A standard 10.00 g mass is weighed on an analytical balance 100 times. The average and standard deviation obtained gives 10.12 ±

0.03 g. A calibration service is called. After the balance is recalibrated, the new measurements show 10.00 ± 0.03 g. Did the recalibration result in improved accuracy or precision?

Answer:

There was an improvement in accuracy. There was no change in precision.

Explanation:

<em>The average mass after recalibration is closer to the mass of the standard, </em>so the recalibration improved the accuracy<em> </em>(the measurement is closer to an accepted 'true' value).

The standard deviation did not change, so the precision (or how disperse the measurements are) was not affected.

Stella [2.4K]

Given :

On a shelf sits a bottle of NaCl solutions with a molar concentration of 2.50 M and a total volume of 300 mL. If 15.0 mL of the solution is added to 985 mL of pure water .

To Find :

The molar concentration of NaCl in the new solution.

Solution :

Molarity M is given by :

M=\dfrac{\text{Total number of moles}}{\text{Volume in liters}}

Now , 1000 ml of NaCl contains 2.5 moles of NaCl .

So , 15 ml of NaCl contains :

n=\dfrac{15\times 2.5}{1000}\\\\n=3.75\times 10^{-2}\ moles

New , volume V = 15 + 985 = 1000 ml = 1 L .

So , putting value of n and V in above equation :

M=\dfrac{3.75\times 10^{-2}}{1}\ M\\\\M=0.0375\ M

Therefore ,  the molar concentration of NaCl in the new solution is 0.0375 M .

Hence , this is the required solution .
