Calculate the percent error if the experimental value of the density of copper is 21.2 g/cm3 and the accepted value is 22.1 g/cm3. A. 4.19% B. 4.07% C. 4.25% D. 4.02%
The percent error if the experimental value of the density of copper is 21.2 g/cm3 and the accepted value is 22.1 g/cm3 is 4.07%. [ Percent error = ( accepted value - experimental value ) / accepted value expressed in % = ( 22.1 - 21.2 ) / 22.1 = 0.9 / 22.1 = 0.0407 or 4.07% ]
