Answer:
The answer is 1.12 %
Explanation:
The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula
[tex]P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\ [/tex]
From the question
actual density = 8.96 g/mL
error = 8.96 - 8.86 = 0.1
We have
[tex]p(\%) = \frac{0.1}{8.96} \times 100 \\ = 1.1160714...[/tex]
We have the final answer as
1.12 %
Hope this helps you
