If the accepted value for the density of rubber is 1.15 g/mL, what is your percent error for each rubber
stopper?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.34%

Explanation:

The  accepted value for the density of rubber is 1.15 g/mL

Let the calculated value for the density of rubber is 1.2 g/mL

We need to find the percent error for rubber stopper. It can be calculated as follows :

[tex]\text{Error}=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-calculated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100\\\\\text{Error}=\dfrac{1.15-1.2}{1.15}\times 100\\\\\text{Error}=4.34\%[/tex]

So, the percent error for the density of rubber is 4.34%.
