E. A student is told to determine the density of a solid unknown cylinder. The mass of the unknown cylinder is 56.38 grams. The unknown cylinder is 4.95 cm high and has a radius of 1.28 cm. The student measures the correct mass but measures the height as 4.96 cm and the radius as 1.30 cm. What will be the percent error in the student's density value? |True- Experimental Percent Error = x100 True

Here are two possible methods for measuring the volume of an irregular shaped object: a) Add it to a graduated cylinder containing a known volume of water. Measure the change in the volume of the water after the object has been added. The graduated cylinder is graduated in 1 mL increments. b) Add the object to a vessel that is full of water. Collect and measure the mass of the water that is displaced on a digital balance that provides mass to the 0.001 g. Determine the volume using the tabulated densities of water in table 1.1. Which method would be more likely to produce a more precise measure of the volume of an object?

Calculate the percent error for the following measurements: Part 1 The density of alcohol (ethanol) is found to be 0.8045g / mL (true value = 0.7980g/mL). Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. Part 2 The mass of gold in an earring is analyzed to be 0.8426g (true value = 0.8644g). Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
You are in a game show and you are asked to pour a gram of sand in the balance, the person closest to the gram wins you measure 0.894g, individual 2 got 765 milligrams, individual 3 got 1.25g and individual 4 got 0.0489 kilogram what is the percent error for each? which one was more accurate? can the combined measurements be counted as precise?

Having trouble with conversion factors. The question says write conversion factors ( as ratios) for a)kilometers in 1 mile b) Liters in 1 cubic foot c) grams in one ounce I need to understand exactly where i get the conversions from. One of the questions I looked up in the book said to do yards in a meter and the answer is 1.0936/1m. The conversion i see in the book says 1m=1.094 yd=39.36 in These problems come out of Chemistry Atoms First 2nd edition Chapter 1
Record the volume of the liquid in the graduated cylinder to the correct number of significant figures.
A 17.0-cm-long cylindrical glass tube, sealed at one end, is filled with ethanol. The mass of ethanol needed to fill the tube is found to be 49.23 g. The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL. Calculate the inner diameter of the tube in centimeters. Express your answer in centimeters to three significant figures. diameter = Submit 15| ΑΣΦ Request Answer ? cm
I don't understand the wording. The least significant digit means the last digit? 7.700 X 2.1 = 16.17 would the uncertainty be 0.01 ? 2.132 + 17 + 4.04 = 23.172 would the uncertainty be 0.001 ?
