Worksheet: Percent Error Name \( \qquad \) Maria Elsa salazar \( \qquad \) Period Solve each of the following problems. Show all your work and remember to include units!! 1. As the result of experimental work, a student finds the density of a liquid to be \( 0.1369 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} \). The known density of that liquid is \( 0.1478 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} \). What is the percent error of this student's work?

Question 1 (2 pts): The measured density of galena is 7.9 g/ cm3. The known density of galena is 7.6 g/ cm3. Calculate the percent error. % error = Actual – Experimental x 100% Actual

In the laboratory, students used a balance and a graduated cylinder to collect the data shown in Table 7.17 . Calculate the density of the sample. If the accepted value of this sample is 7.01 $\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$ , calculate the percent error. (Chapter 2$)$
