Is it true that an answer is as precise as the most precise measurement from which it was calculated?
Yes, the precision of an answer depends on the precision of the measurements used in the calculation. The number of significant figures in the answer should match the least number of significant figures in the measurements.
What determines the precision of a calculated result based on a measurement?
the precision of the least precise measuement
What determines the precision of a calculated result based on measurement's?
the precision of the least precise measuement
What does it mean to round to the least precise measurement?
Round to whatever non-zero digit is farthest to the left.
How is the precision of a calculated result related to the precision of the measurements used in the calculation?
the precision of the answer must have the same number of significant digits as the measurement with the least significant digits- the site explains the rules and how to identify significant digits
Which piece of lab equipment would be least useful in finding the precise density of an unknown liquid?
Electronic balance
When performing mathematical operations the final answer can only be as precise as the least precise number involved in the calculation. When adding and subtracting do we measure precision based on si?
Yes, when adding and subtracting, precision is measured based on significant figures (sig figs). The final result should be reported with the same number of decimal places as the measurement with the least number of decimal places among the values involved in the calculation. This ensures that the precision of the result reflects the least precise measurement.

What Renk the following in order from most precise to least precise?
To rank items from most precise to least precise, I would need to know the specific items you are referring to. Generally, precision could be determined by factors such as measurement accuracy, the specificity of information, or the level of detail provided. Please provide the specific items you want ranked, and I can assist you further!
How is the precision of a Calculator result related in the precision of the measurement used in the calculation?
The precision of a calculated answer is limited by the least precise measurements used in the calculation.
What is the correct order of the following scales of measurement from least precise to most precise?
The correct order of scales of measurement from least precise to most precise is nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. Nominal scales categorize data without a specific order, ordinal scales rank data but do not specify the magnitude of differences between ranks. Interval scales provide meaningful differences between values but lack a true zero point, while ratio scales include a true zero and allow for the comparison of absolute magnitudes.
Why beaker is least accurate?
Beakers are typically least accurate because they lack precise volume markings and are not designed for measuring volumes. They are primarily used for approximate volume measurements and mixing solutions. For greater accuracy, other glassware such as graduated cylinders or volumetric flasks should be used.
