Answer: 5.72%
Explanation:
Given:
Experimental value of gas constant, R = 0.0878 L.atm/mol⋅K
Known value of gas constant, R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol⋅K
This percent error is defined as the difference in percentage between a measurement's real value and its observed value.
[tex]\text { Percent Error }=\frac{\mid \text { Experimental Value }-\text { Known Value } \mid}{\text { Known Value }} * 100[/tex]
[tex]\text { Percent Error }=\frac{\mid \text {0.0878}-\text { 0.0821 } \mid}{\text { 0.0821 }} * 100[/tex]
[tex]\bf{Percent \ Error = 5.72\%}[/tex]
