In the test for control of absorbance in UV calibration why
do we use only potassium dichromate and what is purpose of
taking a specified amount of 57.0-63.0mg?

Potassium Dichromate - UV Absorbance and Linearity
Product Description:
The use of potassium dichromate solvated in dilute
perchloric acid or suplhuric acid is an established and
well recognised method for the validation of the absorbance
scale and linearity of a spectrophotometer in the UV
region.
When prepared in 0.001M perchloric /Suplhuric acid,
potassium dichromate solution gives a spectral scan
containing characteristic peaks at 257 nm and 350 nm, and
troughs at 235 nm and 313 nm. Within the concentration
range 20-100 mg/l, if the absorbance scale of a narrow SBW
(< 2 nm) spectrophotometer is linear, the apparent
absorbances of a series of concentrations will be a linear
function of concentration.
Note: Primary standard ( Extra pure potassium dichromte
after drying to be used for calibration ) 57-63mg in -
1000ml concentration is perfect concentration for achiving
perfect charecteristic peak and throughs

I have compare C2H2-air and C2H2-N2O flame AAS on determination calcium. Both use same range of std to plot calibration curve. (2-6ppm) When i measure the sample with phosphate, KCl and LaCl, C2H2-N2O flame give false positive result, around 0.5ppm. When i measure the sample with phosphste, KCl and EDTA. C2H2-N2O flame also give 0.5ppm false positive. But both above mentioned sample would not give false positive when measured by C2H2-air flame. What is the reason?
