What is a reasonable percent error in chemistry?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]3 years ago
8 0
For physics, we use half the smallest division of the equipment used. 
For chemistry, it should be the same. 

The formula for percent error: delta(x)/x * 100% = delta(y)/y 

Hope I helped :)

Several paint mixtures are made by mixing blue paint and white paint. Paint Colors Blue Paint White Paint Mixture A 5 cups 12 cu
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The mixture C is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation is as follows:

For Mixture A

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

The ratio between them is 5:12

For Mixture B

Blue Paint - 6 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

 The ratio between them is 6:6 = 12:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

For Mixture C

Blue Paint - 4 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

 The ratio between them is 4:12

For Mixture D

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

 The ratio between them is 5:6 = 10:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

As it can be seen that in all four mixtures the denominator is the same so for calculating the lowest ratio we have to see the small value in the numerator

As it can be seen that there is a small value of 4

hence, the mixture C is the correct option

A card is being drawn from a standard deck of playing cards. Find each probability.
EastWind [94]
These are 6 questions and 6 answers.

To find each probability we will use the definition of probability:

Probability = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

1) <span>P(Jack or ten)
</span>

<span>Answer: 2/13 ≈ 0.12
</span>

Justification:

i) Positive outcomes: A standard deck of cards has 4 jacks and 4 tens, then those are 4 + 4 = 8 different positive outcomes.

ii) Possible outcomes: a standard deck of cards has 52 different cards, so, that is a total of 52 different possible outcomes

 
iii) Probability, P


P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 8 / 52 = 2/13 ≈ 0.15

<span> 2.P(red or black)
</span>

Answer: 1

Justification:

i) Positive outcomes

Half of the cards are red and half of the cards are black, so they both add for the total of the cards = 52


ii) Possible outcomes: 52 cards


iii) Probaility, P 

P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 52 / 52 = 1

<span> 3.P(queen or club)
</span>

Answer: 4/13 ≈ 0.31

Justification:


i) Positive outcomes

There are 4 Queens.

There are 1/4 of 52 clubs = 1/4 × 52 = 13 clubs.

But you cannot add all of them, because one club is the Quenn of Clubs.

Then, the total number of different Queens and clubs is 4 + 13 - 1 = 16



ii) Possible outcomes: 52 different cards


iii) Probaility, P

P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 16 /52 = 4 / 13 ≈ 0.31


<span> 4.P(red or ace)
</span>

Answer: 7 / 13 ≈ 0.54


Justification:


i) Positive outcomes

Half of the cards are red: 26

There are 4 aces. 

Since 2 aces are red, the number of different red and aces cards is: 26 + 4 - 2 = 28

ii) Possible outcomes: 52 different outcomes


iii) Probaility, P

P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 28 / 52 = 7 / 13 ≈ 0.54

<span> 5.P(diamond or black)
</span><span>
</span>
Answer: 1/2 = 0.5

Justification:

i) Positive outcomes

There are 52 / 4 = 13 diamonds

There are 26 black cards.


All the diamonds are black cards.

Then, the number of different diamond or black cards is 13 + 26 - 13 = 26

ii) Possible outcomes: 52 different cards.

iii) Probaility, P

P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 26 / 52 = 1/2 = 0.5

6.P(face card or spade)

Answer: 11/26 ≈ 0.42


Justification:

i) Positive outcomes

Face cards are jacks, queens and kings. That is 3 × 4 = 12 different cards.

The spades are 13 cards.

Since, 3 of the faces are spade cards, the number of different cards of those types are 12 + 13 - 3 = 22


ii) Possible outcomes: 52 different cards


iii) Probaility, P

P = number of positive outcomes / number of total possible outcomes

P = 22 / 52 = 11 / 26 ≈ 0.42
