Explain the type of error they are incurring in their experiment. A. Marikit had very good precision but poor accuracy in her data. B. Volumetric flasks were placed inside the oven for drying before it was used. C. Trial 1 and 2 have values close to 30.0 mL while trial 3 gave 55.0 mL. D. The reagent used in determining copper was added incorrectly and gave a low yield.

1. Develop a detailed separation scheme for the separation and determination of the percent composition of your sample which will be a mixture of NaCl, NH.CL, and sand. You are expected to use the properties of the components listed below and some of the techniques listed in the table in the pre-lab queries (and used in Separations I). Keep in mind that any chemistry student should be able to pick up your scheme, understand it, and use it to complete the separation and calculation of % composition. Place the scheme on a separate sheet of paper.
