    the standard error to observe the reliability of proposed average. Ideally, the metal would identify more comparably with gold or aluminum. The concepts of mass density, standard error, average, one-dimensional statistics, precision / accuracy, and test of accuracy were explored. A hollow cylinder of metal was given to each lab group. Initially, the mass of the metal was determined with a double pan balance. The metal was placed on the balance and the instrument’s notch and slider was used

    many studies on eyewitness testimony (EWT). In 1974 she worked with John Palmer to look at the ways that memory can be distorted. The studies general aim was to explore the accuracy of memory after witnessing a car accident. In particular it was to find out if leading questions distort the accuracy of eyewitness’s immediate recall. It also aimed to see if it was true that people were open to hints, as people are extremely bad at estimating the speed of moving cars.

    Both density experiments could have been completed at different climates/temperatures at the time of data collection. Additionally, the data was rounded at many points throughout the experiment to obey the rules of significant figures, losing the accuracy of the data. Ethanol (rubbing alcohol), obtained an experimental density of 0.76 and a theoretical density of 0.78 (Ausetute.com.au, 2017). Subsequently, ethanol received a small percentage error of 2.6% because, even though the difference in density
