- A determination of acetaminophen in 10 separate tablets of Excedrin Extra Strength Pain Reliever gives the following results (in mg). 139.7140.9138.9 139.4 139.1 141.2138.2 139.3 138.7139.3 Based on the mean and standard deviation of the results, to how many significant figures should the mean value of the acetaminophen mass be reported?

Dr. Caras was characterizing a cytochrome (an iron containing protein) from a new strain of bacteria. He obtained eight measurements of the percent iron in the protein: 0.3205%, 0.3202%, 0.3196%, 0.3198%, 0.3316%, 0.3197%, 0.3208%, and 0.3197%. Calculate the mean () and standard deviation (s) for these results. x = Use the Grubbs test to determine if one of these values is an outlier. What is the value of Gealeulated? Gcalculated = Should this potential outlier be rejected with 95% confidence? Critical values of G can be found in this table. The potential outlier should be kept. The potential outlier should be rejected.

AP BIO (1) An analytical balance is used to measure the mass of 200µl of water in triplicate. The following measurements are recorded: 0.1983g, 0.1990g, 0.1884g. (A) Calculate the mean value for these three mass determinations. 0.1952 g (B) Use the mean value from (A) to determine the percent error..  19.52%   ???

For the numbers 116.0, 97.9, 114.2, 106.8 and 108.3, find the rangeb and 90% confidence interval for the mean.

7. A procedure for measuring the amount of creatinine in blood was applied to a standard blood sample and the following results were produced: 0.787, 0.812, 0.796, 0.739, 0.802, and 0.823 mg/dL.  a) Can any of the data points be rejected by the Grubbs test? b) What is the 95% confidence interval for the data?

Find the mean and median of each of the following sets of data. Determine the deviation from the mean for each data point within the seats and find the mean deviation for each set. Use a spreadsheet if it is convenient. (a) 0.0110  0.0104. 0.0105

7. From the normal curve of error, find the probability that a result is outside the limits of ±2σ from the mean. What is the probability that a result has a more negative deviation from the mean than -2σ?

1. σ=[(Σd2)/(n-1)]½ n= number of trials d= measured value - mean σ=[(8.50mL-8.74mL)2+(9.72mL-8.74mL)2+(8.00mL-8.74mL)2/(3-1)]½ 2. σ=[(Σd2)/(n-1)]½ n= number of trials d= measured value - mean σ=[(10.69-11.52)2+(11.80-11.52)2+(12.07-11.52)2/(3-1)]½

Calculate mass index

You are checking the accuracy of a volumetric flask marked 10.00 mL . To calculate the volume of water contained in the flask, you first measure the mass of the empty flask and the mass of the flask filled with water and take the difference. Then, you correct for the buoyancy factor and divide by the density of the water. The result of 8 such measurements is given in the table. Calculate the 95% confidence interval for these measurements with a mean of 10.03.
