Abstract.
Ion chromatography was used to determine anionic impurities in sodium chloride. All measurements were carried out as standard addition experiments.
A novel equation was derived to evaluate these standard addition experiments. Commonly used standard addition equations imply two simplifying assumptions: each solution contains exactly the same amount of unknown sample, and each solution is diluted up to exactly the same volume. The equation presented overcomes these limitations. Correct results are calculated even if none of the assumptions are met in practice.
Simulations based on the presented ion chromatographic measurements show the suitability of the novel equation even under unusual experimental conditions.
