of sodium chloride (NaCI). Student A
pressed the tare button after weighing the
weighing paper and obtained the following
data. What is the mass (g) of NaCl from
Student A?
Mass of weighing paper (g)
0.0011
Mass of weighing paper + NaCl (g)
0.1050
Mass of the NaCI (g)
Your answer

Your answer
Archimedes, a famous Greek scientist, was given a problem by King Hieron II of Syracuse (Sicily). The king suspected that his crown, which was supposed to be made of pure gold, contained some silver alloy, and he asked Archimedes to prove or disprove his suspicion. (It turned out that the crown did not contain silver.) How would you experimentally determined whether or not the crown was pure gold? (Hint: The method came to Archimedes when getting into a full bathtub. See the footnote in Experiment 22 for Archimedes’ solution.)

Specifically, the researcher suspects that the better students choose to sit in the front of the room. To test this hypothesis, the researcher asks her colleagues to help identify a sample of n = 100 students who all sit in the front row in at least one class. At the end of the semester, the grades are obtained for these students and the average grade point average is M = 3.25. For the same semester, the average grade point average for the entire college is μ = 2.95 with σ = 1.10. Use a two-tailed test with α = .01 to determine whether students who sit in the front of the classroom have significantly different grade point averages than other students.NOTICE that you are asked to use α = .01!
