Caution
The values for the axis intercept E(0), the slope s and the concentration
c
A
can only be iteratively recalculated out of voltages U
i
measured for the
sample and the spiked solutions and the known concentration of the
standard which requires a lot of effort because it is about an equation
system with 3 unknowns. At least, the concentration c
S
is easily recalcu-
lable with the values for E(0), U
S
and s calculated by tiamo (see following
example).

Recalculation
c
A
= 10
^ ((59.8− 129.7) / -61.5) = 13.696
c(F
-
) = (10 + 10) / 10 * 13.696 = 27.39 ppm
