Answer:
2 is the correct answer maybe
Answer:
It is both accurate and precise.
Explanation:
Precision and accuracy are two different terms used to describe data or measurements. Accuracy refers to how close a set of measurements/experimental values is to an accepted or correct value while Precision refers to how close a series of experimental values are to one another.
In the given set of data in the question below, the Correct Value is 59.2 while the experimental values are as follows;
Trial 1: 58.7
Trial 2: 59.3
Trial 3: 60.0
Trial 4: 58.9
Trial 5: 59.2
Based on comparison, it can be observed that these experimental values are close to the correct value (59.2). Hence, they are said to be ACCURATE. Also, the experimental values are close to one another, hence, they are said to be PRECISE.
Therefore, the data set is both accurate and precise.
Answer:
The average atomic weight = 121.7598 amu
Explanation:
The average atomic weight of natural occurring antimony can be calculated as follows :
To calculate the average atomic mass the percentage abundance must be converted to decimal.
121 Sb has a percentage abundance of 57.21%, the decimal format will be
57.21/100 = 0.5721 . The value is the fractional abundance of 121 Sb .
123 Sb has a percentage abundance of 42.79%, the decimal format will be
42.79/100 = 0.4279. The value is the fractional abundance of 123 Sb .
Next step is multiplying the fractional abundance to it masses
121 Sb = 0.5721 × 120.904 = 69.169178400
123 Sb = 0.4279 × 122.904 = 52.590621600
The final step is adding the value to get the average atomic weight.
69.169178400 + 52.590621600 = 121.7598 amu
The correct answer is C. An example of measurement bias in scientific
measurement, of the available answers, would be a balance that always
reads 0.1g. The other possible answers are all examples of devices or
measurement techniques that would help a scientist to avoid measurement
bias, rather than contributing to it.
