Chemistry
1 answer:
azamat3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Accuracy is defined is as the ability to perfectly repeat results in an experiment. It is simply reproducing the same set of result with little to no altercation.

Precision is nearness of the result to the true value.

(a) Checking for consistency in the weight of chocolate chip cookies: 17.27 g, 13.05 g, 19.46 g, 16.92 g

The result above is neither accurate nor precise. We can see a lot of inconsistencies in the readings shown and no repeatability whatsoever.

(b) Testing the volume of a batch of 25- mL pipettes: 27.02mL, 26.99 mL, 26.97 mL, 27.01 mL

The results here are accurate but not precise. They are a little bit off the 25mL mark but the experiment was able to reproduce nearly the same result.

(c)Determining the purity of gold: 99.9999%, 99.9998%, 99.9999%

This result is both precise and accurate. Pure Gold should be 100% and our values are very close. The experiment also was able to generate very accurate results.

A. and D. would be the best pick for this sort of experiment, but maybe (unlikely) B. because you could see how they could react in certain situations, how they react to danger but I suggest A.

Hope this helps you ☁︎☀︎☁︎

Why does heating a liquid affect viscosity
sveta [45]

Answer:

In general, liquids tend to get “thinner” when their temperature increases. For example, honey and oil tend to flow better at higher temperatures. Therefore, increasing temperature decreases viscosity. In general, the liquids tend to expand when their temperature increases
