A percent error is when you find the difference, divide it by the accepted value, and multiply the answer by 100. The answer is the percentage you were off by.

The difference between an accepted value and an experimental value is called?
In science, and most specifically chemistry, the accepted value denotes a value of a substance accepted by almost all scientists and the experimental value denotes the value of a substance's properties found in a localized lab.
What does accepted value mean?
An accepted value is one that is obtained from a respected reference source and is one that has been validated by multiple experiments to be correct. This differs from your experimental value in that the latter is what you actually obtain from your experiment - which can vary depending on your level of skill and the materials used.
What is the measured the density of Copper to be 68.7 gcm3 The accepted density of Copper is 63.5 gcm3 What was your percent error?
percent error = [(experimental value - actual value)/(actual value)] x 100 so in this case: % error = [(68.7-63.50)/(63.5]x100
Why is experimenral value different from literature value in chimestry?
Due to experimental errors and limitations in the procedure done in the laboratory.
Does your value of R agree with the accepted value within your uncertainty limits?
It depends on the results of your experiment.
Can you calculate percent error of the results from an experiment?
(experimental value - accepted value)/accepted value x 100 This is an absolute value, so ignore any minus sign.
What is a percentage error?
The percentage error is how accurate your experimental values compared to the accepted value. The equation is: [(experimental value - accepted value) / accepted value] x 100

What is difference between the accepted value and the experimental value?
the answer is error or experimental error.
What is accepted density?
accepted density is a part of the equation of the percent error... i.e. :experimental value- accepted value/ accepted value x100% = percent error
What is the percent of error in evaluating the molecular mass of a compound if the experimental value was 105.2 amu and the known value was 107.5 amu?
The formula for percent error is |experimental value-accepted value|/accepted value. The lines stand for absolute value. They are there to prevent a negative percent error, seeing as that is not possible, and they have the same effect on the order of operations as a pair of parenthesis. ITS 2.1%
What factors do you think may cause the experimental value to be different from accepted value?
Instrumental error Calibration error Uncontrolled factors
Mass of a sample measured 9.67gwhat is the percent error if the correct mass is 9.82g?
percentage error= experimental value-accepted value/ accepted value x 100 (percentage error is negative only if the accepted value is larger than the experimental value) percentage error= 9.67-9.82/9.82 x 100 percentage error= -1.6
Under what condition will percentage error be negative?
it will be negative if the accepted value is less than the experimental value **********************2nd Opinion************ Don't you have that turned around?
How do you find absolute discrepancy...this is different from percent discrepancy?
Absolute discrepancy is the difference between the accepted value, aka theoretical value, and the measured or "experimental" value. This discrepancy is written as an integer with units (i.e. cm) as opposed to a percentage.
How close a measured value is to an accepted value is called a?
accuracy
What is the difference between true value and experimental value?
true value is something that is true and experimental value is some thing that has been experimental with
