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

If the correct mass is 9.82g and the estimated mass is 9.67g, the percentage error is ~1.53% (1.52749490835%)

What is definition of area normalisation method in HPLC?

The goal of area normalization is to correct for sample size discrepances, that in a negative way affects the sum of all measured solutes. Example If 4 peaks are being measured and the sum total area of all peaks turns out to be less than or greater than 100 percent, Normalization corrects for this and shifts all peaks by the needed percentage to bring them to a sum of 100 percent. If the sum total equals 90 percent, then normalization will shift up each individual peak 10 percent, which will bring the sum up to 100 percent..

What is the percent of oxygen by mass in a pure sample of FeCr2O4?

To determine the percentage of oxygen in FeCr2O4, you would first calculate the molar mass of the compound (iron(II) chromite) using the atomic masses of each element (Fe = 55.85 g/mol, Cr = 51.996 g/mol, O = 16 g/mol). Then, calculate the molar mass percentages of each element within the compound, and finally, determine the percentage of oxygen by mass in the compound.
