Question

A student performs an experiment to determine the density of a sugar solution. She obtains the following results: 1.11 g/mL, 1.81 g/mL, 1.95 g/mL, 1.75 g/mL. If the actual value for the density of the sugar solution is 1.75 g/mL, which statement below best describes her results?
A) Her results are precise, but not accurate.
B) Her results are accurate, but not precise.
C) Her results are both precise and accurate
D) Her results are neither precise nor accurate.
E) It isn't possible to determine with the information given.

The answer is D, I don't know why they choose D?

Answer 1

Answer:

D. her results are neither precise, nor accurate

Explanation:

Reason being that: First, she obtained four different result for an experiment ( obviously it's supposed to be one value for the different procedure or atleast very close range) sugar solution and all four values were far apart.
