What are the steps in the Chapman cycle? Explain the importance.
If you repeat the same measurement many times, will you always obtain exactly the same result? Why or why not? What factors influence the repeatability of a measurement?
Scientific models do not describe reality. They are simplifications aid therefore incorrect at some level. So why are models useful?
Explain the difference between random error and systematic error.

Two students determine the percentage of lead in a sampleas a laboratory exercise. The true percentage is 22.52%. Thestudents’ results for three determinations are as follows:(1) 22.52, 22.48, 22.54(2) 22.64, 22.58, 22.62(a) Calculate the average percentage for each set of data andstate which set is the more accurate based on the average.(b) Precision can be judged by examining the average of thedeviations from the average value for that data set. (Calculatethe average value for each data set; then calculate the averagevalue of the absolute deviations of each measurementfrom the average.) Which set is more precise?
The following four measurements were made for an objectwhose true mass is 4.56 g.4.55 g, 4.56 g, 4.56 g, 4.57 gDescribe the measurements in terms of their accuracy andtheir precision.
A group of five students attempted to estimate 100 g of a substance by balancingthe amount of the substance with a 100-g standard mass and obtained the followingmasses after each estimated amount was weighed: 95.8634 g, 80.8125 g, 106.5078g, 98.2865 g, and 86.4453 g. Create a data table as shown below and use the datato determine the answers to the following questions:Mass (g) Deviation (g) % Deviation Error (g) % Errora) What is the mean? And what is the true value?b) What are the deviation and % deviation from the mean for each value?c) What are the error and % error for each value?
To identify a liquid substance, a student determined itsdensity. Using a graduated cylinder, she measured out a 45-mLsample of the substance. She then measured the mass of thesample, finding that it weighed 38.5 g. She knew that the substancehad to be either isopropyl alcohol 1density 0.785 g>mL2or toluene 1density 0.866 g>mL2. What are the calculated densityand the probable identity of the substance?
The pharmacist attempts to weigh 0.375 g o morphine sulfate on a balance of dubious accuracy. When checked on a highly accurate balance, the weight is found to be 0.400 g. Calculate the percentage of error in the first weighing.
