Q: A student measures the temperature of a solution to be $$79\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}$$, but the true value is $$85\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}. $$What is the percent error in this measurement?

$$\displaystyle \frac{79-85}{85} \times 100\% = -7.1\%$$

Question 1

A student measures the mass of a standard 100.00 g weight on two different balances. Balance A gives readings of 100.01, 99.99, 100.00, and 100.00 g. Balance B gives readings of 98.89, 101.09, 100.00, and 99.99 g. Which statement best describes the accuracy and precision of each balance?

Accepted Answer

Balance A is more precise and more accurate than Balance B.

Question 2

Which of the following best describes a measurement that is precise but not accurate?

Accepted Answer
