Assume that you found the average volume of water required to fill the graduated cylinder to the 8.00 ml mark was 7.95ml . calculate the percent error

To calculate the percentage error, we use:
% Error = (actual value - read value) x 100 / actual value 
% Error = -0.63%

The minus sign indicates that the actual value is less than the read value

Answer:

              %age Error  = 0.625 %

Solution:

Data Given:

                  Measured Value  =  7.95 mL

                  Accepted Value  =  8.0 mL

                  %age Error  =  ?

Step 1: Calculate difference between Accepted and Measure value:

                Difference  =  Accepted Value - Measure Value

                Difference  =  8.0 mL - 7.95 mL

                Difference  =  0.05 mL

Step 2: Calculate %age Error as;

                %age Error  =  (Difference in Values ÷ Accepted Value) × 100

                %age Error  =  (0.05 mL ÷ 8.0 mL) × 100

                %age Error  =  0.00625 × 100

                %age Error = 0.625 %
