A confidence interval is an estimated range of a parameter of interest. Confidence intervals are used to indicate the reliability of an estimate. For example, a confidence interval can be used to describe how reliable a search result is.

In other words, a high confidence interval Z value implies that a survey is more likely to indicate the actual values being presented.

In biostatistics, for example, the Z value can be used in calculations to assess the prevalence of a particular disease and the factors associated with it in a population.

The value of Z, however, is not used as a percentage (like the 99.5% addressed in this question) for calculations. A universal table is used to convert Z values and use them in statistical calculations.

Some examples of Z value conversions can be found in the table attached in this question.

Using the particulate model of matter explain why gases are less dense than solids and liquids?

Fiesta28 [93]

Explanation:

In gases, the forces between particles are very weak. This explains why the particles in gases are not neatly arranged. They are not held together tightly and there are large spaces between them. These spaces are much larger than in the solid and liquid state.
