Categorize each as a determinate or an indeterminate error and further classify determinate errors as instrumental, method or personal. a) An unknown sample being weighed is hygroscopic. b) One component of a mixture being analyzed quantitatively by GC reacts with the column packing. c) A radioactive sample being counted repeatedly without any change in condition yields a slightly different count at each trial.

Ben ran through the experiment and found the best-fit line listed below for his standard calibration curve of absorbance vs concentration in M. y = 3214.0x + 0.0076 Ben then prepared a solution that had 5.00 mL 0.002 M iron(III) nitrate in 1 M nitric acid, 3.00 mL 0.002 M potassium thiocyanate, and 2.00 mL DI water. If the absorbance for the solution was 0.436, calculate the equilibrium concentration of iron(III) thiocyanate in the solution. Report your answer in mM with three places after the decimal.
The standard solution is prepared by dissolving a known mass of zinc pellets with conc. HCl. The solution is then neutralized, transferred into a 250 mL volumetric flask and filled to the calibration mark. If 0.9809 g of Zn was weighed using an electronic balance with a relative uncertainty of ± 0.01 % and the 250 mL volumetric flask has a known relative uncertainty of ± 0.06 %, what would be the absolute uncertainty of the concentration of the solution? The molecular weight of the zinc pellets is 65.39 g/mol
