Q

Examples of Systematic Errors?

A

Typical causes of systematic error include
Observational error

Imperfect instrument calibration

Environmental interference.

Forgetting to tare or zero a balance produces mass measurements that are always “off” by the same amount

Q

What are Random Errors?

A

Random errors are errors that cannot be avoided and are always present

They Arise from variations in how a student or students record a measurement

Q

How to detect Systematic Errors?

A
  • Analyse samples of known composition
  • Analyse ‘blank’ samples and verify that the instrument will give a zero result
  • Obtain results for a sample using multiple instruments to verify the accuracy of the instrument
