6. (6 pts \textendash 3 pts per error) Describe one potential experimental error that occurred or could have occurred during the experiment to cause the calculated average density values to be inaccurate by being too high. Then describe a different experimental error that would cause the average density values to be too low. Be specific!

Step 1
If the volume measurements are consistently overestimated, the calculated density values will be higher than the actual values. Show more…

List at least two reasons (experimental errors) why a student's experimental ratio might not match the one from question #7 (aside from human errors, mechanical errors, calculation errors or weighing errors). Be specific about how these experimental errors would affect the final result.

1. what is the main source of error in the determination of density? 2. Do the results by using a larger sample demonstrate the advantage of having a larger sample in the scattering experiment? Explain
