Answer:
D-(2.63 %)
Explanation:
Percentage Error
Is the difference between the approximate and the exact or accepted value of a measurement, as a percentage of the exact or accepted value.
The formula is:
[tex]\displaystyle \delta=\left |\frac{va-ve}{ve} \right |\cdot 100\%[/tex]
The accepted value of the volume of a liquid sample is va=15.20 ml and the student's measurement is ve=14.80 ml. The percentage of error is:
[tex]\displaystyle \delta=\left |\frac{15.20-14.80}{15.20}\right |\cdot 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \delta=\left |\frac{0.4}{15.20}\right |\cdot 100\%[/tex]
[tex]\delta=2.63\%[/tex]
Correct choice: D-(2.63 %)
