How can you calculate manually "Slope" in pH calibration?..

Answer / chmreddy

A good electrode has a mV of 0 ± 30 mV in pH 7.
The slope should be 90 to 105%.
Example:
Readings
pH 4 : 4.29
pH 7 : 7.43
Convert pH 7 reading to mV
7 – 7.43 = -0.43 pH * 59.16 mV/pH = -25.44 (this value is okay because it is within 0 ± 30mV)
Convert pH 4 reading to mV
7 – 4.29 = 2.71 pH * 59.16 mV/pH = 160.32
Calculate slope
160.32 – (-25.44) = 185.76 mV/ 177.48 mV * 100 = 105 %
(this value is borderline as 105% is the upper limit)

hii, i'm had a sample of 1L that gone through extraction & evaporation. i used 0.5ml of methanol for reconstitution before injecting the sample to HPLC. i made a calibration curve using a standard solution but now i'm confused about how to display the concentration i got from the sample. for ex. i got 0.2ug/ml how i'm gonna explane this is for the 1L ? please help .. i'll really appreciate it thanks
