What is the relation between the standard deviation and the precision of a procedure? What is the relation between standard deviation and accuracy? The percentage of an additive in gasoline was measured six times with the following results: 0.13, 0.12, 0.16, 0.17, 0.20, 0.11%. Find the 90% and 99% confidence intervals for the percentage of the additive.
If you measure a quantity four times and the standard deviation is 1.0% of the average, can you be 90% confident that the true value is within 1.2% of the measured average?
Write down three most common errors in thermogravimetric analysis. Identify them as systematic or random errors and discuss how you can minimize the errors for better results.
