Question
Chapter PSS, Problem 9E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The measurement that corresponds to the buret shown in the given figure is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Many instruments are used to measure physical quantities. The uncertainty in the value of an instrument is the measurement of the degree of inexactness in the reading of the instruments. The uncertainty of an instrument is represented with a plus-minus sign because an error can be added or subtracted from the reading.

The results theyreported were 111.42 g, 111.67 g, 111.21 g, 135.64 g,111.02 g, 111.29 g, and 111.42 g.(a) Should any of the data be excluded before the average is calculated?(b) From the remaining measurements, calculate the average value of the mass of the water in the beaker.(c) Calculate the standard deviation s and, from it, the 95% confidence limit.arrow_forwardWhich of the following represents the precision of a set of measurements? A student used water displacement method to measure the density of a metal. The average result of five attempts was 2.763 g/mL, and the calculated standard deviation was 0.026 g/mL. How should the result be reported in a "mean +/- st. dev." format? The molar mass of butane (C4H10) is 58 g/mol. If a student measured the molar mass of butane to be 63, what is the % error of the measurement? Use no decimal place when entering the answer.

- The mass unit associated with density is usually grams. If the volume (in mLmL or cm3cm3) is multiplied by the density (g/mLg/mL or g/cm3g/cm3) the volume units will cancel out, leaving only the mass units. Keep in mind that the volume and density must use the same volume unit for the cancellation. If a large marshmallow has a volume of 3.00 in3in3 and density of 0.242 g/cm3g/cm3, how much would it weigh in grams? 1 in3=16.39 cm31 in3=16.39 cm3.arrow_forwardIf the denisty of Platnuim is 19.32 g/cm3 what could the dimnesions of a cube be that weighted 1.00 kilogram. using a conversion tablearrow_forwardBud N.

Independent studies found the correct density to be 5.06 g/cm3. Which of the following is incorrect? a. The mean of his analysis is 5.03 g/cm3 indicating an error of 0.03 g/cm3 from the correct density B.His data has a standard deviation of 0.017 g/cm3 C.His data has a relative standard deviation of 2.60% D. He can report his analyzed density as 5.0±0.2 g/cm3 at a 95% confidence level E. The true value (population mean) is found within the confidence interval of Bud’s workarrow_forward
