Question

The density of copper is listed as 8.94 g/mL. Two students each make three density determinations through experimentation. Student A's measurements are 6.3 g/mL, 8.9 g/mL, and 11.1 g/mL. Student B's measurements are 8.3 g/mL, 8.2 g/mL, and 8.4 g/mL. Compare the two sets of results in terms of precision and accuracy.

Answer 1

Answer:A) After the values are added, we determine how many significant figures are involved by looking at the decimal places of the original values. 52.13 had only 2 digits past the decimal point so the answer can only contain 2 significant numbers after the decimal point which would be 53.88 g
