    small volumes. A micropipette is standard laboratory equipment used to measure and dispense a specific volume of liquid (#5 buffalostate.edu). This is a very helpful tool that we need to master and able to use in a biochemistry lab. The purpose of this lab exercise is learning how to use a micropipette to find the density of different liquids, and be able to identify an unknown liquid using density. Also, learn how to evaluate the experimental accuracy, precise, and error of small volumes used in

    accurate and precise measurements while utilizing the correct volumetric containers that are used to quantify data. That way, all information that is collected can be trusted and accurately reflects the facts of the investigation. When measuring the volume of aqueous solutions, it is imperative to acknowledge the accuracy, precision, and percent error of the measurements. Accuracy is how close the results are to the actual accepted measurement, also known as the “true” value. Precision is how close

    Gummy Bear Lab 1. The volume of the gummy bear increased when we put it in water for twenty four hours. Originally, the volume of the bear was 1.75cm3. After the bear was in the water for twenty four hours, its volume increased to 10.5cm3. So, to find the change in volume, you subtract the new amount from the original. 10.5cm3-1.75cm3= 8.75cm3. The change in volume is 8.75cm3. 2. If we used water displacement to find the volume of the gummy bear instead of the formula (l*w*h) the results would

    One good thing was that the volume of the film canister was measured properly. Some problems were that when the water in the canister was poured into the graduated cylinder, a few drops of water spilled back into the tub of water. Also on the graduated cylinder had lines to the nearest millimeter but the meniscus was in between two lines so the measurement was not completely accurate. There were a few extraneous variables. One of the extraneous variables was the volume was calculated from a separate
