When generating a calibration curve, what information typically goes on the x and y axes, ie, which axis is the dependent variable, and which axis is the independent variable?

Answer:

[tex]x-Concentration\\y-Absorbance[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A [tex]calibration\ curve[/tex] is a general method for determining concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing it to standard samples of known concentrations.

X- axis [tex]([/tex][tex]Concentration)[/tex] is the independent variable. It is chosen by the experimenter. It is independent because the experimenter choose at what concentration levels to take [tex]Absorbance[/tex] measurements.

Y-axis [tex](Absorbance)[/tex] is the dependent variable. Absorbance rates will depend on the concentration levels set by the experimenter.
