A student used a pipette to measure 50.0 cm350.0\text{ cm}^350.0 cm3 of a standard solution.
The pipette is labelled 50.0±0.08 cm350.0 \pm 0.08\text{ cm}^350.0±0.08 cm3.
Calculate the percentage uncertainty in the volume measured using this pipette.
Use the equation:
percentage uncertainty=uncertaintyvolume measured×100\text{percentage uncertainty} = \frac{\text{uncertainty}}{\text{volume measured}} \times 100percentage uncertainty=volume measureduncertainty×100
