Experiment (i): Statistical Analysis of Data: Standard Deviation, Confidence Limit,
and Outliers
(1) Abstract
The density of distilled water was calculated at standard temperature and pressure. Mass and volume of water samples were found using a analytical balance and volumetric cylinder. Statistical analysis was performed to calculate mean mass, volume, and hence density. Density calculated from these mean values was ρ
=
(

±
0.27
)
g
/
ml
, where the confidence limit is a
propagated error of the density. Density was also calculated using the LINEST function in Excel,
which gave ρ
=

0.97
±
0.023
)
g
/
ml
.
(2) Introduction
The objective of the experiment is to determine the density of distilled water. The experiment is conducted by measuring mass with an analytical balance and volume using a graduated cylinder. The density can then be calculated from the ratio of the changes in mass and volume as drops of water are added. Statistical analysis will be performed.
(3) Theory
Density is a measurement of mass per unit volume (1). Density is a physical property.
(4) Experimental
Distilled water was dropped into a 10 mL graduated cylinder until a volume of 1.00 mL was reached. The graduated cylinder was placed on the analytical balance and the balance was then tarred. The following procedure was repeated a total of 9 times: the graduated cylinder was removed from the balance and 10 drops of water were added using an eyedropper; the volume as read from the graduated cylinder and the mass as read from the balance were recorded. Only after a total of 9 trials of adding 10 drops was the graduated cylinder emptied.

(6) Discussion
The experimental procedure consisted of performing 9 trials of adding 10 drops of distilled water to a graduated cylinder. From the experimentally determined changes in mass and volume, a mean change in mass and volume was determined. These mean values were used to calculate the density, as mass divided by volume. Propagation of the error on the density calculated using the density formula was performed. Density calculated from these mean values should be reported as ρ
=
(
0.98
±
0.27
)
g
/
ml
, where the confidence limit is a propagated error of the density. Density was also calculated using the LINEST function in Excel, which performs linear regression using the method of least squares (1). In this case, the values of mass and volume as read experimentally were used, not the changes. So ρ
=
(
0.97
±
0.023
)
g
/
ml
using LINEST method.
The same value for density was obtained by graphing mass vs. volume, so that the slope is ρ
=0.97.
The literature value for density of water at 25°C is 0.997 g/ml (4). This is within 2% accuracy of the experimental results. The assumption of a 25°C room is a experimental limitation
that prevents true analysis of the results, as the appropriate reference value for density may be higher or lower depending on the true room temperature. Nevertheless, this error is expected to be small as density of water ranges from 0.998 g/ml at 25°C to 0.996 g/ml at 30°C.

A method for the detection of morphine is used to generate a calibration curve in which the assay response (y) is plotted versus morphine concentration (x, in mg/L). This gives a straight line with a slope (m) of 0.241 and a y-intercept (b) of 0.011, where y = mx + b. The slope of this line has a standard deviation of ±0.007, and the standard deviation of the intercept is ±0.006.

Write the proper reported data. 0.624, 0.613, 0.596, 0.607, 0.582arrow_forwardTo determine the organic material in a dried lake bed, the percent carbon by mass is measured at two different locations. To compare the means of the two different locations, it must first be determined whether the standard deviations of the two locations are different. For each location, calculate the standard deviation and report it with two significant figures. What is the calculated F value for comparing the standard deviations? Are the standard deviations for the two locations significantly different at the 95% confidence level? ample Location 1 (% C) Location 2 (% C) 1 10.40 10.10 2 10.30 10.90 3 10.30 10.20 4 10.40 10.70 5 10.30 10.30arrow_forward
