Question

incomplete drying of analytical sample before weighing is an example of which error


​

Answer 1

Answer:

Three general types of errors occur in lab measurements: random error, systematic error, and gross errors. Random (or indeterminate) errors are caused by uncontrollable fluctuations in variables that affect experimental results.

Answer 2

Incomplete drying of the analytical sample before weighing is an example of Random error.

Explanation:

• Incomplete drying is a random error that is caused by uncontrollable fluctuations in variables.
• These variables affect the experiment and its results
• Random or indeterminate errors is the error that causes fluctuations in variables.
• There are other types of errors which include lab measurements, random error, systematic error, and gross errors.
• Incomplete drying of the analytical sample will show the presence of moisture and due to this, the variation in the actual weight will be visible.
