MC.dev
The total scatter σ
xx
is calculated from the two error contributions of the
calibration and the measurement as described in section 6.9.3:
(σ
x x
)
22
= (σ
x,Mx,M
)
22
+ (σ
x,Cx,C
)
22
As these scatters refer to the effective mass concentration ρ
eff,seff,s
, they must
also be converted by taking the dilution into account:
MC.dev. = σ
xx
/ f
VV
Meas.dev. = σ
x,Mx,M
/ f
VV
Cal.dev. = σ
x,Cx,C
/ f
VV
To be able to calculate Cal.dev., the following conditions for the number of
measured value pairs n in the calibration must be met:
n ≥ 2 for y = bx
n ≥ 3 for y = a + bx
n ≥ 3 for y = bx + cx
4
n ≥ 4 for y = a + bx + cx
4
If this is not the case, Cal.dev.= 0 is set and the message no cal.devia-
tion put out on the "RESULTS/Evaluations" page.
The calculation of Meas.dev. uses the number of measured value pairs m in
the measurement of the sample solution. The following cases must be
distinguished:
