Question

bromine is a liquid at a room temperature. the volume of the sample of bromine is measured in a 50 mL beaker and a 100 mL beaker. how will the two measurements compare?

Answer 1

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but generally it seem to test the knowledge of accuracy. Accuracy is the closeness of a measured value to the specific or actual value of the substance being measured. Hence, the smaller the entire scale that can contain all the substance being measured, the higher the possibility of accuracy to be achieved. For example, a pen of 10.4 cm in length can be better/accurately measured (length) with a 30 cm meter rule than a 1 m  meter rule.

From the question, the 50 mL beaker will provide a "more accurate" measurement of the volume of the bromine than the 100 mL beaker if the 50 mL beaker can contain all the sample of bromine water provided.
