    Experiment 1 (week 2) The purpose of this experiment is to become familiar with the precision and accuracy of scientific glassware. I figured the smaller the glassware the more accurate the measurements would be. Which when we were preforming the experiment proved my theory. As the glassware got smaller the easier it was to get the accurate amount of water into the glassware. We went from a big flask to a small beaker to an even smaller pipette. We used a scale to get the appropriate weight

    household chemicals together. Accuracy is the magnitude in which a certain measurement agrees with the standard worth for that measurement (Dictionary‚ 2011). Precision is how close the measured standards are to each other (Math is fun‚ 2011). Society depends on accuracy and precision in everyday life. These two relationships are often substituted freely‚ but both have crucial differences.   Businesses entail both accurate and precise measurements to stay in business. Accuracy states that something is

    Spectrophotometer Introduction In scientific experiments‚ correct measurements are required to achieve precise and accurate data. Precision is the degree to which several measurements provide answers very close to each other. Accuracy describes the nearness of a measurement to the standard or true value. Certain measuring devices are used to attain precision and accuracy. One example is the Air displacement pipette or the micropipettes. The micropipettes are measuring tools used to transfer liquid
