100%
A gravimetric analysis of silver in a sample X
was performed three times. The result of the
students for the mass of silver were 0.2351g,
0.2361g, and 0.2341g. The "true value" for
the mass of silver is 0.5211g. Check all that
applies!
The percent error from the true value is 55%
O The precision of the gravimetric analysis was
very bad, i.e. the results are unacceptable.
The mean value is 0.24g
The RSD is 0.4g
The percent error from the true value is
54.88%
The mean value is 0.2351g
The RSD is 0.43%
The precision of the gravimetric analysis was
good.
