students used a balance and a graduated cylinder to collect the data shown in table 7. calculate the density of the sample. if the accepted density of this sample is 6.95 g/mL, calculate the percent error.

Answer:

              Percentage error  =  1.88 %

Solution:

Data Given:

                 Mass of Sample  =  20.46 g

                 Volume of Sample  =  43.0 mL - 40.0 mL  =  3.0 mL

Formula Used:

                 Density  =  Mass / Volume

Putting values,

                 Density  =  20.46 g /  3.0 mL

                 Density  =  6.82 g.mL⁻¹

Percentage Error:

                 Experimental Value  =  6.82 g.mL⁻¹

                 Accepted Value  =  6.95 g.mL⁻¹

                 = 6.82 g.mL⁻¹ / 6.95 g.mL⁻¹ × 100  =  98.12 %

                 Percentage Error  =  100 % - 98.12 %

                Percentage error  =  1.88 %
