Answer:

Accuracy of values

Explanation:

They're correct due to margin error of ±0.5 during an experiment.

1 min 15 seconds is equivalent to 75 seconds.

However the other one was 75.5 seconds.

Using the margin error of ±0.5 during recording, they're both correct.

Note : Accuracy is the closeness of agreement between a measured value and a true or accepted value. Measurement error is the amount of inaccuracy.

Precision is a measure of how well a result can be determined (without reference to a theoretical or true value). It is the degree of consistency and agreement among independent measurements of the same quantity; also the reliability or reproducibility of the result.

The uncertainty estimate associated with a measurement should account for both the accuracy and precision of the measurement.

In this case, this is an argument of who was more accurate and judging by this standard, they're both accurate but not necessarily precise since their values are not exact with each other.

Why there are different branches of chemistry
fredd [130]
The 5 branches are organic, inorganic, biochemistry, analytical, and physical. There are different branches because they each apply to different parts of chemistry. For example organic chemistry is the study of carbon compounds and inorganic chemistry is the study of non carbon compounds. You can't just have one type of chemistry because these are very different.

when you started the activity, the can was open to the air outside tge can. how did the air pressure inside the can compare to t
aliya0001 [1]

The air pressure inside the can is lower compared to that of outside air pressure.

Explanation:

  • In general, the air pressure of an already opened can will be the same as the outside pressure.
  • Since the can is evacuated and remain as vacuum, so there will be no pressure difference in it.
  • If the can opens, air inside the can push the top and escapes to the outside.
  • This is due to high pressure experienced outside the can compare to that of lower pressure inside the can and this may even cause can to collapse itself.
