3-1. How many significant figures are there in the following numbers?
(a) 1.903 0
(b)0.0391 0
(c)
Suppose that in a gravimetric analysis, you forget to dry the filter crucibles before collecting precipitate. After filtering the product, you dry the product and crucible thoroughly before weighing them. Is the apparent mass of product always high or always low? Is the error in mass systematic or random?
Write each answer with a reasonable number of figures. Find the absolute and percent relative uncertainty for each answer.
Suppose that you used smaller volumetric apparatus to prepare solution by diluting role="math" localid="1663558223400" of wt\% up to . Find the uncertainty in0.250M.(Answer: .The uncertainty in density of concentratedoverwhelms all other smaller uncertainties in this procedure.)
