QUANTITATIVE DATA

OBSERVATIONS/DATA

I. Determine the precision of the following apparatus (2pts each)

Apparatus Precision

50 mL graduated cylinder precise

10 mL graduated cylinder precise

thermometer precise

50 mL beaker precise

II. Determination of Volume using two different apparatus (1pt each)

Volume of water using graduated cylinder, mL 10mL

Volume of water using beaker, mL 15 or 20mL

III. Determination of the Density of Water using a Pipette

weight of beaker and water (1 pt) 38.5655g
weight of beaker (1pt) 28.6735g
weight of 10.00 mL water (2pts) 9.892g
volume of water 10mL
temperature of water (1pt) 2.7 or 2.6C
Density of water (3pts) 0.9892 g/mL or 989.2 kg/m^3
CHEMISTRY FOR ENGINEERS - LABORATORY ACTIVITY 2

Show calculation of density:

Density = mass/volume
D = 9.892g/10mL = 0.9892 g/mL
Conversion of g/mL to kg/m^3:
0.9892 g/mL divided by 1000 = 989.2 kg/m^3

IV. Determination of Volume using Dropper

Number of Drops (1pt each) Calibration,
Volume, mL mL/drop
T1 T2 Average (2pts each)
1.00 12 12 24/2 = 12 24+12 = 36

2.00 21 22 43/2 = 21.5 43+21.5= 64.5

marked test tube 72 70 142/2 = 71 142+71= 213

Show calculation of the volume of the marked test tube

T1 = 72 drops
T2 = 70 drops
